Perfect Livin 2012: I am today’s highest Bidder
Posted by blurcheryl in Decorations, Home Improvement on April 8, 2012
Thats ME!
Today’s and up until this moment when I am writing this, I am the Current Highest Bidder for the Signature Kitchen that worth RM28000, a complete modern kitchen, with Kitchen Island and Marble top and inclusive of all appliances. I did not put a photo of the Kitchen here of course, I dont want any of you out-bid me eventhough its for Charity!!
I went to Perfect Livin on Thursday and the first thing I did was to register for the lucky draw. Aiyoh not lucky enough cannot get the 50 inch Panasonic Plasma TV!! @$#%#& . Nevermind lah, I still got 4 pcs of small Tupperware doorgift as consolation, for the first 500 visitors.
Spend 3-4 hours alone at Hall 1 & 2 each and found a good deal for a Bosch Oven. I so Kiasu I quickly put a deposit for it. Never thought I’ll find any Bosch appliances at such a good bargain or I simply choose to believe what the Bosch principal said
Was so hungry, we went to the Hall of Elegance to chill out. Its already late noon, so we had dessert and hot coffee.
Today (Sat) we went to the exhibition again to lock a few more deals. We never look at soft furnishing yet as those will be the least of our interest not until the renovation is completed. Again, we went to the Hall of Elegance to chill out throught-out the day, we were there again from 10AM till 8.30PM same on Thursday. Really crazy, like we work there like dat but we enjoy it nevertheless with good company and beer on draught! (P/S: Thank you Thank you)
One of the most important thing to renovate the house was to replace the flooring. We compare prices & quality from
- Lumbermart they have this promotion for Walnut Wood Flooring @ RM7.90/sf without installation (hmmph!!!)
- Innovar Laminated Wood Flooring Basiq with the price of RM5.50/sf incl installation
- Floor Depot with quite a variety of selection for 50% off without installation. The lowest price it can go is RM8 less 50% and installation @ RM1.90.
- Havana Flooring, never heard of them but they offer price like RM3.90/sf Laminated Flooring including installation.
We decided on RV Woods instead, they specialises in 100% Timber Flooring and we put a deposit for the cheapest material of Merbau Wood’s @ RM7.50 including installation but most likely we will upgrade if we didn’t burst our reno budget. *Pray Hard*
RV Woods let us take back the wood sample, so does Feruni Ceramics I got plenty of the small cut out square ceramic which I will use it as coaster wahahahha. I also learn alot on Aluminium Doors, there’s 2 reputable brand : Reliance & Hong Lee but more prefer to Hong Lee, I really learn alot from the exhibition and Hong Lee’s workmanship and material are better compare to Reliance. Good to know!! Price is higher too!! Ah well.. still have to stick to the budget, I wonder how much the home renovation going to cost us, kinda worried too
That’s all for now, did any of you went to Perfect Livin this weekend?
Oh also, if you have any good contractor to recommend me, that would be great!!

Exciting April!!
Posted by blurcheryl in Decorations on March 30, 2012
Hi everyone, its Friday!
Oh my my my it seems so fast time has passed .. it is the end of the weekday in the 1st quarter of the year. Time to bid farewell to March and Hello April.
I can’t wait for April really.. there will be so many things going on, getting the keys of my ‘new’ home, start paying for the house installment and embark in the new money spending project of home renovations and decorations. Its exciting and overwhelming at the same time.
Ever since we concluded on our house purchase, I have great interest in looking for house designs website and also magazines to give me inspiration on how to decorate and renovate my ‘new’ home.
Here I found a few beautiful home ideas that I like. What’s your style in home decorating? I think I am leaning on styles like rustic chic hehehe
Absolutely love the chalk wall. Good for leaving ‘love notes’ to my hubby

There’s a split level between dining and living hall, I’m cracking my head on how to renovate it

Love the white furnitures! Everything white!

Simplistic also can lah.

I think there’s plenty of space at my kitchen, but I prefer cozy kitchen and not too many cabinets. Hanging wall cabinets is a No -No for my house. I’m aiming for Kitchen like this.
I’d be keeping most of my dry food stuff etc in room downstair which will be converted to be a pantry and laundry room *fingers crossed*

I want Kitchen Island too!!!

Absolutely love louvre doors! Will it cost a bomb?

Dog is part of the decoration too.

How can anyone say no to dog???!!!!!
Wish me luck and joyful renovation journey okay!
I foresee that I’ll blog on this topic for months hahahaha probably longer than my NZ post.

My Fu Gwai Fa
Posted by blurcheryl in Decorations, Home Improvement on March 3, 2011
My colleague gave me a pot of Prosperity Flower scientifically known as Adenium or in canton call FUU GWAI FAR a couple of months back.
I didn’t really look after the plant except watering it and change to slightly bigger pot. Never have I ever thought it will blossom since I have been killing plants all along.
To my surprise!
Hubby (eat your word) my plant ain’t dying!
Its so gorgeous!!
My FUU GWAI FAR has 5 buds of flower, and 2 of it has blossoms more than a week back, during the lunar month.
Prosperity flower blossoms during Lunar month is really ‘Ong’ wan. Prosperity and Good fortune are sure coming my Way………………………… and people around me!! and my readers!
* ngeh ngeh ngeh ngeh* I dunno why I laugh like dat.

OMG!!!
I haven’t watered the plant for a few days liao!!!
Did it Rain yesterday?

As you may read it in my previous post Accidental Serial Killer I have killed several plants already! I hate to tell you, but I am striving here to keep this one alive.
Maybe with the present from our little niece, I’ll have better luck? * pray hard*
Here’s my New Potted Plant
I will make sure I go home today to water them. … I promise! Don’t die so soon… at least after Chinese New Year lar… Please…
