I’ve been wanting to blog about some home décor ideas since last October (!!!) but somehow didn’t get to it lol. I have this entire folder of pictures with décor ideas that I collected and thought I will share it here for future reference.
These pics are mostly from Facebook’s interior design pages as well as renovation forums (credits to the pictures' owners).So inspired when I see them, I hope I don’t bust my renovation budget in time to come lol. Bf and I went to Ikea and lighting shops to look around sometime ago, I know it’s still too early but need to check out market price first so we can set a budget and start saving =p
Already have some inkling what features I want though I am not sure if I want to set a theme =p it’s mostly rojak now, here goes!
Living Room
both of us love to drink so a mini bar in the living room corner will be perfect. concoct some drinks here and then watch tv or chit chat at the bar, wah shiok!
my brother bought this chandelier recently for our current living room. freaking chio! i want something like this next time too!
love love love chandeliers. this is something different and very bold. look like a scene from a garden, probably cause of the street lamp look-alike!
interesting tv feature wall, i will like some texture on my tv feature wall next time as well. either bricks or some 3D design
i am sitting on the fence about brick walls (scandinavian theme) as it looked too raw for me but i think a partial brick wall like below will be a nice touch to an otherwise plain wall
this is for winnie the pooh fans! i find it cute, winnie the pooh had always been my favourite disney cartoon :) this will be good for kids' room maybe but too overkill for living room.
Bedrooms
i seriously want a see-through master bedroom toilet, bf says i am crazy =x but i am quite set on this lol
pretty room co-ordination but the whole room in lilac is too girly for us, i think i will 很快就看腻. love the rough wallpaper and matching bedframe + headboard though
besides that, I don't have much inspiration for bedrooms yet lol.
Bathrooms
NEED: a seater in the shower area for lazy moments. bf say this will waste water cause sit down too relaxed, mai get out of the shower haha!
conflict between rainshower and bathtub. both seems cool. maybe will consider rainshower in 1 toilet and bathtub in another toilet so we can get the best of both worlds in 1 house. space for the bathtub is a problem though.
half glass panels instead of full ones. people usually do full glass panels for the shower area yeah?
i think blue and white is a lovely colour combination for bathrooms, got the 清新的感觉!
this waterfall tap is too cute!!!
Kitchen
i love to cook and bake so the kitchen is very important! top most NEED: oven! my ideal kitchen colour is wine red, so classy! i will wanna stay in it all day to cook haha #justsaying
this shade of red is too red for me but the colour placing and coordination with the dining area is nice. love the kitchen glass door!
i also plan to hack my service yard walls away and extend my kitchen. see the difference!!!
playing with the idea of open concept kitchen but the downside is that if you cook often, the living room will get oily very easily.
looking at my floor plan, this kitchen island layout from ikea should work for my house. but i dunno if i want open concept lehhh. chio but hard to maintain.
another idea from ikea: iron rods to hold the utensils and mosaic backsplash for an industrial look
Walk-in-Wardrobe
still trying to convince bf to do a WIW for my never-ending clothes, bags and shoes =x
compartments for earrings, necklaces and watches~~~ 一目了然。right now, my accessories are all packed together and it's so hard remembering what i have and finding what i want every morning. end up no time i just anyhow pick and rush out.
Miscellaneous
Top favourite of mine: mini lights on the ceiling! Looks like stars no? I loveee this and I must have it! I used to paste glow-in-the-dark stars on my room's ceiling for I love looking at them before I sleep, so this will be like a childhood dream come true hehehe
Was worried initially that no one in SG does lights this way as the pic was of an overseas house. BUT I saw one of the local ID firm sharing this pic and tadah, I think this works for me as well. lol a much subtle version of the above pic but at least I know it's feasible =p
will it be too overkill if i place these blue star lights on the ceiling ? lol. this is from ikea by the way, S$12 only!
as mentioned in my earlier entries on taiwan travelogue, we bought this jigsaw puzzle over there. will piece them together and frame it up to hang in the living room/bedrooms
photos or polaroids are a good way to decorate the wall as well!
wardrobe or door handles that i've seen at hotels recently, super bling and pretty! especially the swarovski look-alike handle omg~~~ swarovski handle at changi village hotel and the silver mosaic handle at our kaohsiung minsu.
cute to have such a decal sticker pasted on the bomb shelter door. paris is 1 of my dream city to visit!
that's a portion of what i have collected so far for past few months. i have more pics but these are my favourites and more relevant to local flat sizes lol. will share again in future if i find more pics :)
