theitsybits 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) Week 18I've started moving thing over bit by bit and making the home a livable, warm home to come back to.This is the feature wall in the middle of the living room. No photos for this feature wall as it faces the corridor and it's bad according to fengshui. The husband just rearranged in with the present from friends during ROM and some DIY deco for ROM. Gonna reuse them for pre-wed shoot and wedding!And this is my blackboard magnet bomb-shelter door with my ugly handwriting. Around the world in 80 years with the husband. We also took the plunge and bought the smile table, papa chair and a console from Lorgans. The papa chair will only make it here in December while the other 2 should arrive mid-October. Our TV is currently on the floor.I fell in love with this TV console. I love the slanted legs and sexy lines. It's different from the normal retro consoles, at least to me..they even have similar shade of flooring as us..we'll be getting this in oak, a lighter shade that matches my dining table and sideboard.And we're getting this smile coffee table because the husband likes it. it's sexy too, we are also getting this in a lighter shade, with oak wood instead of teak.And my beloved papa lounge chair in a similar fabric..did not choose turquoise as they did not have the exact shade nor fabric that I liked..some people call this scandinavian green and i first fell in love with the papa chair that was this color..All pictures are from Logan's Facebook page. Building up a home does not end after renovation. In fact, it starts after renovation. Thinking back of the initial conceptualizing and choosing ID and materials, it feels so long ago.We still have not gotten the bed frame and side tables!!
