yaya it will be good to change the colour of the frames but shall only work on it after we move in and recooperate our energy. So taxing to do reno actually.

The bed is in but we have yet to buy the mattress. Broke at this point as we are also having our AD next month. Our dream mattress is Serta but shall probably let that go and settle for something less then $800 for now and upgrade after we have more money. hahaha

That's the way to go ba. Pay for the impt stuff.. esp AD coming... then work out the rest. Who knows.. you might get enough angpao money to upgrade immediately? Happy preparing!!!

Both your toilets are very very beautiful done and designed.... I must say I LOVE the colours.. the basin are round or curvy, it really balanced out the linear designs.... I shall look at round or curvy basins now. :)

And your wallpaper at your MBR.... is it from Goodrich.... very classy and elegant! Great taste

Hi Smallboy, thank u for your compliments. I loved my basins too. hehe. I try to avoid stuff with pointy edges if possible.

The wallpaper is from a shop recommended by a fellow forummer. It's Golden City at Joo Jiat Complex. They have some of the range from Goodrich too. The price is slightly cheaper. I guessed it's the GST that makes a difference as well.

Hope it helps...

We pasted our decal on the kitchen glass sliding door...Finally!!! Amanda from Decorette enclosed a small sample piece (which is the red birdy you see on top of our monogram decal) for us to do a trial prior to putting up the actual decal. Some how, the red birdy seems fit to stay. The colour kind of blend with our red kitchen theme

However, we may do some correction on the text (our names and the date). Firstly, I think they are a bit too small and non-proportionate. Secondly, we pasted the date a bit slanted by accident. Arggg...

Took me quite a while to find a red kettle. Why are kettles always so boring looking in Singapore. Sigh...

[pinkpetter 0]

Wow. I love the decal! I think it gives a very classic feel to the door which would otherwise be a little plain... mm nice nice. It's not that kettles are boring.. just that nice kettles are expensive!

Hi Pinkpetter, thanks for the compliment. Eh... I sort of 'created' that monogram on my own with photoshop suite. I wanted a 4 by 4 border initally but could not achieve a satisfactory outcome. Time is not on our side, especially when we have to juggle work, reno, AD & the wedding banquet. If only we can take time off to do and plan for reno...and get paid as well lah. hehehe.

The decal was an absolute must. Otherwise, we may have people banging against it The birdy is really an "accidental design". From a sample trial to a permanent residence. hahaha.

For nice kettles in Singapore, got meh? Where? Where? Please share

Btw, it's from you that I got to know Decorette. hehehe. Thanks Thanks

aiya we should all share good sources.

I didn't think of the decal as an accident preventor.

eh? I always see nice kettles in expensive designer places like those on Level 2 on Marina Square... park mall, etc. But I don't really check them out since my mom is used to using her cheapo silver one

[ilmare612 0]

hahaha... no worries and thanks for sharing. As of now, I am glad I managed to hunt the red kettle. So shall live with it for now

Hey, anyone know where I can get nice and looooooooong table runner? It's for my TV console which is about 230cm. Most of those we saw are shorter.

nice kitchen and decal, ilmare!

love the wallpaper on MBR too, is that the only wall with wallpaper?

[ilmare612 0]

Hi xherion, thanks for the compliments. Currently, that's the only wall with wallpaper as it's suppose to be a feature wall in the MBR. We are doing another wallpaper / mural at the passage way to MBR but due to time constraint, we will most likely do it after our AD and after we move in

We have plans to wallpaper some parts of our dining room too but that's also a later project I suppose. Are you going to wallpaper your house too? I love wallpaper. It gives the place a touch of class.

hi

I am also looking for decal on glass panels. How much did you pay for this whole set?

[ilmare612 0]

Hi Smallboy, I guessed it depends if you are getting them to design one for you or take any of their existing designs. As I "designed" it on my own, so only got them to print. It cost me S$25 + S$5 Postage. Total S$30.
