Not sure if there is anyone waiting to buy Kraus sink or taps but there is a promo going on now.

$25 Amazon.com Gift Card with Select $250 Kraus Purchase

If I'm not wrong, they will give you a $25 gift card to use at your next purchase. Not discount $25 from the order.

Quite a lot of sink are in the promo.

Too bad for those who just bought your sink....

another item from the shipment - the carpet ! kim's didn't get shipped out due to a screwup on their side... again, on TB, very impt to pick sellers cos this one immediately checked and saw they didn't ship one out and immediately offered to ship kim's out with no arguments

anyway, mine is a grey silk custom made 1.8x1.8m version...

closeup of the fibre - it actually is very smooth to my feet and doesn't feel hot...

the underside of the carpet does not come with an anti-slip base, so for those with kids, better put one...

unpacking it i had to vacuum both the underside of the carpet as well as after laying it, the surface as well...have to say the quality is pretty good for the price...

note : after laying it out, i realised that the carpet looks different from different sides so before you lay one of these down, take a walk around all 4 sides to decide which side shows the best colour...in the end, i turned the carpet 180 degrees to get the colour i wanted...

I LIKE THIS and the size is perfect for me ! How much and where to buy from? Hunting for carpets ...

Hi Kim76 & all ,

... Anyone bought curtains from taobao before? Good? pls advise?

I am also looking at their T5 led for the cove light (sorry, I am not an expert) and what really impress me was the huge diff. in $$ savings....

To my understanding, the tubes can actually join up to form one single stretch and I just connect the last end to the power supply to light up right?

Thank you for any advises!

Personally, hard to judge based on curtains, unless you don't mind off the rack measurements. Kim & I engaged a curtain contractor based in JB, pretty good & not high on charges.

I think curtain better to get it locally. The dimension is critical. Unless you are planing to get a big roll of cloth and DIY yourself...

T5 led I got no experience. I'm using the traditional T5 florescent tube. But I believe it should be doable...

My new clock from TB, to replace the previous faulty one...this one is a cheong version of the famous Swiss Railway clock...

So far, it's been pretty accurate and is really quiet...must find time this weekend to hang it up...

The coasters on the top right of the picture above, closeup here...they are bigger than normal and the cute pictures are cool !

in case someone asks, the door stopper link can be found somewhere earlier in kim's blog...

tihs is pretty much it for the time-being from TB for me...
