thanks! am glad that our marble floor's pattern is quite nice too and we din need to spend too much money on the floors..a repolish was all it needed to bring it back to its shining glory!  because of this marble floor, we cldnt go for the scandi look, but in hindsight, i like my house theme better!

My biggest achievement in this reno journey is getting custom made curtains from taobao! My chinese is cannot make it one but have to say becos of taobao,my chinese is from f9 upgrade to at least c6! My chinese teacher wld have been so proud! I liased with the.sellers on aliwang asking them abt the price for the length and height that i wanted.Once confirmed price,i engaged ezbuy buy for me services and they help me to order and ship it over.cldnt use prime as the sellers i chose werent on prime.

I wanted binds but i worry about my kids playing with the binds string and strangulation.. Mothers always worry.. 

Also i realised that curtains wld suit my house better,softening the look and creating a cozier environment.

Ordering curtains fr taobao was really tempting as they had lots of options and were really really much cheaper! I really mean it when i say much cheaper! 

All in all, i had day and night curtains in living and dining room and curtains in all 3 rooms.total cost? Sgd622!! My mum who had offered to make the curtains for me was shocked at the cost as the sgd622 was inclusive of cloth and workmanship.she said that if we had bought the cloth here,it wld have been ard that price liao! 

Here s presenting my dining and living room curtains!

Day and night curtains 

Day curtains 

Softens the house's look

Night blackout curtain-have abit of shiny feel to it.

Really pleased with the quality and price of the curtains..Will reveal the other curtains soon!

Sis, marble floor imho is floor finish of all flooring, I'm house hunting now and u know it's not easy to get marble floor,... rest assured it's worth the sacrifice for Scandi theme..  at least for me, I'll sacrifice marble flooring for any theme .. it's really class act n ex... for 100 sqm area, easily 30k up .... u got jackpot trust me... nice curtains too, the quality ok ?

Thanks thanks! Marble floor also got some cons that we din know til now.. Slippery when wet and porous! So no drinking of wine in my place..lol..

Curtains cloth are good quality so sgd622 is very worth it! Happy with the material

Room curtains

Kids room.. Had alot of compliments for this.my girls love their curtain! 

Both study and master bedroom curtain is the same but different colour.apparently this curtain is a korean style and alot of sellers have it. I purposely chose a two tone curtain as i had only one curtain rod in e rooms and i wanted a two curtain look.

Masterbedroom curtain in beige

Study room in grey

Curtain review:cheap and good!

buying curtains on taobao is really a great feat..... especially won't know the quality and whether it will come in correct measurement. but its great that you manage to do it and looks so wonderful!!!
