IKEA and Chai Aluminum Builder (Kitchen Cabinet)

Warning: Verbose entry

Salam

Kitchen Cabinet hunting starts on Sunday. Sebab Saturday we just lazed around at home, spending quality time with family plus doing some house chores…hihi.  Ye la, 2 weeks in a row Azman and Aisyah tak sihat, really cannot do anything lah…haiyoh…on Saturday tu dah buat 3D hand drawing and dah amek ape-ape ukuran yang patut.

Beginilah rupa hasil kerja tangan Azman

The next day, which is Sunday, pagi2 dah keluar, first destination of course la pi breakie dulu…hihi…having heavy breakfast since kitaorg expecting to have late lunch or most probably kene skip lunch. We don’t have much time.

Weekend is the only time yang we can go out hunting for the home deco stuff. Usually I and Azman won’t opt to go out on weekdays. Lepas tuuuu.......out of the blue Azman said, let’s go to IKEA first. So, after breakfast, instead of heading off to KC store, we went to IKEA!!!! YAY!!

Guess what? We spent 2 hours surveying around the IKEA…so sekarang we have a clear picture of the KC design. Inside the KC tu, nak letak shelf semua ke, nak ade pull out drawer ke, wire drawer ke...macam-macam la info yang dapat when pegi IKEA. We didn’t buy anything pon kat IKEA. Jalan-jalan. tengok-tengok, planning-planning and go off.

IKEA here and there

Cantik tak Mellby Armchair ni?

Next stop is Chai Aluminum Builder (CAB).

We brought our so-called layout KC plan to CAB, and sampai2 jek, terus discuss pasal kitchen measurement and KC design. Eceh..tanya² soalan pon macam expert jek. Mentang² la baru pergi IKEA kan..bhahahaha.

Discuss punye discuss, keluarla satu price from CAB. Mak aiiiii makcik oiii…memang definitely out of our budget la. Wuwuwu…so devastated la you…I was taken aback with the cost actually, but I tgk muka Azman rilex jek. Okke then.

The sales girl said she quoted us based on the promotion price, normal price would be double the price. Whoaaahh….the KC really cost us a fortune laaaa. I’m afraid that we might have to postpone. There you go. No Consensus been made. The End. Balik. L

In the car

Aisyah pon dah tak larat nak jalan...tido jek la ecah ye....

Me: B, y u doesn’t look surprised with the price yg CAB tu quote(RM18K)?

Azman : I tau je yang memang KC is around that price.

Me: Oooww…meaning u know that we will be out of our budget ker?

Azman: We won’t. Trust me.

Me: (Dumbfounded) are we going to cut down allocations for others (autogate, flooring, plaster ceiling)?

Azman: We work it out okke.

Me: (Tak menjawab soalan)

We were home by 430pm.

After Maghrib Azman start working on the KC again. Aisyah went to bed dy. Relatively keadaan agak tenang untuk berfikir. After cracking our head, we come to a decision to go for IKEA KC.

We'd downloaded IKEA KITCHEN PLANNER to design the KC. Tapi using this gizmo is quite troublesome jugak la. (TIPS: Do register yourselves first before start using the planner). Bukan quite troublesome, memang SANGAT mendokusai (menyusahkan). But you have to be patience la and u’ll be amazed and contented with the aftermath. We took almost 5hours to completely patching up the cabinets.

Azman said nak buat guna autocad kat ofis je on Monday tapi dah tak sabar sangat nak tgk the outcome, gigih jugak guna planner IKEA ni.

Lepas tu kami buat kira², and you know what, the cost is much much much cheaper than CAB. Cost of CAB KC is RM18K, while IKEA (based on what we've choose) is RM 9090.Can you see the difference.

IKEA's KC can be mahal and can be murah depends on your design and preference sebab IKEA offers a wide range of harga based on your budget and your kebesaran dapur.

Costing:
Left hand side: CAB,
Right hand side: IKEA (Yang we do on our own)

Indeed because of the material la, CAB guna aluminum with granite table top while IKEA, we choose particleboard, fiberboard and segala board bagai (most likely to get termite infestation). Takpe, panggil orang pest control buat service before install the KC ye (sedapkan hati).

Bye bye Mellby.....JJJ

Over The Moon Part 2

Salam Jumaat

I’ve been dreaming endlessly after we got green light to renovate the kitchen area and makeover the living room. Sangat haywire living in a house that full of fittings yang  caca marba. No matter how hard I try to tidy up the room, it still doesn’t look neat as a pin.

So, skarang mood yang sangat excited untuk verangan and planning for the KC. I start to roughly draft on the KC and wardrobe design sebab I want to make it as perfect as possible. We are not filthy rich and we need to spend the money wisely. I have to precisely plan so that we will not regret and grieve over it in the future.

For the start, I jot down dulu semua dining ware, plastic container, pots and pans, sundry etc etc yang ada kat dapur sekarang so that I would have rough idea on the KC design. Where to put this and that. Same goes to build in wardrobe for master bedroom.

Sketch 

And I pon ade survey² contractor untuk KC through the net. So far, xde yang bagi full info as I required i.e. measurement and cost.  Kalau nak tahu cost kene PM and so on. Mendokusai.

Besides, the most important end is the contractor mestilah near my housing area. Cari punya cari, terjumpa satu contractor kat FB (Chai Builder Aluminum Kitchen Cabinet). So, let’s pay him a visit tomorrow.

Eventually we have ample money to start home reno. Punye la hari2 verangan nakade my own KC. So, now it is time to start planning on the renovation.work. Since the money saved is not that much compared to what me wish to do , me have to precisely plan and work within the budget lah kan.

My never ending wish list

1. Extend backyard
2. KC
3. Plaster ceiling
4. Level up floor
5. Build in wardrobe in MB
6. Secure space under the stairs for storing system
7. Pergola
8. Autogate

Tengoklah which one can be done with that much of money.

My House

Assalamualaikum

Renovating a house will never be a piece of cake. NEVER! Unless you have a fortune of money to splurge on hiring an interior designer like meridien. They will do all the works for you. All you have to do is just advise them on the concept that you want.

As for me and hubby, it doesn't go that way.

We bought our house in late 2010 (6 months after we bertunang) through an agent. Bear in mind that if you're considering to get an agent, you've to pay him/her 1% of the housing price. Reapfield is one of the trusted props agent that you can count on to.

We've been house hunting for at least 4 5 months before we eventually found this sekangkang kera house that match our budget.

The S&P of the house took almost a year starting Jan 2011. We are getting married at that time and expecting to occupy the house somewhere in June 2011 (just after our nuptial), but alas the S&P process is not done on the expecting time-frame.

Why does it took so long? Because the first owner is a Singaporean (Oh, forgot to tell that we are buying a secondary house) and it's very difficult to get him to sign off the concession. This is where the agents are for. He has done a very good job by hammer out a deal with the Singaporean for us to occupy the house despite the S&P hasn't accomplished yet.

Guess what? We've been staying 6 months for free before we start to pay the installment.

Even though this is a second-hand house, but the condition is still like new. No traces of nail holes at all. No water leaking. Paint is still there and not yet faded. No scribbles or scratch on the wall.

So, here we are, after almost 3 years living in the basic designed house, we've finally made up to do a minor renovation.

Kerja Oh Kerja

Makin hari makin bosan nk kerja. I've asked my better half, is there any possibilities that I can quit my job so that I can concentrate to our family and start planning for my business. Alas, the answers is disheartening.

3 days without my better half

Dah 3days my husband is away..and this is the first time since Aisyah was born that he is away...i just cudnt handle it at the first day...but at last...x la sengsara sangat pon without him around...hikhikhik....i went to stay at my father's place....
