Hi Luna, I had pm you.

Hi smartgoldmthe pm box is full. Sorry, I just cleared it. I've replied u on the quote. Let me know if u have received it.msorry for the delay.

Wahh love your chair, totally gonna try this out also! Lol. Shall go hunting for some cheap rattan furniture soon (:

Thanks Mandj thank u so much for the assurance, i thought I was the only one liking the chair. Hubby is neutral about it, I hope the chair can give the room a gentle pop of color as the mastered room color scheme is just white and teak wood color.

Snoop around those neighbour furniture shop and trift shops such as cash converters or salvation army, I think they may have pretty interesting stuff.

That arm chair is pretty! If your hubby is not open to the idea of floor lamp, perhaps can add in at a later stage?

Btw, how is the general workmanship of JW? Is he more of ID or contractor in terms of the service he provides and his fees?

Jiawei's quote for me is lower than places such as North***t interior etc... He did not charge me designer fee and he carried out the renovation like contractor. He will set the right backdrop for me to create the space that I wanted. As he is an interior designer, he gives professional advice on many details, even the slightly things such as the color of my rattan chair, he'll give his input. No complains.

Thumbs up to his dedication. He is also very meticulous on many fine details. Hubby and I is glad to find him.

Another example of the same backdrop but different furnishing...

Style 1

Style 2

Is the same backdrop, brick wall, white space... But jus different furniture. Renovating was an exciting journey... But decorating is something I'm not very pro at... Argh...

What is the colour code for your house's paint? From your photos, it does not look like pure white colour.

Ok, will send u the details when I get back to office on monday (details are not with me at the moment)

As for the paint.... Hubby likes the warm white... It's actually "sail white" from Nippon paint series. Chosen by hubby and daddy and approved by jiawei. It was a tough call becos I wanted pure stark white like in picture of style 1 above...hubby say stark white like office, daddy say stark white like hospital...jiawei said that this color can add warmth to the space and it will not look like martex paint shade. he did warn me that choosing pure stark white will mean that when ppl walk into the house, they will think that it's not painted as the stark white looks like Martex. But he loves a pure white too, well 2 is to 1... Hubby and dad won...

The paint color was a struggle for me. I really wanted a pure pure cold white... This color is a warmer richer white, really look like the color of a white sail...

Do u all think it's nice? Or pure stark white will b better option?

Regarding the paint, I think it's more of a personal preference. Personally I do like your sail white Colour.

Btw, can pm me your Reno cost while I wait for your quotation?

Hi adidaem, congratulations to your 500000 hits! Your blog is very informative and I enjoy reading a lot. I will take a look at the idea activity hall for stuff. Some of the decorative stuff are nice and wallet friendly

I tried putting some scandi stuff into the study room, adding the bunting flags... Hope it's not overdone.

I love bunting flags! Mind sharing where you got yours from?

Love your ideas so far! Post more pictures

The tv console, no tv feature wall, the tv will b wall mounted

Please give your honest opinion, I dunno if it's over or under accessorise. Should I cut down, add more accessories? Please give me your comments

Your TV console looks on the "long" side but fits in nicely with wall

Part of the fun comes from decorating or dressing up the house though most of the time it will be misses on my part

Your place is looking good and huge too

Love your renovation process Luna! Great job and keep the pictures coming! Coincidentally, my hubby and my concept is very similar to yours! And love the brick wall!

Hi, you can get them from etsy, they have cloth versions. Or you can make them yourselves, can get those craft papers from paper market.

Hi, thanks for dropping by. I do feel very stressed over the deco...well i'm the kan cheong spider kind, cannot get my focus right and i "tortured" many ppl during this process with my constant nags, especially my poor hubby who gotta put up with my indecisive mind and fussiness... of course Jiawei, who has to keep on replying to my questions on how to decorate...gosh i do feel bad cos our house is a small project and he has to take all these questions from me all the time.

I'll be posting up more pics of the kitchen soon as Jiawei has helped to utilise the existing space of the kitchen to make more cabinets to make the kitchen more functional.
