virgo2829 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2008 updates 03 May 2008 finally went for tile selection today. been to LSH & Hafary, realised that LSH much more crowded than Hafary...personally i felt that the staffs at LSH are much more friendly than Hafary. was served by the boss without realizing it till ID told us..hahaha..a very friendly person and gave some suggestions too got most of my tiles from LSH and 1 from Hafary as LSH does not have the colour i want.. think we choose more to neutral colours and i got a feeling that my house is turing into a resort liao..cos all beige la, brown la...kekeke very shacked liao, gonna zzz after this..more updates soon Pictures time!! toilet wall & floor tiles - rough surface, like those seen in resort toilets..lolz living room floor - normal bah kitchen floor - can see the patchy designs?? kitchen wall - the dark dark brown will be used as the backsplash in between cabinets. can see the fine lines design in between?? pardon me for my poor photography skills hor, quite difficult to capture the true colour and texture leh, think this is my best masterpiece liao babytan, nice tiles.....told u urs and mine totally different mah.....

applefreak 1 Report post Posted May 4, 2008 hi babytan, the textured tile as backsplash might give you a lot of cleaning headaches next time leh the oil and dirt will get trapped in the lines, so you gotta clean the tile one line by one line :bangwall: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skywolf 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2008 Nice browns. We have lots of browns too. Thought the buyer allowing you guys to stay on first? Darrenelle, LSH has a branch just before Hafary when you walked towards Hafary... It's the first shop (i think) and Hafary is the last shop along that stretch.
