Putting up the Nursery: Part 4

Denden and I are both engineers, thus, we aren't good in art. Everything has to be plain and simple: measured, or symmetric. We then assigned the task of decorating the stickers for the nursery and the blue bathroom to the soon-to-be-titas, Shashing and MamaCherub.

Well, they did the alphabet in one line. Their explanation, it's supposed to be a train. They also arranged the numbers in a pyramid and because they didn't want to confuse Euen in the order.

When Denden looked at the room, he asked, "Talaga bang hindi sunod- sunod yung ABC?" He sang the alphabet: A B C D E J G F I M K H L N O P... Look closely in the picture. We all had a nice laugh while Shashing explained that they didn't notice their mistake. We pictured Euen singing the alphabet song that way and laughed even more because it will all be blamed to the tita's.

Yes, we arranged it in the correct order afterwards.

Mission Accomplished

Since we decided the Singapore trip was just us, sisters, I left Denden with some tasks to do at home. After all, it was a two-day Holiday, thus, the four day long weekend.

I thought that it would be the best time to change the laminate flooring in our bedroom, into tiles. I knew I wouldn’t be too good in handling laminate flooring because of the water spills, the unwaterproofed firewall during the first few months, and windows that I always forget to close during rainy season. So the solution was to change them into tiles. I knew this will be hardwork that I wouldn’t mind missing. The “walk-in closet system” had to be removed, our bed had to be disassembled, baseboards removed, then the laminate flooring. We chose the wood-looking rectangular tiles from Mariwasa with a darker color. After the installation, everything should be brought back to its old place.

I had to give Denden three-stars because it was a mission accomplished for him. Thus our bedroom looks brand new.

Exploding Mirrors

He finally found the right decoration to replace the big mirror in our living room. Bought during his trip to the US, at Ikea. This time, instead of one big mirror, he decided to get 4 sets of 4 mirrors, Sorli. They are squares with curved corners.

We finally settled on the design after a few discussions. Yes, we are both engineers, not artists. Thus, we call this, the exploding mirrors.
