hc28 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2015 Quick photos of my kitchen... Lots of rectifying work to do IMO, but need to check again with contractor present tomorrow. Handles are not spraypainted yet... I'm gonna unscrew all of them tomorrow to spray paint them glossy gold. BY THE WAYNeed to thank y'all (especially AhYong and NextStep) for psychoing me into getting BLUM. I upgraded the four big drawers (the small ones are all normal ones) to Blum and it was worth every penny. Feels AMAZING when you open and close it lol. whahaha. blum is super shiok right.actually, why dont you ask your contractor to unscrew the handles for you first so that you can spray. when they come back to touch up or complete the carpentry, the handles will be ready to be installed by them. hehe. i just see it as making full use of the contractors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really love the laminate you go for, it make the kitchen look so class and clean look, with the gold handle it will be super nice I am sure. Kara you have very good tastebtw every time u post your photo, I always notice the LV bag you got, that is a very nice colour too. Btw you are welcome on the BLUM hehehe..... but it super cool right? Trust me it will be a very good investment.I need to go make the payment at BLUM soon ( I really drag and drag) because I want to pay them using my care to earn more miles rather then get my ID go make the payment for me. hahaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am in LV craze this year... So I have 2 that I interchange. Haha. Thanks bro!Glad you said that! I was worried it'd end up too boring cus it's plain white laminates. But glossy easy to clean la, so one good point!Haha, I just got my contractor to buy 4 x S3 ones for me... I trust his recommendation cus I actually just wanted to go for S1 which is cheapest, but he recommend for big one better to go for S3. But he don't let me buy white... He say not practical. And HANSGROHE LEH just hoot only! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ahyong81 3 Report post Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) Really like the kitchen clean and sleek look. Looks so atas. Initially i also want a mostly white theme, but my cousin ask me to go something bold ( red / black / white )Since i want a modern theme, these 3 colour fits the bill.With the gold handle, the end result will sure be amazing.
