Our Wedding Favours...for the adults

Bottle stoppers are good not just for the wines but also sesame oil :p

Swivel It with VERNER

Have been up to my nose with work, cleaning of our new house and also the prep work of our forthcoming wedding on 16 May 2009. Too much has happened during this period to really log in every episode. But thought I share one of our latest purchase from IKEA and my comments on it.

As a IKEA Friend's member, every $10 you spend earns you one Bonus Point. But the irony is that the 10 points earns you a $1 voucher value only. We must have spent quite a substantial amount at IKEA just buying those miscellaneous stuff. We thought the points we earned could perhaps be substantial too. However, no. I managed to use 100 over points to exchange a $15 vouchers...which we end up using it to buy this work chair in our study room. The chair complies with the California TB117 flammability requirements and is tested and approved for home use. The casters are designed for soft floors. PARAGRAF casters for hard floors are sold separately.

Our Decal is Up...and the accidental Red Birdy

We pasted our decal on the kitchen glass sliding door...Finally!!! Amanda from Decorette enclosed a small sample piece (which is the red birdy you see on top of our monogram decal) for us to do a trial prior to putting up the actual decal. Some how, the red birdy seems fit to stay. The colour kind of blend with our red kitchen theme

However, we may do some correction on the text (our names and the date). Firstly, I think they are a bit too small and non-proportionate. Secondly, we pasted the date a bit slanted by accident. Arggg...
