Our clock

we got a clock similar to the one we like! Unfortunately while it doesn't come in red, it's fits the living hall nicely still. It was a gift from our friends at Bara Interior. Thanks very much for blessing us with this gift!

Attempt at Nature

We love the tall Yucca plant at Far East Flora that's designed for indoor use. there are no holes at the base of the pot and it's been specially done with a water level tube so you can safely and easily look after the plant. However, it's $168 and we're wondering whether it would be worth the buy. We wont mind a fake version but dont think they sell such plants in plastic! also, the outdoor version is only 98, making it more of a pinch to buy the indoor version.

Till we get a real plant, here's what we've done to our bedside tables to incorperate nature into our lives :P

Golden Leaf Curtain

We got our curtaiins at this store at Whampoa Central. The boss and staff are friendly and nice. Prices were affordable too, our whole house was under one thousand for 2 roller blinds, 2 roman blinds and 1 full length curtain. Perhaps our windows were tiny so they helped to lower costs.

We wanted a lovely grey suede curtain but they were short of the material required for our full-length curtains in the living room! Horrors! The boss did a check with all her material suppliers but they had either ran out of sufficient stock, did not have the appropriate colours or discontinued all suede materials. We reckon suede wasn't a popular choice but 10minutes of searching brought us back to square one...we really loved the grey suede. Lady boss decided she could use whatever material she had and then finish up with thick black material. The outcome was quite splendid. Thank God for that!




The installation guys were fairly late though. The appointment was 1pm but they came at 230pm because they were held up at another job site. I don't forgive lateness of this extreme nature. They were wasting my time and I initially wanted to leave house at 3pm but had to delay till 4pm. >:( - ally

Pretty clock

Yes, we shouldn't be buying exorbitantly priced clocks but hey, check this out...we think it's perfect for the living room to match our dining lamp. If only they still sold it here...

The Buying has got to stop for now...

Because we have officially ran out of joint savings money. We still have some personal savings but the money we've put aside for the house is nearly used up, and without us paying for renovation extras, electrical works and plumbing! Not to mention, we have no study chairs or coffee table hah!

There are many household items we still need so we guess we'd have to scrimp, save or dig them out from the deepest crevices of our pocket for the time being.

The house is completely worth it though. It's comfortable and beautiful, but we're still getting used to it. Currently, it feels a bit like we're in transition, sort of like living out of a hotel room.
