summersann 6 Report post Posted March 10, 2013 Day 5Ok, the one that broke me was this... RoofRoofSo there goes my plans for sky roof! We felt that the result of building a sky roof here will not be worth it, especially when the view from here is the ugly walls. Oh well, now we will be considering the type of tiles to use for the roof awnings.The walls can be patched with new paint right? That's what we did with ours because it was in bad shape as well (peeling paint and all). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And the facing for the balcony is the main road, which is a little bit more dusty, noisy and dirty. So, maybe the money for the sky roof is better spent elsewhere bah.

kooky 2 Report post Posted March 10, 2013 I like the 3D drawings of your bathrooms! They look so much interesting than mine.It seems like the progress of your renovation is far quicker than mine. And looking forward to see more pictures :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rockyAtRenotalk 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2013 May I know where you got the emperor coins? And is it due to fengshui ? Am curious on its uses Yes, they are for Fengshui purposes. Emperor coins were introduced by my Fengshui master (FS Master), and can be bought at The Bencoolen. There's no information about which shops to buy from on the Internet. What I did was go to The Bencoolen (opposite Burlington Square, diagonal to Sim Lim Square), and went for any one that sells these coins. There are so many there! The shop I went to was Sin Poh Court Trading (#01-56A), Tel: 6238-8981. The lady was very nice and soft spoken. Price is about 35 cents each. About these coins, they are replicas (read: fake) of the ancient coins. From my understanding, they are supposed to bring luck, fortune, wealth, health, and ward off all evil and bad things from the house. Hahaha... this one I say one, not FS master say one. In any case, FS master say what, I do what. I just follow instructions. Hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I have to give credit to them. But then again, the end result is another thing altogether. Hopefully it turns out well. <FINGERS CROSSED> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rockyAtRenotalk 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2013 Choosing tiles is really a pain... nice ones, no stock. Good ones, too expensive. Cheap ones, crack easy. Unique ones, discon. Grrrr!!!I really liked this one for my 25 m2 entrance area. I remember one old friend told me 脚踏石地 as the entrance, which I think is really great. But, discon liao. So no stock. Geo Andes MixThis one also nice, but No Stock or extremely low stock. Calzada NegroBoh pian liao... cannot take the princess, take the cousin also can.
