15th Week of Reno - 14-20 July 2008

WOW WOW WOW!!! Our house is so nice now! Sat was a busy day but very fruitful. Furniture and curtains were delivered. Only left the fridge and master bedroom curtain. The carpentry workers were also around to touch up with paint and silicon. The floor was washed again. The house now looks more complete and cosy. LOVE IT!!! :D


Sofa, dining set, bed/mattress and curtains came at around the same time. It was so messy and we felt that we were obstructing their way and didn't know where to stand. Haha...The tv was delivered later and mounted. The tv console feature wall looks so different and nicer with the tv. Tv installation had some hiccups though - our Sharp LCD tv for the MBR was meant to be wall-mount but Audio House sales-person didn't arrange for that. They'll come on Sun to fix it. Also, for our Pioneer home theatre system, the tv console lacked holes for the speakers and subwoofer wires to pass through. Luckily the carpentry workers were around and Miko also came down and join us to fix the problem.


Our Slumberland Royal Princess - comes with 2 pillows, 1 bolster and a mattress protector. Cost us $2400. Since our headboard cushion is not done yet, our divan and mattress are not installed. Melvin will make another trip to install the bed and also touch up our sofa and dining table. His service is excellent!


Sofa - The legs are higher than expected. But it's ok as it allows space for us to mop and sweep the floor underneath. The material feels 'steady' and we're very satisfied with the quality. Comfortable to seat too. We have another set of grey covers. Bought this for $1400.


Dining table - The chairs are fantastic! Love the design and finish. However, the table is supposed to be black and opaque but what we got is transparent. Melvin will come another day to spray paint.


Living room curtain matches with our sofa and feature walls. The light grey study room curtain is thick enough to block out light for us to watch movie on our beloved plasma tv. :)


Roman blinds - Our study and guest rooms really look so cosy.


Roller blind - Neat and straight-forward. It adds privacy to our living room as it covers the window along the common corridoor. One of the shoe cabinet doors still needs to be re-done after the 1st round of re-do *sounds complicated*. ;)


Tv console feature wall - We'll enjoy watching tv even more, or at least I do. Hehe...
