Recycle ♻️ from eggs container πŸ₯šfor seedling potπŸͺ΄ πŸ˜‹

Hi Everyone !! πŸ˜‡

How are you? Hope everyone is in good health and conditions.

Since 2018, I’ve started my journey as minimalist. Now, at the end of 2025, I’m heading to back to a basic lifestyle, reducing expenses and living an optimum lifestyle.

I try to make something useful from every container, box, bottle and reuse it for other purposes. One of it was eggs container which I feel is very useful and filled my needs.

Living in a small home in town, had opened my eyes to cut some expenses, and I started from my groceries.

Making a seedling pot from eggs container πŸͺ΄

1. Cut into 2 for the normal eggs container and put the cover under the eggs container as per in the photo.
2. Make a little hole on each of the bottom for the eggs container as per in the photo above. You can cut a little bit with a scissor/blade and use pencil/chopstick to make a small round hole.
3. Put 2/3 of mixed soil into the container like this and put each of the containers with seeds, onions, and ginger (whatever you want). I’m using chilli, tomato, ginger, and garlic as these are normally I use for cooking.
4. Then, cover the rest of the container with the same mixed soil and water it.
5. This photo is after 5 days I’m watering it. As for now, I can see garlic and tomato started sprouting from the seeds. Can’t wait to see the rest soon πŸ₯°β€οΈ

If you have a landed property, it will be awesome for this activity. Please pray for me to have landed property soon, so I can make more diy project to recycle things I have at my home. πŸ˜‡

Good luck, guys!!

A lil bit left….for the house…πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

Hey hey heyy, hey everyone!! How are ya? Hope you are all doing good.

Just wanna share some ideas on what I’d completed to my 1st home. A lil bit touch up before ready to open for viewing.

So basically, what only left are:

1. To receive another curtain as current curtain is actually shorts after the folding. LOL. So I bought another 2 blackout curtain for my living room.

2. To receive my TV, I bought a smart TV for the house.

3. To hang the kitchen’s curtain. I already have it, just that I forgot to bring plier and scissor for cutting and adjusting the wire.

4. To hang bathroom mirror and bathroom rack. I need to bring along the strong double sided tape, I guess I just use double sided tape for the rack. πŸ˜ƒ

5. To dismantle and install the water heater. I already bought 2units, just need plumber to install. I already book plumber to do such things πŸ˜€

So, check these out the differences before I took over and after I took over the house πŸ˜ƒπŸ₯°πŸ˜ƒ

When I’m viewing the house before my tenant move out.
This was after I cleaning up the house and make a lil changes.
This will be the final, only the Smart TV left to put on the TV cabinet.

Check out the kitchen…

This was before when I viewing the house and my tenant still living in.
After my tenant move out and I clean up the kitchen.
This was the final after I do a total cleanup in n out the kitchen cabinet and buy some carpets for kitchen.
I love as clean as this..πŸ₯°β€πŸ₯°

Now, let’s see the dining area…πŸ₯°

This was before the tenant move out.
This was after the cleaning up,, I rearranged n buy some stuff for the dining area.

Let’s check out rooms, the house has 3rooms and 2bathrooms.

The masterbedroom during the tenancy.
The master bedroom after cleaning up, painted furnitures and bought mattress cover & some matched curtains .
This was the middle room, where the tenant make it as a store room. A lot of clean up done for this room.
This was the current view. Perhaps it need some rearrange, but not sure yet. I just bought the mattress cover and curtain for this room.
This was the smallest room. Originally I made it as my wardrobe room and clothes organization room. So, my tenant just continue it, kinda have a lot of stuff during my visit that day.
So I do a clean up and bought curtain. nothing much I did for this room. Just a cleaning.

So, most of the thing I did was, a massive clean up, throwing unnecessary stuff and do a lot of painting. I did paint the furniture such as TV cabinet, coffee table, make up table, mirror frame, TV rack, the dryer outside as well πŸ˜ƒ

Some other things I snap photo before I went back home, last Saturday πŸ˜ƒπŸ₯°πŸ˜ƒ

I still need 2 more curtains..lol
The shoe rack, I don’t buy expensive shoe rack. I just re-paint the original brown wooden color with black and light grey color. I just buy the spray paint, make my life easier..LOL
Tadaa ❀❀❀

Okay, I will snap some photos later, after the rest pending things complete.

see yaa!! To be continued..

Re-use!!! Turn Extra Bar Chair’s leg into Aesthetic Wall Frame

Hello everyone!! Happy Awal Muharram to all Muslims out there. πŸ€—

Yesterday, I installed my new Bar Chair as I’m buying some little things for my 1st home. My tenant for past 7 years has moved out from the house. They said, they had been transferred to their hometown in Kedah. So, last Friday was the last day and they handed over the key to me.

I think it’s not a right time to sell the house yet, so I’m gonna rent it out with higher rental fee due to raises in OPR for the house loan. I did some calculation, to include all hidden charges like taxes, and maintenance, so I’m gonna have positive cash flow and not suffer later.

I will post out the make over for the house in next topic, supposely to go by today to measure the curtain and paint the furniture, but I fell sick and having terrible fever. Maybe in upcoming Saturday, if no plans.

So, this is the Bar Chair, and I really don’t know what the extra wood for.
Some extra wood
Tadaaaa…I have my existing craft stuffs, jute, ribbon, burlap etc
This is the wood. it looks white coz the covered it with plastic. I really dunno why. hahaha. So, when I opened the plastic, it looks like this.
I have random jute
some place ribbon n jute ribbon, I guess the name was πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
Fake pearl for decoration.
Just newly bought this at RM 2.40 @ecoshop.

In the making of Aesthetic Wall Frame πŸ˜ƒπŸ₯°

1. First, we need to do the tassle. It’s super easy. Just wrap your finger multiple times, I did here using 3middle fingers with 10 loops.
2. After done, put a pencil like this, and tie the tassle. Make sure it won’t open. I did glue the tassle, so it will keep in the place.
3. Then, I’m testing out using which ribbon/jute for the frame. Nah, it’s not nice using same color and pattern for the rope.
4. So, I’m ended up using the ribbon, with different colors (brown and cream) πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ
5. I glued all the ribbon onto the wood, and measure it accordingly so all gonna look symmetry for both side.
6. Tada!!! this is the final product. I’m gonna print out some quotes and glued it here. In my house, I have most quotes rather than photos. hahahaha. I cant wait to go and do some touch up on the interior.

So, that’s all my mini diy project for now. I can’t wait to do the make over for the house and rearrange everything. I’m budgeting everything to be rm3k, including water heater, ac, TV, curtain etc.

Till then, see you!! 😘

Refurbish My Organizer

Hello Everyone! How are you? Hope you are sounds and safe. Covid 19 cases has increased in my country, so stay safe guys!

In this post, Im gonna share with you how I refurbish my organizer..check this out πŸ˜‰

Last time, I had bought undergarment organizer. But, it doesn’t work on it purposes. So, I thought to check out to see what’s the cause and why it doesn’t serve it purpose as organizer.

So, here you go. This undergarment organizer I bought it online, but as you can see, it’s all smashed and not stand still. πŸ˜•

I rethink over and over again and remembered…hey!! I got some extra Burlap, Ribbon and variety sizes of Jute Rope πŸ˜ƒ

Multiple sizes of Jute Rope I have. I bought for it DIY purposes, keep it for recycle, redesign, reuse items. Its time to use it now πŸ₯°

Things you will need to have, to refurbish your organizer:

  • Glue gun with the refills
  • Jute Rope
  • Burlap
  • Ribbon
  • Scissor

So, I do take a closer look on it. The reason is, the base is not attaching makes it not a strong enough to stand still. So, I’m modifying it according to my own taste. Ha ha ha πŸ˜ƒ

Firstly, I started glue the base to strengthen it. Glue gun was my best buddy in everything diy stuff I made πŸ₯°

A weak base, is not attaching πŸ˜•
So, the base needs to be glued with glue gun.
Tada!!! This is my best buddy πŸ₯°
Arghhh…it looks hideous!! So I need to cover it up, to beautify it 😍πŸ₯°
I cut the Burlap, according to the size. Then glue it on the net, to cover up the hideous looks πŸ˜ƒ
When completed the Burlap, I glue on top with Ribbon I have. In this pic, there is A gap between those Burlap. So, I just cover it up with cute Ribbon ❀πŸ₯°
This will be the final product. Tadaaa!!~

That’s all for now. I still have another pending project, which is Coins Container πŸ₯°

Till then, to be Continue…

Making a simple brownies πŸ˜˜

Hi everyone!! It’s been awhile I’m not baking. I had bought these brownies and chocolate bar for quite some time, just that I don’t have time to bake it.

Cooking chocolate, Brownies Mix and Cupcake πŸ˜ƒ
If you bought the ready made mix, it has the instruction at the back. I don’t want to buy any unwanted extra flour. So i bought this. Simple and easy. πŸ˜‚

How to make a simple brownies, but tasty πŸ₯°

1. Firstly, you pour all the mix into 1 BIG bowl like this. As u read the instruction, it need 85ml water, 50ml vegie oil and 1 egg. Just pour everything, then mix with spatula.
2. When u mix, make sure no lump. I don’t like any lump in my cakes/brownies, so I make it smooth possible. Not to use any electric machine, just use spatula and stir it with your hand. Simple and easy to clean πŸ˜ƒ
3. Chunk the chocolate bar. I don’t like sweet brownies, so i bought Dark Chocolate. If you likr sweet brownies, you can use the normal Milk Chocolate according to your taste bud πŸ˜‡
4. First layer, I pour the mix batter. Then I put the chocolate chunk like this on top. After that, I layer again with the mix batter.
5. So, it will looks something like this. Picture before heat it with 180 degree celsius, and about 23 minutes.
6. You will know your brownies are ready when the top is crack like this. The box instruction was to stick fork in it. If it’s not stick to the fork, so it’s ready. I just don’t, coz it will look hideous on my brownies πŸ˜‚ when i feel light, and just nice plus top is crack and dry, I stopped it.
7. Tadaaaa~~ its yummy!! πŸ₯° Top and bottom dry, and moist in between ❀

Okay, that’s all for today

My wardrobe cleanup πŸ˜˜

Hi everyone! It’s weekend! Time to enjoy ourself and reward our soul.

I just wanna share some cool items that I bought, helped me in saving my electric consume for my wardrobe. I bought 4 sensor LED magnetic light for my wardrobe. It will turn on when detected movement, and off when no movement. It helps me in finding my things/cloths well, rechargeable and portable LED lights. πŸ₯°

It’s quite long LED light
It comes with magnetic pad, which already have adhesive sticker at the back. I just need to peel it and stick anywhere I want. So easy installation πŸ˜ƒ
At the back of the light has another magnetic pad that already been sticked. I think the magenetic pad is a good item to buy separately and experiment with other stuff, especially for kitchen storage. I will explore it with other things as well, to make room/house more sleek look πŸ₯°
The DC port, and it has option auto-as for auto-on when it sense some movement, auto-off when no movement; and I can turn it on always or off. It has options what I need.
Tadaaa..yess..im bad in installing stuff. I just stick it for a practical practice without thinking its nice to look or not πŸ˜„
How it basically looks like….i still need a lot to declutter…idk how long it will goes..coz its been going for about 3years to declutter my wardrobe. I’m taking it out, slowly and follow my own timeframe πŸ˜‚
How it looks like at the other side πŸ₯°

Okay everyone…idk when I’m gonna install my RGB LED for my whole room. I’m still looking for a better idea on that.

Till then….to be continue….

Mating or Meeting? πŸ€”

Hello everyone!! How are you doing?

I hope you are all good and safe.

Just want to share with you, I had bought females Betta fish for my existing male Betta fish.

Somehow, they are still wondering what is happening. Are they knowing each other or they were in meeting discussing on who going to be 1st, 2nd and 3rd? πŸ˜ƒ

I don’t know yet, my goal is that all my Betta fishes can get along well together (doesn’t matter male or female), so that I will only have 1 tank to minimize my aquascape πŸ˜ƒ

I’m wishing….wish me all the best, guys πŸ™ƒ

Are they mating or meeting?? πŸ˜ƒ

I will update any news later…till then…to be continue..
