Ideas! Steal!

Steven from Ideal house emailed us a revised quotation today. It's rounded up to 49k. Only 2k difference from the first one. However, it looks like we need to do alot of amendment to it cause we are still changing design for our house haha...

We are hoping to get HDB's contractor to help us with more items by topping up with cash. It should save us alot. And thanks to Drey, my new neighbour for sharing the info. Therefore, most likely, we will get HDB's contractor to help us to lay all the tiles, laminate floorings and hopefully to change but not supply a new W.C.

We spent about an hour in IKEA. I took pictures of ideas I liked.

1) Book Shelf. Not this size but similar. Actually I like it white. But he prefers this brown black. Anyway, I convinced myself with this cos IKEA's white tends to turn yellow. =)
2) Wow, the shower area is definitely a cost saving idea. Checked! This for common bathroom! =)

3) I LOVE white kitchen, the cabinets and solid surface top! LOVE LOVE LOVE! He nagged at me non-stop, reminding me how difficult it's going to maintain. -_-

4) I am going to have a work top like this. Slightly lower at waist line. We can also have quick meals or breakfast here. =)
4) The black cabinet on top is easy to reach and sleek. I like!!

At paragon a few days back, saw this panels at XQZT(?) I thought it's something different compared to the string curtains nowadays. It's $198 for 20 pieces. Hmmmm... it seemed a bit pricey... well, can consider still.
