My Dark, Industrial-Style Apartment

[El LoCo 3]

Really gorgeous home...may I know where is the place u get yr centrepiece from?

oh yes.. the rope is very crucial.. it makes / breaks the whole look... the shop supposed to give me the rope (out of goodwill) but i guess they forgot to send it together when they did the delivery.. just called them up to check if i could still have the rope hehehe

i don't think i will remove the chain as it acts as a support, think will find a way to tie the rope around the chain.. the rope should just be for decor only...will post up pics of the finished product!

I think you can get the rope from any hardware store.

Khng > thanks for info but I managed to contact the shop to give me some rope thus save me the hassle of searching the rope.

Hi, which forwarder did you use for your TaoBao purchases? Did you have to make any payment before getting the final quotation?

hi, im using peeka... you have to make about 80% deposit on ur purchases and you will only know the shipping charges (from china to spore) when all the items arrived in their china warehouse.
