hi dreamdoll,
Your bed def gives it a more European look. I think i had better show Ally the pix of my bed & ask her how I can modify it to suit my theme

hi dreamdoll,
Quite hard to get them longer.. But let me give it gd thot how it can be done. Maybe like how u do it, only the sides & not the top..
I like the quilt cover alot.. Prob is, heheh, too smooth, it slips off often! Have 'fights' with HB at night when we use this quilt cover

Oh u missed the National Day sale for Robinsons, tt wld be quite a gd opp to secure 2-3 bedsheets/duvet cover sets.. heheh!
Hmm, dun think of it as a hassle.. It's a journey tt u 2 embark as 1! Anyway shift enough & shift every now & then, dun attempt to shift everything at a go, things may go missing & u get frustrated packing & unpacking.. Must enjoy the process at ur first lovenest

hi mehmeh,
Hmm true too...do update me
Ah, the Robinsons National Day sale - think I missed that one! But I went to some Robinsons private sale thing not too long ago, and I couldn't resist the Hallmark sheets...hehe...
Haha, I think the most challenging part would be bringing my tons of clothes, bags, shoes etc over
Probably have to dispose of some!

Hi mehmeh,
Yep Jacquard sounds nice
I got another Sheridan set from the sale...think I've got too many sheets now hehe...can share your site with me?
Agree with Hui, 1.2 - 1.3k is reasonable for a custom-made bed
Hi Hui,
Wedding preps are going slow...now down with the flu so taking a break and planning for trip instead

hi Hui,
heheh.. Teak is quite gd, solid enough & u need not worry abt scratches, unlike laminates. Can design one tt's modern enough, but yet not too resort looking
Oh yah, confirmed with Ally tt i'm meeting her tmrw evening
hi dreamdoll,
No probs.. Hmm, i think ur comment hasn't been loaded yet? I dun see it leh. Email me ur ID?
Guess work + wedding preps makes u tired yah? Try to get as much rest.. U need it
Must say, ur bed at $1k is super worth it! Will consider going Colonial Antiques if i want other furniture, in future
Will update on my session with Ally

hi Hui,
I met Ally oredi.. Seems like quite hard to stick to the initial budget. HB doesn't mind going with her inspite the $2-3k above initial plans, but i find it hard to part with tt.. Must really pray abt it man
Oh yah, asked her abt urs, she said coz u just made some changes abt MBR & a BR, so she must re-think some plans.. hahah, she said she will get back to u, hopefully next week
hi dreamdoll,
Ally is def quite nice & not pushy, just tt i find it hard to part with my hard-earned money. I think i'm a diff customer, coz i want gd stuff & feel the pinch.. Argh, God help me!

wah biang.. i damn lazy to read every thread, i'll juz read those with my nick.. hehe'
meh meh,
$900 is ok cos my door is actually quire big, abt 4 times the size of normal door, so there're 4 panels of glass. Done by my ID. E black light is ard 160 i think.. cant really rem. Its slightly more ex than e normal ones. Innolux was really nice. Jason was v patient and service is gd too, took time to explain and educate us. Usually we will go down v late, and talk till past their closing time but he didn't mind.
The black mosiac ar? its actually to realise my desire to hv mosiac cos i really love but will be too hard to maintain... hehe
Marchbride,
my photoshoot's Sept 18, by Eugene fr Chris Ling. Ya..flamingo's gowns r v nice, mine's OTR, but SHirley din mind adding some details and designs for me. Will show u e pics when its done.. hehe. hopefully ok.
Dreamdoll,
my AD is Dec 10. Hvn't started preparing yet! super relac sia! hehe

hi Hui,
No probs.. Great to hear u can look fwd to ur trip to I-bridge!! Must share how the appt goes yah?
I've sent my scanned floorplan to LegoHse, and Deen returned call with the details to be inc the quote. So now just waiting for his quote.. HB doesn't mind going with Ally, coz he feels she knows what she's doing & is more of an ID over LegoHse staff.. This time, i am the ngiao one! Usually it's him
hi dreamdoll..
hahah, i must say, i dun think i want to have the luxury of time to decide, but yet not want to rush into a decision.. Staying with ILs can be quite tricky & really lack of privacy. Though i dun mind staying in my bedroom, i feel paiseh to always stay inside. At the same time i dun watch programmes tt ILs watch, so no pt hanging outside.. *pouts*
hi tunagirl,
tt's true ah..$900 for 4 panels seems quite a gd deal
Sorry ah, everytime u check the thread we have caused it to go zoomzoomzoom! U've been so patient answering our posts.. *thanks*

Hi gals:
I spoke to Aspect D'Interior and they gave me a fair quote. Quite reasonable since I'll be hacking everything. Just very heart pain cos we are doing all the flooring and ceiling, balcony, kitchen and toilets...
Will see what Ally has in store for us. Tomorrow we're checking out another firm.

hi nwc,
I think the poster bed costs abt $1.2-1.3k.. Can't rem offhand. Custom made at Teakland Gallery, along Upper Seragoon Rd, abt 5 min fr Potong Pasir MRT station
Jean Perry comforter ah? Hahah, i really am getting old.. Got this a year back, so def dun rem! Ooops..
The cornices in the room actually belong to the full-height cabinet. So they aren't cornices per se, but design of the cabinet. This is my ILs place, I am not sure who their contractor is.. *apologies*

hi Hui,
Hahah, finally the day has come
quite a simple process.. Now must really start to narrow down the ID/contractor oredi. Look out for my updates (none today!)
I did pay A&D a visit. A little disappointed with the guy i spoke to, Rm. He sounds drowsy, but he was focused, but i got more & more tired discussing with him.. *tsktsk*

hi Hui,
I haven't.. HB is supposed to do it. I'm exhausted & got to attend a 4-hour workshop later. And today is supposed to be my lightest workload day
Go showflat at A&D? I didn't know tt & RM didn't inform me to.. No quotes yet, but hopefully by end of the week. Dun worry abt the questions, reno partner *wink*

Hi mehmeh: They have a showflat at upper serangoon. Hmm..Ask RM abt it?
Ally asked about you today, I said I knew you because of ur sister and Jess. Hehehe.
Hi Dreamdoll and Mehmeh: Met Ally today. She didn't do much with us leh. Just did a 2D drawing on our layout, nothing fanciful. We had a chat and then she asked to see our unit. My FH was a little disappointed, thought she was still a little vague about her ideas about our house plus there was no specific quote. But the looks of it is that she shld be able to stay within our budget. Just not so sure about the workmanship.
Dreamdoll: What do your friends say about Ally's services?? any advice or pros and cons?

hi Hui,
oic, prob keep tt in mind when RM drops me an email quotation. I did however get a very quick reply fr Aspect today
But need to clarify, coz some item weren't itemised. Did u say he is ur mum's fren??
Same here, Ally showed us only the 2D layout. She was saying tt her ideas may change when she actually views a unit, so tt's gd also, coz she's versatile & can incorporate diff areas of a unit we may not expect
Did she do up a quote for u? Hmm, hang in there & email her to remind her to give you a specific quote
