Plants and Vase

This will make or break the design. I always feel that this element is of utmost important to bring some "live" and colour to the house. It is also an area that I am not familiar with. Initially I wanted to do a vertical garden in my yard all the way up to the first floor. Seem like a wishful thinking now as I have "burst" my budget. I am also afraid the plants will die on me. I have seen these plants wilted and browned in many vertical gardens. I don't want to waste that kind of money. I have also thought o using artificial plants. Somehow, it feels lacking. The final choice, or my current choice is some hanging plants like the picture below. It is still hard and expensive. I went to a few nurseries, most of these plants need to grow in half shaded area. As of time of writing, I am still searching. I am not giving up yet. I bought some plants and vases however. All in already costs me Rm 446. Potting mix after searching for my hanging plants. Bought from one

Autogate

The last piece of the "hardware" is finally installed. I specifically asked for DC moto since everybody in the industry says it is a good automation. I have yet to really test it but I am praying that it would last more that 2 years. My current house's autogate geve us so much problems that we finally gave up and use manual pushing. ...until we have time to look into what to do. So far I am loving the functions as it could open left and right. It is also faster as it works using double arms and can open concurrently unlike our sliding gate whereby I have to wait for like 40 seconds for the door to fully open. I'll update again when the autogate is broken.

Cabinets are in today!

Ok, I have to say that I am pretty excited about the cabinets. It has always been my dream to have my own kitchen. I have allocated quite a sum for this purpose. Thanks to a friend's recommendation, the cost is vastly reduced. Having said that, I did add a sink unit and additional quartz which adds up to the number. My sink unit that costs RM800. Not really happy with this price. The guys forgot my free basket. They rectified that on 26th Mac. Just love how the texture of the backsplash popped out from the lights
