Hello gals,

Wow.. suddenly so fast diaodu! keke.. now full scale into decorating your house and wedding loh! you bought 42"!! What is your tv and sofa distance?

Winnie, your 37" smaller than diaodu liao, we go her house to watch movie together... whahaha....!

Sailormoon, my toilet hor, still doing.. sianz.. the tiles are changed le but now waiting to change the "flowered" tiles coz some of them are damaged during the hacking process... then hor... kitchen also found some cracked tiles!!! pengz man...

You sick ah? mc at home? take care ah, else how to go BKK??? hehe.. that should give you some energy!
Go curtains viewing i dun mind, but this sat my working day again.. =(
 
Good morning.
Glad you are better now Sailormoon.

Personally I think 42" is too exaggerating but we don't have a choice. My TV board is 1.8 X 1.2 metre. Come to think of it, it's really huge.

I stayed at Grand Diamond. hee... Wow.. going BKK again.. must be fun..haha..

Hi Momocharz,

Not fast le lah. my wedding is 75 days away and I just finished my exams and degree..haha..
My TV and sofa distance is very near.. i also don't know what to do..haha..

Hey, this Sat, I think cannot see curtain together.. cos.. we waiting for contractor to come at 11am.. and then meet friends for dim sum at Toapayoh then they come my house...hee..

Unless in the evening about 8pm but think curtain shop close by then... hmm.. so how? Weekday better? This friday?

We will be at our house..from 11am to 2pm if anybody interested, can drop by..but my house not really nice lor..hee..
 
no lah... i at work...facing a huge pile of shit here.. sigh.....
sad.gif


will be going BKK end nov...so will take very good care of myslf so tat i can go BKK & do my shopping for our new house....

the distance btwn the TV & the sofa (for Diaodu & my case) should be 4m. we measured liao.... so 42" TV is jus nice ...

momocharz : our dear missy diaodu alwys the "black horse" one ... alwys last min rush to the finishing point with a winning smile...
kao_smile.gif


well..no prblm lah... i can wake up LATE on sat morning as its my sat OFF *evil grin* hehe.. no lah... .. u take yr time lah.... we can alwys meet after yr knock off time around late 1 mah ... then we all can go & hv lunch ... *idea boh* :p
 
actually i tot so ... but we reali took a long time to decide & struggle btwn a 37" & a 42" one...end up get 42" TV ... my parents were saying nxt time can come my house watch TV ... haha~~

well...in tat case...maybe u confirm if u r dropping by on fri after work, i let SK noe tat warren & yrslf r coming loh....
happy.gif


momocharz... i will contact winnie to see if her hb & herslf r free tis wkend (sat) to see the curtains or not....then we can all go together
happy.gif
 
oh...u stayed at Grand Diamond ... one of the hotels under my search oso ... but end up i didnt chose tat ... i may chose Indra Regent... very near to those shopping markets & Siam Discovery Centre area ... u heard of it?
 
No wor.. never heard of Indra Regent.. If it's near to Siam, then good! :p

So anybody can see curtain this Friday after work?
 
yo morning!

anybody here?

finally my toilet tiles are done! Now wait for them to fix back the basin and toilet bowl so that we can have water!! piang, the whole house so dirty, dusty, lucky haven't handover, kind ID is helping us to clean up first.. hehe.. :p

Yoz... how's everyone?

yup...i was there with SK scrubbing hard & cleaning windows.. 3 hrs we clean, only manage to do the miserable 4 panels of windows at LV Rm...somemore its only 70% clean ... sigh.. cleaning a house is reali no joking matter ah... clean until my fingers skin like tao pok skin like tat... (zhou zhou) hahahaha
kao_laugh.gif

The other 3 colours (blue, gold) are captured directly outside the studio.. that's why we can afford to change..heee..
happy.gif

kao_wink.gif

Hi all!
happy.gif


momocharz: wahhh finally got all your tiles done :> then can deliver your furnitures liao lor

my furnitures there liao, but now all covered in newspapers cos we doing some touch-up at my house + going to install the curtains and alarm etc.

sailormoon: we got our curtains fr this shop in Westmall already. Thanks for helping us to ask though.

anyway, we got our roller blinds @ $6.50 per sq ft. we putting up tis friday, so if any1 keen on getting fr tat shop, can come my house see first
happy.gif
but my curtains for the MBR is more ex

also, we got our fridge! :> very pretty... got it fr the Gain city sales - $799 for a Hitachi one. last time we saw at Best but it's ex, so din get it. so happy.

diaodu: your pics are beautiful and u look gorgeous... and i like the screaming pic also. hehe
 
kekeke... ladies, since all of you have the experience of cleaning the house liao, come help momocharz lah!
kao_sticktongue.gif


My reno drag so long hor, the excitement also died down already. Everytime go up see the same thing until I begin to feel quite bored with the design.. hahaha...

Diaodu, you can carry the victorian style look very well leh! And your proposal story is so funny! Supposed to be romantic but you two made it so cartoon!

Sailormoon, think we three got to decide on some standard gestures! The only universal gesture we know and understand that day is jus WAVING OUR HANDS!! hahaha... saying "hi" also wave, saying "bye" also wave...
biggrin.gif


Winnie, at least now hor, dun need to "borrow" toilet from you.. hehe... I got water loh! but i still like your toilet! *drool drool* Will definitely want to drop by your house again!

Oh yah, when is the next curtain-visiting session?
 
momocharz... i oso leh...i tink i m the last of the last to complete my reno man... haiz...and the best part is we aim to fin by 02 Dec cos most of my furniture and electrical appliances will be delivered by then....oredi pressing panic button liao....plus nw my workload so heavy & busy period for me... sign... nw i reali super stress...
sad.gif


yup! in time to come, we will hv standard gestures..like go marketing will do the "cooking" handsign... idea huh!!
kao_sticktongue.gif


anyway, the next curtain viewing session ah.... mmm..... tis coming sat we r doing cleaning up agn.... if u guys wanna sunday, i hv to ask hb wor ....to make arrangement for the curtain guy to be around in his office... which days u prefer? diaodu ne`?
happy.gif
 
dun worry lah, my reno finish 90% only... next week ID then can "start engine" again... Yours left carpentary only? this week doing right? Still got 3 weeks, can finish by then de. =)

kekeke, mahjong we do the "swimming" handsign, then whole block also know our schedule!

Coming sat you whole day at home doing cleaning ah? But haven't finish you clean got use meh?

We need to go his office to choose fabric issit? How about measurement? He needs to go our place first right? Very ruan...
 
no lah...cos our house loooooks like construction site after the flooring, doing up false ceiling & our timber flooring for our bedrooms...so its reali a working hazard to see so many tings lying around ... everytime we go there, i must tip toe and be careful not to step on the working tools and nails lying around.... so before the carpentary works & painting works...we ask the workers to clear all reno debris and do some cleaning up... so far we only manage to clean the LV Rm window and mopped the LV Rm floor and wash kitchen tiles only.... Bedrooms windows still hv touch yet...

got time meh? at the rate tat we r cleaning ... very slow ah .... cos we only do 70% cleaning to the LV Rm windows only ... intend to do full cleaning when all works r completed...

mmm....it will be more logical if u guys drop by the office to see if there r any fabric tat catches yr eye then drop by yr house to do measurement loh ... i tink so ah ... :p
 
hmm... maybe you dun clean the windows first? coz you not doing carpentry at window area right? Maybe can clean the floor and the tiles first to prepare for the carpentry?

When they do carpentry hor, your windows sure to be dirty again. No point clean now and do double work later.

No? hehe... maybe we lazy.. :p
 
Diaodu, curtains viewing this week mah?

Winnie, what you do and roughly how much ah? want to set a budget.

Gals, what kind and where do you install the curtains ah? Aircon ledge window and kitchen need mah huh? Kitchen i was thinking of getting a cheaper roller blind maybe from IKEA to block out sunlight...
 
hey Winnie ... no worries... sorry for getting back to u so late for the reply cos i didnt check my mail and my home internet got some prblm....
glad u hv settled yr curtains liao
happy.gif


momocharz: Kitchen must put roller blind one meh? i nvr tot of tat leh...dun tink i will install tat yet bah...cos i wan the kitchen to be bright bright one...

as for the study rm and guest rm, we will install those roman blinds ... then Master BedRm & LV Rm probably some nice curtains (Day & Night Curtains bah)

happy.gif
 
Hello....

So many mails.

haha.. active again.

Yes, i agree with Momocharz, Sailormoon, why u clean yr house so early. I think it gets easy the next day during construction. Double effort wor..

Momocharz, wow.. your is 90%liao, good for u. I also blur blur, kitchen needs to put blinds? In fact, the best part I like is our kitchen since it gets the most sunlight which is suitable for drying clothes.
happy.gif


last sat, i made arrangement for a curtain maker to come my house.

Sun, my bf is playing soccer, unless sun night. Sat night we can make it too. :p
Our quotation is S$1,450.
Living room day + night curtains
MBR - Day + night curtains + small roman blinds
two bedroom - Roller blinds
 
no lah, i jus do a first cleaning first...but didnt do it at 100% effort ... those cement stains hv to clean up or else very difficult to clean at a later stage loh ...

let me check with SK tonite see tis wkend if the curtain maker is in his office or not then sms u & momocharz okie....

Diaodu, i tink the type of curtains tat u wanna do for your house same as me ... the MBR small roman blinds must be for the small little window yeah... hehe..
 
the blinds i was thinking for kitchen was to block out the strong sunlight in the late afternoon de, coz i dun want it to shine directly on the cabinets, I scare will spoil them. The rest of the time the blinds will be up, i also like our bright bright kitchen. =)

I tot of doing the same thing as what Diaodu had written, jus that I cannot decide to do both day & night for MBR or jus night curtains will do.

Last time we got a rough quote from a shop in Furniture mall, around $1k. But they having pre-reno sale so the price may not be accurate now. Moreover I dunno how to see the type of cloth use is good or not. :p

Hmm... I think this week difficult to gather all together to meet curtain guy liao, got different timing. I have another contact from my cousin, I get the person to quote first, then we compare k?
 
momocharz : wow ... yr logic nw sounds very appealing to me ... mmm ... *tink tink* make sense leh ... afterall, we wan to protect our kitchen top & cabinets hor... plus our washing machine as its really exposed to the afternoon sun leh ... mm ... let me go tink thru tonite ... mayb like wat u say, go Ikea & buy those cheap blinds jus for this purpose loh ....

hey, yr quote of around $1K so cheap leh.... r u certain tat tis price still stays nw?
happy.gif


okie then .... u gals let me noe agn nxt week if u r still interested in viewing the curtains ...
 
i dun think now still can get that price bah? that time furniture mall gng to renovate right? so they got a sale... moreover we dunno whether the type of cloth quoted is good or not? she said around $15+ range can get quite good one already...
 
woot~~

Diaodu got a nice wedding website!!
but too bad, the pics are not very clear due to the resizing.
Perhaps should resize 1st, then upload. :P
 
Yes. I tried resizing one of my PS photo to the same resolution as the one in your website (267 x 400)

Turns out to be sharper.
happy.gif
 
Hi all gorgeous jie mei! :>

so u all doing cleaning now? anyway, agreed tat shouldn't do cleaning b4 everything finished... like now mi and HB always seems to be cleaning the house (after our major clean up - almost 100%) - everytime drill anything (like for curtain or alarm), then need to clean again. so sian + tiring.

for my curtains, think total is bout 1.2k - roller blinds for living rm, bedrm 1 & 2 + day & night curtains for MBR. not sure of the breakdown, but HB was telling mi tat the curtains r the ex one cos of the materials he chose.

for my study rm and air-con ledge, i juz bought fr Ikea, cos the windows r small.
 
Hi beauties..

Good morning. How's everybody?

I didn't manage to clean my flat over the weekend. We managed to meet one of the curtain suppliers and got a good deal at s$1,100 as compared to other quotes.

Going at such rate, I think maybe we need to compromise with the quality. not sure.. but we are more concerned with $$$. Very broke now!!

Sorry Sailormoon, couldn't share the same supplier as you. We tot it's easier for the curtain supplier to come to our house because it was a difficult decision on the type of materials and colors to choose from so many varieties. The chore was made easier when we were able to compare the material against the windows and the whole design of our house to see if it fits the our overallconcept. Nevertheless, it took us 2.5 hours to make final decision. Phew! Sweat!
happy.gif


Good day to all..
 
Aloha Ladies Ü

Diaodu : Glad tat u hv finally settled on yr curtains ... its okie lah, no worries ... got best deal ahead of u, must faster grab mah!!
so envy u tat yr house is all doll up ...
