After all the basic furnishings, decided to have some fun getting boh liao things just to make the place a little more personalized. We spent a lot of time planning colours, items, DIY-ing furniture from that fabulous IKEA shop in Tampines. But little to speak of in terms of fun stuff.
After surfing the net, looking at www.apartmenttherapy.com for inspiration, reading a whole bunch of home interior mags, decided to get some fun stuff to line our rooms with. Then looked at www.urbanoutfitters.com, which has an apartment section. It features some funky eclectic items that smack of dormitory, hippie chic, with emphasis on alternative rock culture and some hints of handicraft-type work.

This is the completed wardrobe in the MBR. The guys took about 1/2hr to 1hr just to level the tracks so that there wouldn’t be any “ghost” pushing the doors automatically… hee… also, to ensure that the edges close in properly

Since 10am this morning. They’re really a couple of nice guys (Just 2 of them 
). Very professional, and made it a point not to step onto the parquet with their shoes (which is more than I can say for the house owner )

It’s completed. I am sure if I inspect it further, there will be more touch-ups but this is the first cut of what it looks like. Phew! Something is completed in the house

I didn’t go down the next day since the first day of painting and when I did, I was pleasantly surprised that the colours did blend. The lights were also up.

We didn’t hire designers but took a ICI catalogue and decided to be our own designers. Naturally there was some trepidation as to our colour scheme and choice…but it’s turning out to be a real stunner, if I may say so myself.
We didn’t start out with a colour scheme, just chose colours we liked and matched them based on the theme of the room. Along the way, we had to change to accomodate the furniture and whatnot… The person to thank is our contractor, who was really patient with us Guess what, the uncle who is painting our flat, painted my parents’ flat 8 years ago
