heartya 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2009 hello lovely people, we have moved in for about 2 weeks, and living ourselves is no joke - housework, travelling back to oldies' places is already enough to wear us out... and we still have to live with all the imperfections and problems left by the renovations, with our ID MIA. oh well, despite all the headaches and troubles he has caused us, life still goes on a few black sheep in our lives serve to help us learn what to look out for in future... will post a review some time later; let's focus on the happier stuff first. Hi Beany, I totally understand how you feel when you mentioned 'living ourselves is no joke - housework, travelling back to oldies' places is already enough to wear us out... and we still have to live with all the imperfections and problems left by the renovations, with our ID MIA. oh well, despite all the headaches and troubles he has caused us, life still goes on a few black sheep in our lives serve to help us learn what to look out for in future... ' Yes, life goes on but we have become wiser with the experiences gained during the renovation. I guess it's not just knowledge we've gotten on carpentry material, 3D perspective, blah blah blah but I guess we've also gain more experiences on communication skill, EQ, ID/people management... It will soon be over and your place looks gd.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beany0811 1 Report post Posted October 8, 2009 Hi Beany, may i ask where did you purchase the runners for the dining table? your place really looks gd! hi heartya, the runner was bought from thomson plaza - but i think many other places sell similar designs; saw it in sembawang shopping centre n amk central too - our primary concern when looking for the runner was the length, cos our dining table is 2m, so we needed one which was @ least 2.5m, heng could find it.

beany0811 1 Report post Posted October 8, 2009 may i check wat is the dimension of ur display cabinet in your study and how much was it? my hubby needs something like tt also for his collections.. tq hey butterfingerzz, the display cabinet is 6.5ft (length) by 3ft (height). the initial plan was to have the whole thing with glass panels, but we decided on storage so that the boxes fm the toys could be kept - apparently so they dun lose their value... and also cos of safety concerns - the glass panels could only go up to a certain width for it to be stable. so ur hubby is also a toy collector... haha, guys and their quirks Congrat! beany! I am looking forward to your hubby's display cabinet... heehee.. Must show me a pic if convience....when it is filled up with his toys. I like your entrance and foyer area very much...esp the entrance...Are u going to hang something on it? hey red devil, no prob. they r slowly being brought over from the hubby's place, where they have spent the last 10/20 years... for now, its still as empty! the hubby will be more than happy to take many pictures and show off his precious collection Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
