sumobear 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2007 Some new fabric canvases for my dining area. Got the canvas frames as As-Is items from IKEA, it costed me less than $20 for 3 small square and 1 long rectangular frames. As for the fabrics, I bought the floral and circle fabrics from Vietnam and the vintage print from Spotlight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sumobear 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 Erm actually I never buy those items directly from the As-Is section...I spotted this set of frames with a damaged print on the shelves. I asked the IKEA lady if I can buy it at a cheaper price and she say can be sold as an As-Is item after her superior's inspection and approval. Her superior was reluctant to sell the set of prints to me at first because he questioned me why I want a damaged print for. I kept quiet but in my mind, I was like saying who wants the prints, it is the frames that I am eyeing for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

applefreak 1 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 so far i only bought a big cushion from the as-is sectionreason for it being there is simply because the plastic cover was removed didn't see any furniture that yells 'grab me!' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sumobear 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2007 Some wallpaper design that I have attempted, actually recycled and modified from a project at work Dunno what to do with them yet...maybe for a feature wall or canvas in the future? The colours make me feel so child-like, I am looking forward to design a kid's room someday. Probably the opportunity will knock on my door when I have my own kids...by then I can behave like a kid again to do something kiddish and fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sumobear 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2007 Our room for the wedding day...dramatically and sexily pink! 2 days of wedding are over, time just passed too fast...we miss the both days, kept watching our video over and over again, laughing at ourselves! Its sweet...Its our day! Nice weather for outdoor shoot, many relatives strike lottery from the numbers we picked and we had a small winning of 4D ibet for our wedding car but not enough $$$ to cover the $$$ we bet. Everyone is happy... Sweet memories... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
