One of the top things on my list of to-do’s this Holy week/ vacation is to do a house general cleaning. Time to do some fixing around the house too. Will try to buy some  house stuffs over the weekend like bathroom fixtures for our newly renovated bathroom and some decors for the living area.

I am actually searching for nice scented Large candles over the net as I can’t find one at the mall.  I saw nice and of quality candles at The White Company, a haven for different products for your home. From bedroom essential collections of duvets, pillow, blankets, etc. to your bathroom accessories like stylish laundry basket, bathroom ceramics. They even got a wide variety of choices for other  essentials like furniture, kids. clothing and other gift items.

I know I have been MIA again for quite awhile. I have been too busy (what’s new?!) with offline activities- office work and mommy duties. But glad to have accomplish something for the house.

Part of our home project early last year was the bathroom makeover, but it was put on hold since our budget is not enough to cover the expenses. We have to take into consideration some other important matters like our monthly budget and the kid’s educational/ school expenses.

but the long wait is over! We have finally push through with the bathroom renovation…

Materials (tiles, cement,etc) for the bathroom renovation

Work started last Monday and hubby told me that  everything is all done by tomorrow.  I can’t wait to see the new look by then! 🙂

 

 

I was the one who chose the tile design, DH wanted the other color (beige/tan) but of the same design. But I prefer the grayish-black.

to match this flooring tiles. I prefer simple and minimal design which I think is  just perfect for a relaxing ambiance for the bathroom.

I am hoping that the kids’ room renovation will also take place this year. I am hoping and praying for a good and smooth work flow (online and offline) so we could save up for the said project.

I remember how our house went a terrible mess after the typhoon Ondoy’s wrath a few years back. Everything was submerged into the flood water, water and electricity were cut off in some areas. It took us a couple of days cleaning and organizing things, trying to save some of the furniture and appliances.

The worst part is that pests like cockroaches and rats just started to came out of nowhere. Ewww! We were worried about our health and safety then, especially that we have two kids in the house who loves to play around. Good thing we were able to get the a quality and reliable services like that of Houston Pest Control that specializes in getting rid pests like roaches.

You have to get professional services like them as they have the essential tools and expertise in dealing with these pest and for your peace of mind and confidence on the safety and cleanliness of your home.

We are so looking forward to finish all the project planning we have for our home this year. We were not able to accomplish a lot last year as we are short with the budget. We’re are on a tight budget, so to speak.

We are optimistic that we can deliver with most of the house projects this time. First, we hope to finish the bathroom makeover that has been put on hold for quite sometime. Second, the kid’s room repair. Hopefully, they can already use their room in the middle of the year.

DH has just started on painting the flooring in our terrace here:

 

Next will be the wall painting. Some fix and repairs are needed inside the house like pipe leaks, ceiling fix. Summer is coming too in a couple of months so we are looking around on a home service center for our air-conditioning unit. A quality and of good service center like AC Service Ft Mill. Buying a new unit is out of our options at this time. We bought our AC a couple of years ago and it has really served its purpose well. It just suddenly work well, cooling takes sometime to take effect. I guess a little bit of cleaning and fix will do the trick.

The mattress that we are using right now has long served its purpose very well and badly needs a new replacement. It doesn’t fit the bed sheets anymore because the shape is already deformed. The queen sized mattress has been more than ten years according to DH, would you believe that he has been using it since his single days?!  We are looking for the same brand of the mattress and boy I was surprise! The price is quite hefty, no wonder it can last over a decade of use 🙂

We are on a tight budget right now so I have to scout for other brands that can fit the budget. I am looking around for mattresses online and have found some at Deals Direct that offer wide selection of home and office furniture, storage solutions and other other useful products as well at a very low and discounted prices. Hope we could find an equally quality made mattress yet friendly in our pocket price.

A dream house is what everybody wants to achieve. We all work hard to be able to have one for our family, a humble abode that we could call our very own. Of course, we all want the best for our house. In order to achieve that, we need to look for a reliable home builder that can live up to our needs and expectations.

Getting the service of a reliable home builders in Edmonton which is the Rohit Communities is the best thing to do as they specialize in building family homes townhomes, condos, duplex, bungalows, apartments etc.Being able to work hand-in hand with these professionals, you may feel confident enough of being able to live in your future and realized home sweet home!

Our neighbor had this going away sale a few months ago and we were able to buy some home stuffs at such a great deal!  Among the plenty of bathroom sinks that they offer, we were able to spot this sink with cabinet and paid for it immediately. We are yet to install this in the bathroom as we have postponed the bathroom makeover to give way to other expenses that we need to consider first. After the installation of wall and floor tiles, we will be buying other stuffs such as decors and other bathroom essentials.  Can’t wait to see the new look of it!
