I hate double-working..Well, maybe you can snap before and after double working pictures, and then you can point out the difference to your husband. When my carpenter made mistakes too, my husband also told me that it is so small difference can live with it... and plus that he did not notice the difference from the drawings. But to me it was a big difference, as I wanted a border around my bookshelves and the carpenter did not do it, so my shelves land up looking like something from my mother's era... And my husband did not notice, despite telling me all the way he understood what I wanted... And he say it in front of the carpenter some more, so with a hubby like that, how to change your carpentry works to the one in drawing, cause even 50% of the customer agree there is no difference. Makes me look like the bad guy in front of strangers. Wah... that is when we women get upset, cause we specify to them already what we want, some more have drawing to prove it, and then our own husband says no much difference when it means a whole world to us.. Hope your double work turns out well, then you will know it is worth changing it... rather than living with it and hating it for 10 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LinDa 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2007 (edited) thanks to all for the consolation and sharing yr renovation boo-boos too! correct sequence of the wardrobe is written in yellow (coz i want my sections to be near the toilet now end up my hubby's section of wardrobe is nearest to the wardrobe, he heng lor that my plan backfired). the blue bars have been arranged to be installed. but i had added in the second yellow bar (too many clothes) and hence, ID have to remove the drawers rightfully coz no space. anyways, decided to leave the sequence and not change it as i think its going to be very tricky to move it. don't want them damaging my wardrobe in the process which is worse. but i die die told my id i want that second hanging bar so i oso don't know if he is going to remove the drawers or what anot.my son's room wardrobe. i find it too big for him now lor coz his clothes are all so small and not many so wun occupy so much space. told my hubby just now 'ey, why not u use one of his wardrobe then i can have the mbr wardrobe ALL to myself'. haha.. he say i selfish. correct ma, more convenient for me right not, if not i have clothes here (mbr) and i have clothes there (son's rm), ma fan ma.

LinDa 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2007 (edited) One of my most satisfied idea I gave to my ID is this feature wall + room divider + TV console. Actually I did not think of it myself la, another ID suggested this when I was sourcing for IDs and I really liked it. My most most most proud part of this whole carpentry is having the front part to be straight so that it looks clean and simple whereas having the protuding part of the TV console behind the feature wall instead turning it into a ledge for me to put some decor/photo frames behind to spice up my study room.My ID added in the shelves on the sides of the console so that its more functional.Still unfinished, its supposed to be in black glass on the front and back with flowery laminated doors for the shelves doors to match my MBR wallpaper.Looking forward to everything being completed next week (I hope). Sofa delivering on 25 May so ID working towards that date. He has arranged for partial cleaning on Friday so when I went yesterday to take a look, the place is pretty cleaned up. Nice! And ExCiTeD..
