Reno Blog #26 - Curtain tracks, sinks and bathroom accessories up

Arranged to meet ID to go through any areas that needed touch up.

Curtain Tracks
The curtain tracks for the living room, master bedroom and bedroom 2 were up. Roman Blinds tracks for dining area and master bedroom bay window were also done up.

Pending:
The roman blinds control for the dining area window had to be adjusted as it was installed on the left hand side (i.e. middle of that wall) instead of at the right hand side, which would position it at the corner of the dining area, behind the kitchen sliding door. The tracks for the yard blinds and shower curtain in common bathroom, as well as blinds for study room were all not up yet. They had apparently made a mistake with the study room and drilled holes for curtain dual track and curtain holder instead, and patched the wrong holes up.

Installation of Kitchen Sink and bathroom accessories
At the same time, the plumbing guys were on hand to install the sinks and other accessories in the bathroom. The installation of the various accessories took a while as there was limited space and options to mount them. I then realised that we should have taken measurements of the various spaces before buying the stuff. Thus had to make do with some of the accessories and mount them at the best available position, even though it didn't look very elegant or in the most ideal position. Kinda regret not putting more thought into it before we went to buy the accessories.

Painting over of the shoe cabinet wall (alongside the dining area feature wall) was not ideal, as I could see two distinct shades of white on the same wall.

There would be a last round of cleaning/washing by the ID next week, before the curtains are delivered and mounted.
