We Bought A Flat, And Made It Our Home

Recommended Posts

Ya la......I am one fierce mum like one forumer quoted in my t-blog. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

I recalled one day when my second son didn't close the sliding doors of the 'green' wardrobe in his room. When I came home & see the 'cha pa lang' things inside, and yet he left the doors wide open, I slammed the doors until the painting at the top corner of the casing gave way and has crack line!! I told the truth to ID and he get the contractor to touch up the corner for me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Yea, it is expensive - paid over $1100 for the Blum runners (I choose the best of the best series!!) and hinges, and $690 for the colored interior. Then, another $220 for tall panel to shield the view of stove from back entrance. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/jawdrop.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":jawdrop:" border="0" alt="jawdrop.gif" />

LOL, Blum too ex for me la, but it makes me :dribble:

Wah!!! i like BLUM too... but also cannot afford the whole system. so only have the hinges.... :(

Same!! Felt it was too expensive so only use the hinges. Bleh, completely envious. But then again, sometimes slamming of drawers can feel quite rewarding when expressing distaste. It's like slamming down the phone - pressing the End button feels so inadequate! Need to like bang down for effect!

Hi Sis May Dream, not really mordern la, we are laying parquet on the top, now deciding or whether to use those longer ones or standard size parquet

Reno proceeding well!

Thanks footprint, hopefully the contractors can keep the momentum :)

Your Balcony is spacious! Envy you! Can put a Swing and this is just a suggestion:

Maybe for those using Blum, I suggest keep 1 door without Blum system, so u can always only slam that particular door.. .. :o:D
