fifteenmay 40 Report post Posted October 11, 2010 Next, my girls' bedroom and studyroom For this room and the next, no build in furnishing done. This arrangement is intended to be temporary, so everything is bought off the shelves for easy portability and rearrangement when needed. Paint colours are the girls' choices, though. single storage beds Actually wanted to have a place a side table between the two beds, but not possible else cannot open wardrobe. Also did not want to flush bed against the window wall, since we prefer a proper passage to access the bed and windows. So this looks like the only feasible arrangement - thanks to hdb for their superb design wardrobe That's 2 units of wardrobe - dimension is perfect as they fit nicely into the wall - no wastage of space. And a sliding wardrobe is a must - too tight to open a casement door otherwise! once again, curtains in their bedroom Now to the studyroom. These 3 units of bookshelves, again, fit the entire wall nicely. The one on top is from our old house - still good - but no place to put liao - so ended up on top!!! And of course, the place where I get my daily dose of RT - pardon the mess! Did I say 90% of things in the house are mine??? Study table I love the study tables - beautiful standalone unit complete with racks for their barang barang, and shelving for their files and books! Photo was taken in the day, was a little too glaring and pulling the curtains did not help much, since we had chosen a thinner fabric for this room. Will try to retake the photos at night for comparison. Nice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flamedav 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2010 So you don't plan to engage a mover? Actually if you have no big items, it's ok to move on yr own slowly - that's what one of our neighbours did too. In this way, it may also make unpacking easier just curious - I think all of you are newly wed right? So mostly moving personal things, instead of moving an entire house? Think i'm the oldest here liao Initially we thought it should be simple since we are moving just our bedroom. However as we move trips by trips, our items seems to be filling up our new house already Well what can I say .... these are the items we have collected from our 5 years of marriage.

junel 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2010 thanks, june. I think nail remover also same kind of chemical right? Got that kind of smell .. anyway, I also dun polish nail one ... thanks thanks, have finally started cooking proper meal liao. So far the hood works well, hmm .. but then I have not really done any oily cooking yet, so maybe a bit early to comment. I think also depends on kitchen tiles - I am really glad we changed the kitchen tiles, bc it's those non-sticky type lor. toilet tiles original hdb one very jialat - once dirty patch must clean right away, otherwise hard to scrub off later! Also the metal strips look like rusty one! So sick .. and toilet tiles not evenly laid .. angry angry - now a bit regret did not do overlay toilet tiles ... Ya the toilet tiles is a big headache!! i also regret not overlaying my toilet tiles... it very unsightly!! Froggy where u buy the kitchen bar with hooks - suction base? been looking for this type of bars.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
