[lipstar]

llina: Yay for you! Now you can concentrate on other things. When are you going to buy wine?

Hazel: When are you going to buy wine? I know you mentioned before. Now is after midnight oredi, lazy to go archive.

MBR and BR3's ceiling lights are $110 each. BR2 which is walk-in wardrobe's ceiling light is $90. This weekend, I take picture of the lights and post here.

 

[lipstar]

HOME & DECOR: By the way, do you girls know of places to get nice bar stools, preferably less than $100. Went IKEA, BIG, V-hive, White Collection oredi. Not very nice. And not cheap either.

 

[lipstar]

Saw from the papers a similar-looking but uglier bar stool going for $69 at BIG.

It turned out uglier and more coarse.

I go sleep oredi. Nite girls!

 

[kaye]

Lipstar,
Wine ah..needs to make appt...Melisa would only be back on 18 or 27 Nov...forgotten which date.
So, will call her for an appt..maybe in Dec.

As for your stool
U can go Silver River, Home2Be, The Furniture Mall, The Furniture Warehouse, Harvey Norman, The Merchant Home (more on teak wood furniture), Luxur, Lorenzo, XQPT(too ex).
See Sat's newspaper, alot of advertisement...but all so ulu places..
I only been to 2 not so "ulu" places...cant deny the price is gd. Few hundred dollars cheaper for the same material & design displayed in other pl. Cos they r the manufacturer or import/export it....forgotten...
but that time, I only in the beginning of reno, So, cant buy

Hi Wendy,

Hokkaido in Jan should be very cold cos it's still winter season. Going to Japan, it's best to go in mid Apr to May cos it'll be spring and you can see cherry blossom!! Very pretty... weather is very good too. don't have to bring thick thick clothing and when u take pix, it'll be nice nice too... not all balloon up!!! heehee...

Wow, seems like almost everyone of us has a dog. Me too have a long-coat chihuahua named Leo (a boy gotten his name cos he is under Leo star sign!) sleeps wif me every nite whenever I'm ard and extremely attached to me. Unfortunately, I can't bring him along wif me cos my family doesn't allow me too... *sob sob**

wif rdgs to our mtg on 25th, anyway is fine for me. no preferences.

 

[jojopepper]

thanks chomecc! got ur email.

hello angel, can make good use of the balcony and turn it into a small garden! hehe

[deremi]

[xynn]

hi gals, have you all settle on AD photographer and videographer? any feedback on those which you all have viewed?

 

[september]

me also nt bringing my baobei, Cola over to my new hse, coz actually she is a rather sick/weak dog and is on life time medication so required also of care...thus my parent have request me to leave her wif them so they can help me take care since they predicted tat both me and my hubby wont be in most of the time during the day....

actually, if she is nt so weak, i will definitely bring her wif me coz me oredi tell my hubby to leave his baobei, Happy at hm to keep his mum company lor since both his brother will be working in the day and the mum will be hm alone mah...keke...

 

[marnie]

A quickie cos' too many stuff to clear in the office and I'll be on leave tomorrow to go on full-time wedding prep mode.

Lipstar, I saw a couple of great looking stools at Barang Barang. There's also a shop along Purvis Street which sells furniture and products which are very bar-looking.

Ilina, great to see you pop by once in a while! Oooh....Peony Jade.....Why is it so familiar?? Hmm....Is M&amp;M also having her wedding there? Which Peony Jade are you having? Is this the one at Clarke Quay?

Aye....wedding bands are an elusive thing for Meraj and I. Searched and searched but nothing fancies him. He wants the rounded comfort fit matte platinum. I want my platinum milgrained on the edges. I tell you....fussy and picky lot we are.

Girls, last night went shopping or rather with the intention of going shopping. Saw a beautiful pair of champagne gold strappy sling backs at URS and it looks sooo good on me. But they don't have it in my size! Urrghhh!

 

[preci0usm0ments]

<font color="aa00aa">wah...how come everyone so active at nite har? hehehe

proffy,chomecc yup yup my place done last yr with simple, basic reno.. but we thinking of giving it a new look when we officially move in hahahaha

angie, ur place BIG leh.. urs is exe har?

i agree tat the hse are getting smaller and smaller hor.. my cousin got a resale 4 rm at Hougang.. piangz.. the floor area like the current 5rm </font>

 

[camy]

Hi rain 19780,
Which part of chinatown? Any address or contact number?

 

[kaye]

marnie,
maybe U would be like me...can find a better price one in the same brand shop but diff branch...
*sigh..I must try to find Harvey Norman email to complain the staffs there..else pay such a high rent to give convenience to the customers but customers are being chased away by their staffs

My wedding bands very simple one....&amp; buy very fast. went to those Lee Hwa, Soo Kee to c the price...but bought it at the traditional shop in Chinatown.
cos almost same design but pricing is almost half.

 

[lilic]

<font color="0077aa">angeldust, dun worry lar.. i sure you can pass one lar.. hahha, i dun hang out with losers.. *keke.. kidding lar.. tho your compo topic is really crapped, sure you can smoke well lar.. =p

i not out of mind lar, the pearls very chio leh.. thinking if i can get them for SDJ instead of the ah-long chains mah..

chomecc, for me hor, my parents and IL ask us to make things simple.. fly the immediate family overseas and conduct the wedding there.. hahahha... but bf and i really want a church wedding with all our frens.. then instead of having buffet at both parent's place and having tea reception after church, we combine all.. so came lunch reception after church.. but then we want to keep church and lunch wedding for special people only.. so began to toy with idea for a dinner for pp close but not that close for us.. when my bf see fullerton, no turning back liao.. confirm he wants dinner there lor.. hahahhaha

juan, dun nag too much leh.. makes you feel older and give your hubby a break lar.. hahah, my bf says he tahan his mum's nagging for lpast 28 years and pleads that i dun make him undergo the same thing for next 50 years.. hahahha..

apple, remember 3 women make a market?? too easy for us to chat into the night leh</font>

 

[lilic]

chomecc hehe.. no lah.. i'm juz an ok drinker.. keke.. didnt try wine bos as yet.. my hubby lazy liao.. dun wana do anythin for these few mths.. wana take a break fr wedding planning keke

 

[doggy_gal]

Diana,
so sorry to hear abt your dog. poor fellow. I'm sure your parents must love her a lot to want her to be with them too

To all owners with dogs,
I'm trying to design my house to be as dog-proof as possible. Anyone with suggestions or advice?

I'm wondering if parquet floor will be a killer. but laminate will have click click sound when they're walking? Both are slippery for dogs i suppose.

Both my hubby and I love wood. So it's tough deciding on the style of deco we want in the house and yet won't be ruinned by them easily.

 

[apple68]

<font color="ff0000">ya.. rite..proffy.. thats why a house cannot have too many women... very noisy.. keke</font>

 

[apple68]

<font color="ff0000">hey gals.. but small area flats have their own benefit.. like smaller area.. less $$$ to renov.. all furniture.. downsize.. everything small small.. then uwont be tempted to keep buying things for house.. cos no space.. </font>

<font color="ff0000">but next time with kids .. still have to give them their own room.. so eventually still have to upgrade to bigger areas.. n when old n retired.. downgraded again.. cos children all grown up moved away..</font>

<font color="ff0000">.. wow.. i guess that's life... keke</font>

 

[racherlle]

hi magical!

can show me ur gown pics too?
hehe thanks

[man_tou_bear]

Hi gals!

Wah the doggy so cute!! i like them too but prefer bigger dogs... wait till my flat is ready then i might just get one... I have piggies though.. let's see if i can upload a pix of them.
Oops cannot upload.. too big liao..

Agnes, ermm i was quoted 2.2K for parquet for 3 rms.. quite ok lah.. but the thing is will the floor kena scratch by doggy's nails??

U gals enjoy ur outing and rem to post photos! heehee...

 

[tazy]

<font color="119911">wow apple...you think really far leh..keke...but i think small flat you don't hv to spend so much time cleaning up as compared to big flat. so tt's a plus pt!! </font>

Hey Rachel &amp; lovestory,

Its the 2nd time that we postpone liao. We have taken our Indoor shoot. Now left with Outdoor only. Yesterday, it is a bright day but it is very cloudy. Cannot even see the blue sky and I wanted to shoot sunset as well.

And the sunset maybe just behing the clouds lor. So we decide to change.

Yup. We are charged $80 for the MUA lor.

 

[ashlady]

Hi precious_moments,

[suishi]

Newbbi79,

We decide to order walnut cakes from the cakemaker.

Address is under the thread;- Wedding preparation 2006

 

[makino]

Hi limko,

Like what magical said, you can check with hotels. They have smaller ballrooms for your needs. Can check out Sheraton and Hyatt too..

Magical, same dilemma. I'll see how my silver shoes go with the gowns first. If can't accept, then I'll look around loh.. But actually I think silver bling bling shoes should be able to go with most WG.
