My daughter is taking lessons now. Old liao, so must step down for the young generation to take over. So next time when you hear piano playing, it's probably from my place. Yeah, agree with u that a piano takes centrestage in the living room. I've always dreamed of having a grand piano in the middle of my living room, but must move to a landed property to fulfill this dream. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

countrylover 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2008 Hi Country lover, Congrats on the move!! Can't wait to see the "completed" look!! Thanks, but my home looks very rojak now. It looks like a jungle, more than a country cottage. Some of my furnishings are still not in yet. Guess will take another mth or so before it looks more decent. Will try to take pics of my progress and upload here to share. I'm losing sleep big time, not used to staying in my new home yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

countrylover 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2008 Hi gege, Your place is so nicely decorated!! Love the country kitchen!! Yeah totally agree! A very fresh modern country look indeed with all those French white furniture. I hoped mine will turn out to be something similar. I initially wanted everything white in my home but on 2nd thoughts, it's not practical at all, esp when I have 2 young kids at home! End up, all turn out black by the end of the year. I especially would want my kitchen cabinet to be white but cleaning up will be an issue as we are gonna cook and bake quite often. The only place I've maintained the white theme is the MBR. The rest of the rooms and living room, I'm basically using teak wood furniture and other dark woods. Gege, care to share how much u spent on reno and who's your ID? I love your bathroom mirror. Where did u buy it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some light-hearted moments of my girls having fun during the painting process... We've finished painting the living, study and children's bedroom. Targeting to finish painting the MBR by today.

countrylover 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) It's always exciting when moving to a new home esp for the kids. Can see that your kids are very very excited about moving in soon...congratulations! Actually we've moved in to stay since last Sat. Even though the uncompleted reno has caused us some inconveniences, my girls are still thrilled to stay in a new home anyhow. I've promised to let them have a princess-themed room and they are eagerly looking forward to it! For their room, we had it painted in ICI Dulux Fantasy. Check out the cottage-look window sill... Some princess themed accessories waiting to make their way into my princesses' room.
