Sunshinedream 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 <u><b>Day god-only-knows-what: occupants needed</b></u>So...For those who were wondering, the handover WAS on time! Yes, that, alongside training, was what was keeping me from coming online. All the shifting in, etc... my house is steadily becoming messier, and I'm longing for the days where there was absolutely NOTHING in the house! But too bad, unless I one day have so much money that I can buy a huge house where I can keep most rooms empty (hey, one can always dream)... in the meantime, my house will just have to serve its function as the place where Pinkhubby and I keep all our stuff.Pardon the messiness, we are still unpacking...Let's start with the foyer<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v521/yuene/Renovation/Foyerwcabinetandseating.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />The shoe cabinet is in. We put it in the corner there because 1) behind the door, it keeps getting whacked. I don't want to cause a dent on my new things so soon! The seating bench next to it is actually one of our old pieces of furniture from IKEA. It served as our old TV/PC bench when the PC was still outside. Since it was too good to throw away, we saved it with this in mind.<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v521/yuene/Renovation/dining-1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" /Dining table is in too! We're going to purchase a matching piano-white seating bench for the times when we have guests over.<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v521/yuene/Renovation/Kitchcomplete.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />Kitchen with the orange backsplash. Yes, the gas cylinder issue has been rectified, along with the pull-out basket. On to the study...<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v521/yuene/Renovation/studytablealreadymessy.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />This is Pinkhubby's room (at least for now). Needless to say, it's already messy. We're going to get one more item from IKEA here, which is a white cabinet above. I'm very mindful of overloading that shelf. And that is HIS pink netbook there.<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v521/yuene/Renovation/studywdisplay.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />The other side of the room holds his display cabinet, with his toys inside. The second shelf is filled with my collectibles.HiMay I know where you get the study table? Nice! Or custom make?May I know your contractor good or not? Cos I thought of getting good one.Thanks!

Cos I thought of getting good one.Thanks!Hi Sunshinedream!Oh dear, I haven't been on RT for a long while, thanks to work... I hope this doesn't come too late for you! I got my study table at *drumroll* IKEA! Yes, of all places, it just had to be from there. How's it holding up? Pretty alright, I would say. Not exactly the best material (for obvious reasons), but it's functional, and it looks presentable. Plus, it's nice and long, to hold pinkhubby's nonsense.My contractor was excellent. I would say in terms of design, you might want to get another guy, but in terms of responsibility and promptness, and value for money, Edmund is among the best. Do be a little wary of his electrician though, he doesn't do that great a job in terms of straightness of the laying of the trunking, but otherwise they have done a great job for my place.

The original plan was to locate it in the other toilet, but we realised that there was not enough space...So in the end I decided to put it outside. Maybe one day I will box it up, but I doubt it.<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v521/yuene/Renovation/rainshower.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />My rainshower set is up! ^^<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v521/yuene/Renovation/Sink.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />As is my (as my contractor calls it) 'cute' sink and tap.Hey I've been looking for such a small sink.

yuene 0 Report post Posted November 1, 2011 Hey I've been looking for such a small sink. Mind sharing where to get it?Hi Tiek,Sorry for the late reply! Been very busy at work. I got mine from Sim Siang Choon for about $78? I can't quite remember the price. But they do have a (albeit) limited range of sinks designed to fit into corners of bathrooms. Be careful about splashing, though!Hi Zio,Sent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
