Blims & Uratex

Senso Memory Original

One would think that it's cheaper at the source, but in this case, it cost us much less to buy Uratex mattresses at Blims.

Mattress Type	Blims	Uratex
1 pc. Senso Memory Original - Queen	24,300	25,600
2 pcs. Orthocare Balance - Twin	19,720	24,400
Delivery Fee	1,000	340
TOTAL	45,020	50,340

 

That's a difference of Php 5,320!

We looked at other mattress brands such as Vono, Dunlopillo, Ambassador, and Salem, but it was Uratex that won out in terms of price, size, and feel.

The Inspiration

I saw this at IKEA and immediately liked it.

The Space

This wall needed something, but I wasn't sure what. At first, I thought maybe a print from Diana Francis, but it's a little out of our budget and not to mention bulky (the problem of how to bring it home). Then I saw the wall arrangement at IKEA and knew that was the answer.

The Plan

I hit a roadblock when I realized that most of our photos are horizontal and not vertical. Thus, the need to redo the layout.

The Result

Elements: Main Bedroom 1

Boxes

The one thing I love collecting. Not only will they add color to a room, they also keep things in order. But I'm rather particular about the kind of material used - no matter how pretty, if it's not easy to clean, then I will not buy it.

My most recent acquisition is the Modello Storage Box S from Francfranc with black and white stripes. I got two at SGD 25 each and I think they give the bookcase a bit of balance.

The yellow box is from Daiso which only costs SGD 2. I'm not usually into warm colors, but this was rather cheerful.

The other boxes are temporary until I find something more interesting.

Clock

This SGD 85 clock that I bought from Thinkers Novelty was originally meant for the guest room, but somehow it didn't quite go with the blue walls. I transferred it to the main bedroom instead and it looks better suited against a white background.
