Hi peeps

I've been following Renotalk for a long time. Quite a few forummers have received pms from me asking about abt this & that. Thanks to all who have provided me with valuable & detailed information, ideas and knowledge to my future renovation. I've just rented out my unit and in 6 months time it'll be my turn to do up my dream home. Though it's a bit kiasu to start my reno blog so soon, hope you guys can stay with me & give some ideas and comments.

This is my own design created in Floorplanner. Cant upload the original floorplan from HDB i think because it's in pdf format. Will try to scan it in later.

Feel free to give some comments or ask questions if you dun understand my design k? Hehe..

Hi Pinklady, actually i'm really anxious to renovate my home until swee swee. But hor renovation needs alot of money so i think while collecting rent i can save at the same time ma. Hopefully i can save enuf to renovate after the 6 months. Hee.

I dunno how to upload my plan from Floorplanner leh. Can anyone kind soul teach me?

Hi iluvmybeans,

Welcome!!

This is what I usually do.. I press the 'printscreen' button on my keyboard, paste it to the program 'paint' and then save it as a picture file. Afterwhich, I will upload the picture to the photobucket and then paste the photobucket link here (under the picture).

Hope it helps.

By the way, me and hubby also at the initial phase of planning the reno. Hee.. only difference is that we already shifted in. Where are you staying now?

Hi Ivy

Actually we wanted to put a pool table in that room but due to space constraints & the fact that we both love Karaoke, we have decided to create an entertainment room instead.

Just wondering if anyone knows how much it will cost to sound proof a small room? Do they make the walls sound proof or? Cos 1 side of that room is the back of my WIW and the other is the partition for my TV so i only have 2 walls to do sound proofing. Wonder if it's feasible.

Not so lucky la just that now still young & my baby is only 1 yr plus. Dun need so many rooms YET. Hehe..

haha thanks thanks.. it's nice to design and plan for your own home.. then there's some satisfaction right?

I like how you've planned your WIW to go into the bath like that... And having your MBR in the room behind is better... Putting all the bedrooms together. Great planning.

My kitchen? it's normal for now.. going to do a nice dining in it soon
