the_don SG i just found the new ikea catalog on my coffee table and am oready planning wat to get for my room. oh so tempted to get a bookshelf, a computer table....... p/s: pls excuse me if i sound suaku. i've been working non-stop for the past months so didn't know the catalog was out yonks
MooKu SG There is now an empty room! It's like a dream man.. woooohoo! But I'll need to get someone to remove the soundproofing boards and repaint the room for me before I can move anything in. Ideally, I'll have a sky-themed ceiling... A loft bed with a sofa underneath, also decorated with my favorite stuff and photo frames... And then I'll have a nice oil painting on the wall.... My study table at one side... Pretty curtains... ooooooo... But there's still the balcony. It's been locked for years and the key is with my uncle, who's now in England. We could cut the lock, but the balcony has an antenna and the piece of thing shading the balcony (at the top) is probably in shambles. Maybe I could seal off that door and I won't have anything to do with that dirty ugly balcony.
the_don SG wow!!! that is a room full of potiental!!! take your time ya? ii'm slowly adding pieces to my room, it's still in boxes even though i've moved in more then 6 months ago. any way to make use of your balcony? i love balconies. i use to sit outside with a book and a cup of tea when i was in aus..... haiz.. those where the days....
MooKu SG Got potential... maybe a bit. This house is very old... 29 years already! The room is actually located on the third storey, a place that has felt haunted to me ever since my uncle moved out. I've had nightmares about it - mysterious hidden doors that lead to huge areas beyond among others. And the room was left vacant and used to put junk left behind by my aunts. So it's like, pretty run-down. The bathroom flooring is ugly. The little tiles are not chipped, but the colors are patchy. And the toiletbowl looks creaky. It needs a facelift. But I only have enough money to pay for the paint job.
the_don SG i like earth tones too. my roon is cream (think vanilla ice cream) and part of a wall is latte color.
the_don SG hummm..... a good paint job would liven up the place. take your time, little by little and i'm sure your room would become your castle
MooKu SG A loft bed is like a bunk bed, but instead of having a bed below, it's an empty space which you can make use of... say, put a sofa or clothes drawers or study table. Aiyah, it's an elevated bed. Best loft bed in the Ikea catalog is the one that can be turned upside down to make it a lower bed. Actually I'm hesitating about the loft bed... cos I'm afraid to sleep in it.
MooKu SG I do hope so... I think I'll paint the stairway as well... It's a dull shade of green now... I think if I paint it a brighter color, it'll help to take away the scary scary feeling.
MooKu SG What if I roll down? But a loft bed is actually a very good buy, because the bed is so high up, you don't get the temptation to lie there when you're studying And it's cleber use of space.
the Bear SG i wanna throw away my stereo.. but it's still in serviceable condition... that'll free up more space in my cluttered room.. thing i have to make room for is that 29" tv in my room
