Kitchen cabinet belum pun naik, flooring rumah belum pun selesai, but I dah start collect inspiration for my vanity corner! Very miang, I know :D

Granted I'm limited by the small space (I can't take over the whole room obviously, because Saliheen is going to flip. Like a prata. Because he is bulat. Like a prata) anddddd I have to work with mostly existing pieces but a liiiiittle berangan and inspirasi never hurt no minah, right?  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I haven't really decided whether I want a regular large mirror or the kind which has LED bulbs all around but we'll see what happens when I make my next trip down to IKEA. I don't like the kerawang kerawang type so that style is definitely out lah.

I won't be buying a new table and chair as well since we don't have funds for frills like this after furnishing our new home with necessities! So I'll re-use what we have currently: the Micke desk from IKEA that Saliheen uses for his Playstation at the moment (He won't need it once we move to our new home)

For storage, it seems like IKEA's Nordli series are the most popular? I might have to make do without those first, for the same reason above. Maybe beli kotak kertas yang murah murah je dulu for storage, if I really need some.

I also already have a fairly large acrylic cosmetics holder and desk mirror with LED light (both from Howards Storage World) which you can see in my previous post here, but I think I'll need to get a couple of stuff from Muji and IKEA to complete the look. We've registered for Howards Storage World's private sale happening at the end of this month too, I'll see if there's anything that catches my eye!

Kosmetik Korner: The Beginning

I really like this idea of a lighted neon text a lot and have been holding on to this image since my wedding preparation days so that I can use it as inspiration! I was convinced that I would need to incorporate this feature into my new home... somewhere, anywhere,  EVERYWHERE! 

But of course, as with all things berangan, I don't think Saliheen will layan me because... where the hell are we going to find these neon lights?! Even if we can find someone who can customize this for us, we'll probably have to pay for it through our noses (read: mahal gila sampai hidung berdarah tak henti). Also, the wiring for this thing punyalah busy. President of the United States pun tak busy gini seh.

Oh well... time to find a more practical project? I'm trying to find inspiration for my vanity corner by the way, we have a spare guestroom so I'm claiming a liiiiittle corner for my vanity needs hehe. I already have a cute quote in mind to print and put up on the wall, nanti dah siap I will share with y'all.
