HIP - TV Area

I realized that I call my husband so many different names on this blog... first it was Alan... then OWLoon cos that's his nickname to Dee sometimes cos' that's what I call him and now Hb which stands for hubby... So from now onwards, think I will just address him as Hb lah... easier...

So anyway, Hb and I are on a Home Improvement Project (code named: HIP).

The last time we did that was prior to our wedding... the reburbishment of the entire master bedroom and attached toilet... where every single item was brand new from wall colours to built in wardrobe to furniture to electrical items... everything! But because we repainted the entire house and re-wired the whole place during the last HIP... this time round, our HIP involves only furniture hunting! But guess what??? HIP - Furniture is so much more FUN than HIP - Renovation!!! At least, there are WAY less mess to clean up... :D

So anyway, our HIP - Furniture project started with our living room where we started our hunt for sofa, TV rack, coffee table, lamps and wallpapers... It took us forever to decide and to agree on what to buy... that in the end, we found our TV sitting on the floor pathetically...

What happened was this... We asked the guard at our place if he'd be interested to have our old bulky 34 inch TV along with its TV rack... and he immediately said YES!!! But he was so happy that together with the gardener, they came and carried both the items away on the same day itself (actually, it was more like within 10 minutes of Hb asking him...)! So with the TV AND THE TV RACK gone, we had no choice but to force ourselves to relook at all our previous choices...

That day, we went to Klang and purchased 4 items... and luckily... managed to get them all delivered on the same day itself...!!! We bought a TV rack with a matching coffee table... and best of all, 2 lamps that we really liked... one standing lamp and the other one being a table lamp!

For sentimental purposes... here's how our old bulky TV and rack looks like... hehehe... Hb and I nearly d.i.e.d of exhaustion moving it to the side of our living room to make way for our flatscreen TV...!!!

The following day, we went to another outlet in PJ to place our deposit for the sofa... but unlike the outlet in Klang, delivery can only be made 10 working days later!!! So yala... that's a post on its own for some other day...

Oh and before I forget, since we are focussing on the living room first, we only added blinds to hide away the naked windows... in our kitchen... :)

Ahhh... the joy of shopping!!! :D
