kitty 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2007 Kinda ex, that time my ID charged me $80 to construct kerb but we took it out cos there's not need for it..try to bargain....anyway construction of kerb nia shouldn't cost too much too..mine also not deep so ID say for sure if we were to bath very long then water will flow out...somemore it's $120 per bathroom so 2 bathroom will be $240 OMG....did u do a shower screen for your common bathroom?? think if no shower screen then need to do kerb??

Can't remember where i seen it...very appropriate Thanks! Ya we're very excited to move in...it's been one year plus already....waited abit too long...Lifestyle, yup, it's 3D but it's actually oil painting on canvas...we got the measurement customised...but can see that we hung it a bit too high already....haha...bo bian...cannot undo so leave it as it is...

sumobear 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) Nice home you have...very drama! I saw a similar Rose canvas at IKEA recently, it is probably a new item and therefore it is selling like hotcakes...the price is like $99 for a big print.If your print has a string or steel wire at the back, you can probably loosen it to make the print drop lower when you hang it.I went to shop for artificial plants at concourse over the weekend. I went to Steve Florist and got quite alot of good stuffs too...the best deal is the vases, buy 2 get 1 free. Alot more cheaper and more varieties compared to IKEA. Steve's flowers are the best for budget price...very realistic. Wanna get twigs too but they charge me too ex...$1+ per twig and how much I need to fill up a vase if they are all skinny twigs? So most probably I am buying a packet of fresh twigs from a fresh flowers distributor which is cheaper and somemore I can bend them and let them dry up to form the shape I want. My wife picked some artificial flowers and I am using them to do up another corner of our home...will post pic when it is ready.

CheersYa I saw Ikea's one but they cannot customise the measurements so in the end we went to source for other ones and found this....We can't loosen the nail because it's hammered onto the wall that's y bo bian...cannot shift lower otherwise can see abit lobang there....haiz...Ya concourse is a really good place for vases and flowers....very reasonable pricing too! Wah buy 2 vases get 1 free?? It's those small ones?? Might go there to take a look again...hehe....ya i think those packets of twigs are more worth it....daco marketing selling at 6.90 for a packet...not sure how many is inside though....really regretted getting our big twigs from lifestorey...costs us 50+ for 6... Agree that vases at Ikea not exactly cheap too and their variety is limited...hey sumobear, waiting for your pics!! Edited October 10, 2007 by Air Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
