furniture

*back dated entry*

very busy week since we are expecting our furniture.... we ordered most of them from IKEA, not that we are a fan of IKEA but it does sell simple furniture at affordable prices & you have the luxury of strolling through the store without being pester by salespersons.... since all our furniture are not wall mount, we opt for the self assembly = save $...

IKEA delivery

haha so many boxes of things arrived & they were all so damn heavy!!! if you asked the staff to do assembly, it would be super fast since they do that everyday but it took us quite a few days to slowly assemble everything.... let me share the final products =)

TV console in progress

chair for study room

mini dining table

chairs + racks in wardrobe

dining area

wall mount flip table

among all the stuff we bought from IKEA, i strongly recommend the flip table... as i mentioned our service yard is pathetically small, we can afford to have more fixtures... so this flip table is really useful when you need extra space when preparing for meals... but it would be better if you get a handyman to drill the holes for you.... since hubby & I were not pro at such things, it took us quite afew tries to get the table mounted on the wall....

another big furniture we gotten is a new bed.... we ordered ours from cozy bedding at westgate.... we prefer Slumberland since my family have been using that brand for a long time.... but the store doesnt have suitable design so we gotten vono mattress which is a sub-brand under Slumberland....

bed frame

mattress

the mattress + bed frame cost $1399... reasonable price i would say... the mattress is 10"thick... nowadays the mattresses are all so damn thick due to some pillow top thing... i agree it maybe more comfortable but it is very difficult to find bed sheet for such thick mattress!!!! so i recommend 10' mattress, its good enough to provide good support =)
