ivy 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2009 Went up to check my place and buy food for the tilers. They are tiling the toilet floors now and will also start tiling the access area outside. FINAL DECISION, this time really final, hubby changed his mind again and yes we gonna have wall tiles for kitchen after all... Spent the whole day today to hunt for wall light for my access area. Our access area is small and thus we do not need a very bright light, plus our water feature will have light also. FSM advice us to use cosy lighting at that area and suggested yellow lighting. After going to so many places, finally tracked down this light. I'm taking the one on the right, cos I need yellow colour at that area. If I have a choice I actually prefer the silver one.. I do not want to use the traditional lantern looking kind of wall light. Very happy to find this and at a reasonable price of $90. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aubrey 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2009 can u believe my bedroom light is like yours but its brown & rounded? just to let u know, its too dark for me! hence i had to take out the "covering" and leave 3 naked bulbs dangling around and justify it to friends who ask me that its an industrial inspired piece! so if u want cosy, its okay. if not, pls reconsider. cos in the light shop, u cant tell since alot of other lights are on at the same time, it looks nice. when u bring it home, its another story. washing? i just dunk it into a small pail of water and spin it around (like how WM spins your clothes) then leave it to dry.

Hi aubrey I know what you mean. I am quite sure that this light won't be bright enough as main illumination. however my access area is really small and I'll have corridor light thrown into the area as the new lift lobby will be just right outside the gate. FSM advice is for that area not to have too bright lights. I am considering to incoporate some lights into my shoe cabinet as well. I'll not be doing much outside except wear shoes. If after installing really too dark hor.. then will then go hunt for another. ohh my water feature also got light. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess nothing much can be done, cos the previous owner level up the balcony in line with the living room floor. but not worries, I'm installing window grilles. I am pretending that I have full length windows :x always wanted that.. but my last place dun have now still dun have... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So i guess I better not do.
