amrasenelya 1 Report post Posted November 3, 2009 Hehe, icic. How about with padded bedhead instead of the laminate? Then ur can save on buying the bedhead. Kill 2 birds with one stone - flush that wall and also have a bedhead. Angel, ahh... u talkin abt something like newnyew's? tall tall one? anw, i think cannot put laminate on wall rite? can only put on wardrobes and cabinets? but we bought our bed alr, and the bedframe + headboard came free with it.. hehe..

Oh, I assume that wen u said u initially wanted to do a magnified version of my 1st laminates, u mean to do a false wall with the laminate leh. Then I thought since false wall is wood, the carpenters will be able to paste the laminate on it mah. hahaha, guess I misunderstood your meaning bah. Haha, so fast bought ur bed liao arh? Cools~ One less thing to worry and search. Edited November 3, 2009 by Angel81 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rasp 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2009 Rasp, yah, i also worry abt the dust part of it.. but if white glossy laminates, then the one who's sleeping facing the wardrobe can see reflection... dats why we were considering textured.. anw i like your house cus u keep it simple and easy to maintain! Actually i think the pop out is not very thick, maybe like 0.5mm? i think.. Hee.. thanks. Cause we're lazy bums.. so always looking for ways to reduce the maintenance. Now it become a habit, always look at the maintenance first. Hee.. I think we saw some laminates with design but flat and not glossy. You might want to check them out at the factory. They got alot of samples. About the wall behind the bed, you can 'laminate' it if you are doing a feature wall (to flush the beam) and you can get them to customise your bedside table with the feature wall. Another way to 'laminate' wall is to do wall paper. But Im not sure about the maintenance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EDL or Lamitak? both at Sungei Kadut rite? very far... oh.. can stick laminates on false wall? hmm.. maybe we'll check with Henry next time we meet him.. wallpaper hard to maintain.. last time my parents house, after 1-2 yrs the wallpaper peeled off, then the white wallpaper somehow got yellow streaks on it... like water stain even though no leaking anywhere nearby.. so its a nono for wallpaper for me, although some of them are reaally nice..

We went to the EDL at Sungei Kadut only. If I didn't remember wrong, we took the feeder bus from Woodland interchange and the bus dropped us just directly opposite the factory. Don't have to walk. Hee.. Thanks to XBB who taught us to take bus. Errr.. I mean laminating the feature wall, you know the one that is behind the tv console, not the false wall. If you are doing false wall (partition wall), I am not sure whether it can be laminate anot. Hee.. Umm.. I read that your guy is particular with fs. If so, I guess you guys will probably flush the wall as there is usually a horizontal beam protruding slightly out (horizontal) that will be above the bed boardhead. Hee.. usually a no-no for most fs follower. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shanbis 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2009 hiya, I've seen this laminate b4 I actually choose as my first choice for my shoe cabinate but was turned down by my carpenter. It is because laminates come in small pieces, it will be difficult to align them nicely. Maybe more applicable for flat surface so you might be ok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
