Reno@31 Ipoh | Photoshoot

above: me using homeowner existing items to decorate the place. Because your items are the ones which you have valued and kept for,  and that's reason enough for me to take memories of it for you to keep.

Hello!

are you curious about our home photoshoot and how it is all done?
Some interior firms will hire a professional photographer to take the photos while here at butterpaperstudio, we do it all by ourselves! Why? Because we enjoy the process and we are the ones that did the design and have more feelings towards the spaces which we have created.

also during the photoshoot process, we also take our time to have a little chat with our home owners to find out whether have they settled in well, how are the lived-in conditions, whether do they need touching up etc etc.

And most importantly, many home owners also have a keen eye for their home furnishes and items, this is also a great chance for us to find out what other new items there are in the market. Be it furniture sources, lighting sources, toilet fittings too! So from them, we get to share these valuable sources with our other home owners and also to benefit small start ups so that they too get a chance to survive in this industry.

so do share with us, if you think there are particular trades which are newly start up and have given you valuable services. We think they should all have a shout out like us.

Reno@192B - Caught in Action

Hello!
it's almost 2 months since our last photoshoot and I'm super happy that we can showcase our recently completed resale flat in Bishan - one of the many coveted neighbourhoods in town. I'm sure many parents will understand why housing prices in Bishan are so expensive because there are so many good schools around this area.

I'm in the midst of editting the home photoshoot photos now, hopefully will be able to post some updates by this weekend!

Happy Sunday everyone!

Reno@Clementi III - Home Photoshoot

Hello!

it's been awhile since I last posted my last entry. We have just finished a home photoshoot this afternoon. I'm still editting the photos, resizing them before I post them onto my blog later...I'm targeting before dinner today?

it's pouring outside while I'm typing this but we were very fortunate that it was a really good weather with lots of wind and sunlight this afternoon during our photoshoot.

well i'm hoping to finish all the posts up by today cos after this I need to be a "mummy" again cos there's project work to be done for the kids.

Coming Friday is "Crazy Hat" day for my kids at school cos the March Holidays are here!!!

Have a good weekend!

Stirling HDB Terrace - #40 Blossoming

pretty scent
Our previous owner had planted a jasmine tree just outside our place. And when we visited our place on friday, there wasn't any flowers there I swear. BUT. When we returned on saturday morning to check out our toilet wall sizes. I saw the pavement outside my flat filled with jasmine flowers. And it smelt pretty nice! I really enjoy having that plant around now. and many thanks to our previous owner too!!! ^_^
前人种树，后人乘凉

facts
The delicate jasmine flower opens only at night and may be plucked in the morning when the tiny petals are tightly closed, then stored in a cool place until night. The petals begin to open between six and eight in the evening, as the temperature lowers.

Stirling HDB Terrace- #14 BEFORE & After

Stirling HDB Terrace- #11 DIY Gifts for our Neighbours

PRESENTING....EAR PLUGS!

We know how noisy it gets when people start their renovations...so we decided to present ear-plugs as gifts for our neighbours before our renovation hacking works start. WJ and I went down to a hardware shop in chinatown to get them one weekend. After say 5mins of bargaining, we got each ear-plug for $1.30. Hmm is it cheap? I really dunno!!!
HOPE our neighbours love it though, the extra effort that we put in and the thoughts we give in.




cutting the reno cards up before distributing it tomorrow when the hacking starts. WOOHOO. The cards are design by yours truly, so wj just had to foot for the ear-plugs bill...hehehehe


i really enjoy doing these stuff... ^_^
