Experience:
Renovating a CR with a dimension of 1m Width x 1.8m Length was very difficult, because you have to plan carefully in order to avoid cluttered fixtures and wrong color combination. These were the things that Dwyt and I have done and learned before and after the renovation.
1. Plan Carefully. Using a steel tape, Dwyt measured the width, length and height of the CR and I sketched it using Sweet Home 3D.
2. Color Scheme. Based on my research, to make smaller space look bigger, pastel colors should be used. Since our CR already have an existing blue floor tiles and a blue stripe tiles, we both agreed to buy a blue plain colored tiles for the remaining half portion of the wall.
3. Buy stainless steel items. Please do not use plastic or chrome items for the CR as much as possible because these type of material easily gets damaged.

Unexpected Shopping...

I am so happy that it's Sunday because this is the best time to relax after a stressful week. So, Dwyt and I decided to have window shopping and dinner in Ayala Center. We went to the department store to check for lighting fixtures, wooden bed, wardrobes and tables.

Dwyt's 1st Choice

Dwyt's 2nd Choice

Both 4-seater dining table is perfect for our temporary dining area soon to be an mini-entertainment room. In the end, its Dwyt's 1st choice that prevails because according to him, it is unique in style. 

San-Yang Wardrobe (Dwyt's 1st Choice)

San-Yang Wardrobe (Dwyt's 2nd Choice)

Dwyt really liked a 4-door wardrobe but because of the limited space in the bedroom we decided to choose his 2nd choice of wardrobe (for only Php6,885.00.

We did not expect to buy these things instantly but since it was on sale, we just grabbed the opportunity. We added Php380.00 for the delivery charge of the two items.
