Reno@Toa Payoh (5 Room HDB flat) - FINAL PHOTOS!!!!

Hello there!!!

I've been meaning to post the final photos of our project at Toa Payoh for the longest time but due to the delivery of baby james, we just couldn't arrange a photoshoot after the reno was done. GOSH! come to think about it, the reno has been finished for a solid 2 months now.

So here are the overly dued photos for everyone to see!!! And I must say Cath Kidston Mum has done a pretty good job in keeping her home neat and tidy yet still managed to display her personalised memorabilia from their travels and other knick knacks from their previous shanghai home.

There are loads of pretty pictures which we took on her home but we decided to show a snippets of the more common areas.

here we go!

The main entrance where we kept the original door as it is still in quite good condition. We gave it a good sand down and painted it white. To give a contrast to the space, pattern tiles were used just for the entrance foyer and some people like to call these tiles "peranankan tiles". Others call it the Vietnamese tiles too. 

Cath kidston mum found this really cute wall light online which goes quite well with the overall theme colour.

 Overview of the main entrance - Beautiful entrance door, patterned tile with a black border around it. To the left is the really cute wall light, to the left is the shoe cabinet and a sitting bench with flushed downlights. 

Cath Kidston mum bought a funky coloured wall clock here to add more colours to our usually all white interiors. Hubs says that he loved the clock very much because it's so unique!

Again, we really need to give loads of credit to Cath Kidston mum for her choice of the red lampshades and bar counter chairs. They really do match the pattern tiles and bring an overall "retro" look to the baking area.

 Here's a decal which we did for her! Hope she likes it as much as we do.

We thought it was appropriate for Cath Kidston mum who loves to bake!

here's a close up on the decal.

The spick and span kitchen!

Above: The tv console with integrated storage and display cabinet. The tv console was designed to look like it's floating and the curves to the edges brings out a very vintage character to it.

here's another view of the tv console and storage cabinet

The master bedroom has a woody and white look. We kept almost everything consistent from the white doors and wooden door frames down to wood looking flooring.

Above: For the master bedroom, I really love the drop down pendant lamps which Cath Kidston mum had bought from Taobao because of the lovely rose hue, very similar to a tinted bronzy colour. It's so sweet and warm like the evening sun. Actually it reminds me of her as she's always smiling and so motherly!

Above: Both bathrooms are finished in the same manner so here are the photos of the master bathroom only. For the walls, we chose a stoney looking tile with fine horizontal grains.

Here's a look at the shower area with the lovely stoney wall tile.

ritey, I hope everyone enjoyed the photos and do leave your comments!

Happy weekend!
