♥ Love of Flowers ♥

It's been awhile no update our home blog. But would like to say, our blog is still alive! :P

Nothing much for this few months, our house, almost fill up with furniture and needed stuffs. Though as & when I'm still adding on kitchenware, which I love the most! Still hunting my new oven, going to give away my old Rowenta oven soon.

It's been our plan to get pretty flora at home. Thus, yesterday went to Bedok has our breakfast, and get some flowers from the flower stall. Which is cheaper and fresh flowers!

We mix & match the flowers from the stall, and try to test our flower 'skill', decorate it our own style! Hubby decorate for the big vase while I'm doing the small pot. Here is the outcome of the flowers deco..... we both like it very much, though we don't have the flower skill at all :P







The mix & match bouquet turned out very flowery and colorful. I love it very much! ^_^

More & more flowers at home!

Additional furniture from IKEA

We make another trip down to IKEA again to get the drawer & wardrobe that we saw before... good that hubby insisted to confirm measurement before we buy, phew~!

Bought 3 in total, 2 chests drawers plus 1 wardrobe. We paid for delivery but hubby insists not to pay for assembling fees, as he will assemble all by himself :S

IKEA delivered last weekend and hubby has started to assemble once the stuff arrived.



I was really impressed by hubby that he assembled all these by his own. He don't even allow me to help as he may know I couldn't help much :-( He managed t0 assemble all in few days time, he is MY MAN!~ ^_^

Here are the storage for different room:

BIRKELAND - Chests of drawers for guest room


STUVA MALAD - Drawer front for game room


PAX Wardrobe for guest room


The above chests drawers and wardrobe all assembled by hubby ALONE! Amazing huh...... really applause him, my superman! :P

Yeah, our guest room filled in now! Thank you hubby for all the hard work! ^_^ Muakz~

More greenery!

Hubby & myself went to IKEA on New Year's Day. Planning to get a wardrobe for our guest room, and additionally top up some greenery to our sanctuary home as well! :)

We finally saw 1 wardrobe where we both like it, suit our guest room color and most importantly - the price! It was less than $400! And I saw another cabinet that can match with the cabinet design.... We decided to get both, but hubby wanted to confirm the measurement of the guest room before buy. Thus, we will make another trip down to IKEA again.(yeah! can have my favorite chicken wing again! Yum yum~)

We bought 1 more cactus for our kitchen :P And here are the plants we add on to our house ^_^



This is the Lucky Bamboo we bought. A fengshui indoor plant :) We placed it at our dining table, for more wealth and health :P



Hubby was trying to study more about nurseries now, in order to take care of our plants :P

Happy New Year 2011!

~ Happy New Year 2011! ~

This is our 1st year celebrated New Year at our home sweet home :)

We have a mini party to celebrate the coming 2011 in our sanctuary home, together with our close friends and families. Before hand, I had ordered Rosemary Roasted Turkey from NTUC Finest since few weeks ago. Initially wanted to cook but due to I need to work on New Year's eve, thus decided just to buy it.

This year will be our 1st year celebrate White Christmas in our sanctuary home sweet home! The feeling is so good, and this is our 1st time to decorate our Christmas Carol tree together! Hooray~

Bought our Christmas tree from Robinson. Been looking around at Takashimaya, Tangs, and Metro, but nothing catch our eyes. This is the only tree where caught our eyes, 5" feet lovely artificial pine tree. There's sales going on thus we entitled further discount for Robinson member, bought it at $2xx. And we bought some Christmas ornaments from Robinson as well.

Hubby saw IKEA newsletter that ornaments is having sales and cheaper price than shopping outlet. Thus we went to IKEA Tampines yesterday to grab more :) Yeah, it was so much cheaper! We bought more ornaments to doll up our Christmas tree!

New 'Toy'

Sitex is here!! And?

Yup, and finally we bought one entertainment gear for our sanctuary home :) Wii!

Though hubby more interested by getting PS3, however, he would like to give something 'new' to our nieces/nephew when they visited our house, thus he gave up PS3 at the moment.

Wii can bring more fun to the kids, and of course, can let them 'calm down' easily :P



Fun Fun Fun! Spent 2 nights playing wii with our friends at home. Creating so much noise! Haha..

When can hubby get his PS3? Poor thing......

Twemco Twemco Clock~

Yeah, our retro clock finally arrived yesterday! Hubby had ordered this online since last month, but it needs more than a month to reach.

We originally spotted this clock from a shop in Plaza Parkroyal shopping mall. But hubby decided to hold before purchase, as he would like to check online for the pricing. Yes! And he managed to found a website where sold in cheaper price ^_^ thus, he ordered online....



We love this orange color Twemco clock very much. It managed to blend in very well with our living hall :)
