432B | Hanging Fabric

For those of you who have been following my blog for some time, would know that I will change the hanging fabric above my headboard annually. So this year, I've gotten hubs to peg a retro piece of cloth onto my wall!

The coming year, I've planned for an earthy tone to my master bedroom. Yellow and orange flowers, earth toned bedsheets and a beige neutral floor mat! 

Here's wishing everyone a Happy New Year!!!

Hello Everyone!

Just wanted to share some goodness this Good Friday. We went to Ikea just to have a lookaround and found something that is so pretty that we wanted to share with everyone.

So I have this Ivar shelving units for the longest time, since my first home at Stirling and we brought it over here to store our children's toys. Today at Ikea, I found some really nice looking Ivar ratten swing doors!!! And it certainly spruce up our Ivar shelf greatly.

Above: Before installing the Ivar rattan swing doors. The good thing was we could see all the toys and super easy to take the toys out to play, but the bad thing is that it can look messy.

above: ta-duh! Our play room never looked neater!

hello everyone!

so sorry that it takes me so long to update our reno projects and their updates. It's really quite tough to do frequent updates when I have a regular day job and 3 kids in a tow. 

anyway, cut to the chase, here's one of our completed condominium projects last year 2021. I know, I'm so freaking late!

Progress photos here : Aberdeen 

and so sorry, I don't have final photos but the progress photos do capture some of our design details like our selection of kitchen backsplash, cabinetry details, laminate selection and tiles. So if you are looking at a dark and sombre yet classic look to your interiors, you can check out this one!

Reno@B5 Maisonette | White or Black frames?

 

Was wondering whether a white or black frame might suit the space. The frame is currently white and I quickly did some photo edits to make it black. Please pardon on the sloppy edit!

What do you folks think? Would love to hear you guys' thoughts on colours.

xoxo

Another corner of our place - dressed it up with my cute lionhead cushion and golden coin print cushion cover from Ikea. Have you started decorating your place for the Lunar New Year?

I like to take it slow, spread out over the weekends, especially now that I'm physically back to the office.

the beauty of maisonettes is the double volume spaces such as these!

Home@432B | one last look at my christmas tree before they take it away

 

In case you are wondering where I bought my LIVE christmas tree, it is purchased from Far East Flora (FEF) And no, it is not a a sponsored tree although I wished it was, since it is my first christmas live tree ever!

Just wanted to share with everyone that there is a limited period to call up for them to dispose the tree and so, please keep track! hahaha...i kept reminding hubs to remember to call the florist to ask them to come and dispose the tree, but he kept wanting to keep it longer. We missed the period to be honest but fortunately FEF is quite nice, they said since we are only late by a few days, they will still dispose it for us.

ahhh...I will miss my first christmas tree!! now looking at it, it has browned quite a lot ever since it came home.

Home@432B | Entrance Mat

 

Today I went to ikea and bought home a new ikea entrance floor mat - rainbow!

Brompton

 

Besides doing ID as a day to day job, hubs like to cycle! He cycles every Tuesday. And when there is a good offer online, he buys an old brompton, refurbish it, clean it over weekends and resell them. Sometimes he couldn't bear to sell them!!! hahaha....
