the bf's friend recommended lights arcade (321 balestier rd), saying that they had very reasonably priced lights, and that if we had any lights in mind that were not on display, we could get them to check if they could get it for us & do a 'package' deal with them.
the lady we met there (jen-e loh) was really friendly & went around recommending lights that to us when we told her the type of look & feel that we wanted. her opinions were really helpful. definitely will visit their shop again if i ever need to change lights next time. and yes. i'd recommend them too. but of course with the disclaimer tt it's always wise to 'shop around' first so you know what the prices are like la.
the total quote that she came up with was reasonable- we actually meant to just go there to get a quote, but the fact that she chased me down to return my handphone which i accidentally left at their store was probably the clincher. lol. we ended up paying the deposit (only $50) to them & the rest was history. hehe.
bedroom entrance downlight (halogen light, movable. $20)
study room light (rectangular with wooden border & glass top $90 for double tube)
we got recommended this as the jen said that the tubes would be significantly brighter for the study. other than the shape & tubes used, it looks the same as the rest of the rooms!
bedroom lights (square with wooden border. $65 each)
we actually wanted a simpler looking one with just a plain brown border tt was going for $90 in other shops... but was told that the one we wanted would be a hassle as the bulb changing is difficult due to the structure. oh well. this was just as good. save $$ s'more. :)
toilet lights- mini 'hamburgers' (fibre glass acrylic $30 each)
we wanted to get the cheaper normal versions, but were told that these would not turn yellow for loooooong loooong time. so ok la. hope it means i will be better able to squeeze those tiny tiny zits easily coz i can see them so well in the white light for a loooong loooong time!
