sleepybeauty 18 Report post Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) headed down to tiong bahru to purchase the lights for the laundry room & store room, another item off the checklist!as recommended by oldskool in his t-blog, these lights are $28 each and uses E27 bulbs.. I bought the phillips 5W energy saving bulb in cool white as i prefer the laundry room & store room to be brighter. oh yes, realised that the lights are actually from LEGRAND.looks simple & nice eh ?

Makanology 29 Report post Posted October 12, 2013 Didn't know that Legrand makes lights! This is a good old classic design - can't go wrong!For the curtains, I will suggest to make them earlier. We did simple ones at Ikea and that already took us 2 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We did simple ones at Ikea and that already took us 2 weeks.i didn't know too but there's a piece of paper & a sticker on the light that says LEGRAND (and it looks like LEGRAND logo in red)thanks for your pointers on the curtains.. i think i shall start sourcing for quotes in these coming weeks.. better to have more time to work with as well...

sleepybeauty 18 Report post Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) just realised that the world globe i got from TYPO sale (at 50% discount) will not be able to fit onto the display shelf at my kitchen area.. silly of me not to notice the measurements of the display shelf and happily grab the globe since it's on sale.thought it would be nice as a display somewhere in the house though... perhaps on the tv console?
