Furniture for the Master Bedroom

Having left with a mere 3 months to our big day and that we would like to settle the room first before focusing on the rest of the wedding plans, we spent most of the weekends shopping for furniture. After a few rounds of visit to Ikea, the furniture mall, Balestier, Defu Furniture, Courts, Nova furnishing, Brighton, Novena...bla bla bla We finally made some purchases and more or less settled for some other items. Gona go purchase the rest of them this weekend. The Prelude: before we start shopping around for the furniture, i chanced upon the below Victorian set at a reasonable price of $2k plus. Simply gives the Oomph feel! But since our bedroom theme is white and red, this colour will be a tad off. They have it in white colour too just that the wardrobe is way too small as well. So after some consideration, we decided to shelf off this option totally. We kind of decided to have a storage bed instead (as above). Since the bed takes up most space in your room. Imagine

Light for our Bedroom

To shop for a suitable light for our red / white themed contemporary bedroom, we went to the infamous Balestier of course! It's like a must go if you're shopping for lights since it's a whole street filled with nothing but lights stores ahaha.. Though disappointing, most of the designs we've seen there across the shops are pretty similar & not much of a difference in price too.

Furthermore the ceiling's not high enough to have a nice chandelier light.. and then..we chanced upon the Nova Furniture at Paya Lebar Road, A-Z building. Didn't know they had lights as well. They are also having a moving out clearance sale and so..the deal is on!! Tadah! Light for our bedroom has been decided and fixed. For a mere $150 including installation and removal of the old light. They can

How to plan the layout of your bedroom

We've been busy shopping around for furniture and ideas for our bedroom so have been neglecting all the blog updates. At the same time, kind of feeling the pressure since it's a mere 3 months to our wedding and other then the room preparations, nothing else has been done or planned yet for our wedding...*oopz* anyway just thought how we planned for the room layout was pretty cute. Haha...being also a virgo, Mr. Keir has been pretty organised and have most things well-planned out..so we had this ingenious idea of drawing out our own "blue print" for the room.. Actually Mr. Keir started it, he drew out a general map of our room and this is his version. a male's version of a map, with ruler, straight lines and precise.. So me decided to have my own detailed version, with close up on the furniture as well as window dimensions Waha...the difference between a male's map and a female's. Ok maybe it's just me..lazy to use ruler la..
