Hye Everyone 😇 Happy Friyay, guys! Hope you are all in great vibes. 🥰
Today, Im gonna share how I combined both my hobbies into something new makeover. Hahahaha!!! Yes!! I’M DECLUTTERING WHILE MAKING DO IT YOURSELF PROJECT DECORATION!! 😆
Okay, first thing first, I need to get rid/declutter my previous business items like ribbon, sponge, burlap etc right. So, I was thinking. My dustbin is so dull, and it always flew away whenever there are heavy thrash inside because the dustbin is too light in weight.
So, I decided to make some DIY Project, to decorate my dustbin. Yay!!! 🥰
My Dustbin before the decoration 😕
All You Need to Have….
These are the items needed, plus Jute rope and emptybox. Missing in the photo 😌Tadaaa!!! After the decoration 😇
Let’s Do It! 🥰❤🥰
1. First of all, trace the bottom Dustbin onto the empty box like below picture 👇
2. Then, cut the lines. Glue the circle box with Burlap, and keep the Burlap 1 inch around the circle box to glue later.
3. Put the Jute rope onto the circle box and glued with glue gun. Then turn circle the jute rope and repeating the process until finished.
4. Glue the circle box onto the bottom of the Dustbin. Then, continue turn circle the jute until finished.
5. When the jute finished, I continue by taking out jute from bigger size. Hahaha..just using whatever I have 😉
6. Then, I glued the Burlap and Jute with Glue Gun. Kinda much I needed for the Glue Gun.
7. Then, I take out and open my new sponge for the ruffle. Haha 😃
8. For ribbon, I just simply cut n paste with Glue Gun. You can fold nicely, but I like easiest way and look neat 😃😜. Check this out 👇
9. After cut, paste, cut, paste and cut paste, the final product will be…..TaaaaDaaa 👇!! 🥰
Good afternoon everyone!! Its Thursday, guys!! 1 day to goo…before we meet weekend again!! Weehooo!!! 🥰
Well, I just want to share with you what are my hobbies as a minimalist, to feel content and keep clutters away in a better way. ❤
So, here we go…😉
1. Making A DIY project.
As I being a minimalist, my characters are slowly change. I spend most of my time sitting home, and maintaining my things at home. One of my fav things to do is, to redesign, and reuse existing things I have. I have Burlap, Ribbons, Wrapping papers, Sponges etc at home, from my previous business plan. Why am I buying these stuff? Well, I thought when pandemic happened, I will loose my job. However, it turn out that I got more job offers. Alhamdulillah 🥰, so I have never starts my business. So, here all are the stuff,s that I need to get rid by making a D.I.Y stuff ❤🥰❤

2. Strolling the park.
Another what I like to do is strolling the park. I love nature so much, especially forest. It calms me when I have anxiety or problems. To go forest alone, is very risky. So, I choose to stroll the park whichever has little/mini forest nearby 🥰
I climbed up 3rd floor of the watch tower. Its so relaxing. Next time, Im gonna bring hot tea/black coffee with me 😃
3. Explore new recipe in kitchen.
I love exploring new recipes on internet. First trial, I will try the original recipes, then for 2nd and 3rd trial I will modify the recipes, and jot it down all the modification I made. 🥰 i love creating my very own recipes according to my own taste bud. ❤
I cut the dumpling’s skin into half, coz its too big. I cut into small bite sizes 😃🥰
4. Decluttering own room/space.
Well, this is like a ‘ritual routine’ for me 😅. Most of time, I will take a plastic bag and walk around the room, stand by if I can throw anything into it 😂. Clearing out my wardrobe, my workspace, my bathroom etc..and Im really enjoying it. I enjoy clearing my room, clean and tidy my space area 🥰.
Make up my bed every morning is my mandatory ‘ritual routine’ 😂
5. Sell off unwanted items.
Yes!!! This is sooo cool. Previously, I just throw every of my unwanted items. But now, thanks to my Mr Love, he suggested to sell it off. Since I started, I think in end october or early november, I made around RM250 of my unwanted items and plus ++ I cleared my space. Weeee!!!!~~ Its fabulous 🥰🥰🥰
Someone gonna pick these from my room. I have 3 aquarium 😂 another one to let it go..🥰
Okay guys, I think thats all for now. Im sharing with you what I usually do to declutter my things, and keep myself content ❤🥰
Hey everybody! Good morning! How are you doing?? Hope you are happy and blessed with your family and friends.
It’s been a lot of things running through my mind lately. A lot of things need to sort and plan. I didn’t know where to start. So, I went for a long walk to chill and relax.
Last Saturday, I went to Taman Tasik Metropolitan, Kepong. Previously, the name waa Taman Layang-Layang. They do some renovation and change the name, perhaps to make it sounds more commercialised? 😃
So here we go…check these out some photos that I managed to snap 😀
It looks like photo frame right…nice 😃Previously, they don’t have this..they just built it now..Okay, you can actually rent bicycle here. They have variety of bicycles to choose. 😉Some view from the back of the lake…it was really a huge lake to chill 🥰Some water fountain and sunshine…I love the ambience 🥰There is one steep hills to climb up…And on top of the hills, got 2 of watch towers…I’d found a quiet place to chill…next time I will bring tea or black coffee to chill..🥰The other point of view…Thinking to draft plans, but end up just chilling..heheStairs that you need to climb up..
Okay, after went for a long morning walk, I went to the mall, named Melawati Mall. Having Thailand cuisine for my lunch. The restaurant is Boat Noodles ❤
These are stack noodles. There is not much inside the bowl – Small portion. I ordered 6, I guess next time just to order 4, plus the dessert. They have nice steam bread with kaya sauce. Next time, Im gonna order those.My fav if I come here..Thailand Matcha Tea
Then, I went home. This is so called my ‘me time’. 🥰
Hello everyone!! Good Friday! How are you doing? Hope everyone in a good health 😊
Today, I’m gonna start a serious health food intake. Seems, there are few years to go, to enter 40s, I started feel conscious about what am I eating. Let’s check below list, on the initial habits that we need to look into.
5 habits to start healthy lifestyle in 2022
1. Drink a lot of plain water
It is very, very important to drink a lot of plain water. It helps our body to remove excess waste. This also keeps our body from dehydrated.
How to start: Buy a cute big bottle that you love, and bring it along to office, exercise, shopping or whenever you go. Make it a habit to bring water bottle everywhere you go. If you are too lazy or shy to bring a big bottle, you can bring flask to office. Im using hot flask to put any kind of drinks, my hot/cold water, tea etc. So, no one knows whats inside. But, you will need to keep on fill-in the water about 3-4 times, daily 😅
My multipurpose flask water 🤭
2. Starts walking instead of driving
Keep your body moving, any kind of movement either dancing, walking, jogging. This is some sort of exercise too.
How to start: When you go to office, try to walk instead of driving a car. If you have public transport to your office, use public transport. Like me, I have an option either to drive or to use public transport. I choose to use public transport. Try to download steps apps, and you will be surprise how much you had to walk daily to/from office. Its been once, I walked 1 round at the huge lake nearby to my house, it turn out the steps not exceeded the daily steps i took to the office 😂 it seems i walk daily to office, more than 1 huge lake. 😃
3. Eat a clean food and right portion
Okay, this is very tough. Sometimes, you just don’t have much time to cook n prep meal, and sometimes you just not in the mood to cook. The rule is simple, you just need to eat quarter vegie, quarter fruits, quarter for meats and quarter carbs.
Source: Google
How to start: Eat varieties but in right portion. Like me, I don’t have much time to cook daily, so sometimes I just bring Quinoa to my office and buy chicken, vegie at the nearby food truck. Before eat, you will need to know what available food categories. They consists of Protein, Carbohydrate, Fibers, Fats dan Dairy. For dairy consumption, you will need to check yourself if you are a type that can eat dairy product or can’t. For me, I can eat it but I will gain more weight with dairy products 😀 You need to understand your own body first before plan out your meal. It took try and error method for me, as I’m not a doctor 😃 If you have option to check with dietitian, that will be the best.
Back to my stories, yes I bring Quinoa to office, and buy chicken/fish, vegie and fruits at the nearby food truck. Sometimes, i just bought Sandwiches that already have fish, bread and vegie. Easiest and fastest 😂😅

4. Slot some outdoor activities
This a bit tough to do, as Im still working 9-6 for the whole weekdays in office, and get easily tired during weekend.
How to start: I keep 1 day of weekend to rest and the other 1 day out. The resting day, normally I will do laundry, clean up room, bed etc as long as its indoor. For another day outdoor activities like, washing car, morning walk and soon I will slot time for hiking. Yay!! Its been awhile Im not hiking, probably in November Im gonna start back my hiking hobby with my bestie 🥰
5. Stock more fruits and vegetable
Yes, just in case if you keep on feeling hungry, stock with lots of vegetables and fruits, and don’t forget nuts too. Nuts are some sort of good fat such as almond, walnut, sunflower seed etc.
How to start: Buy a pack of mixed nuts and dried fruits, and pack into small container and bring it to office. I will update my snack stack container soon..❤
HeLL-oOooooOoooo everybody!!! How R yoOoouuu?? HoOoopeee everyone sounds and safe. 😘
Okay, today topic…is…let’s virtually design the minimalist house, virtually!! Hahaha..yes. Virtually, coz it’s seems loOooong way to goOoooOooo for my 2nd home to be completed, target to be complete by 2nd half of 2025 🥺
Let’s check this out….all these furniture I search by using actual shopping platform that available in Malaysia 😃🥰❤
The entrance
Entrance should be, as simple as possible and have multiple functions on each items.
The key holder. I want a simple holder like this, where I can hang keys and have some little space to put things. The shoe bench, where I can store my shoes, and socks under the seat. It has a seat on top, where I can sit and wear my socks and shoes.The console table and room divider on the same furniture. Okay, my console table will be as simple as this, where I can put 1 bowl, or tray to keep my wallet from going outside. At same time, can be a divider between the entrance and living room. Giving lil privacy to the living room 🥰
The Living Room
I will keep it as simple as possible, as my house will be small…
A long sofa, either 3 or 4 seaters, and leather materials as its easy to wash n maintain, plus not easily to get smell 😃A lazy chair, where I can relax, which kinda match with my main sofa…The TV, speaker and cabinet. I will have a simple cabinet, but yet elegant which match with the dining storage later. Mounted TV and some simple speaker will be great.A very simple carpet, I dont like too many design n colors which will make me vomit.A simple wall decoration…hanging in middle of the living room..Irregular coffee table…😃And some simple side table, where there is a storage that I can keep my throws and blankets 🥰
The Dining Room
A very simple dining room too…😘
Okay, I dont need a very big dining room. A simple dining table of four like this, which gimme flexibility to seat on, either normal chair, or bench like this..Okay, on the table, I would love to keep salt and pepper like this kind of shapes. Simple and elegant shapes. Under the dining table set, I will have this bamboo carpet. I can’t step on cool floor, so I will love it to have some kind of carpet to feel cozy 🙂Okay, I will have my coffee machine on top of this kind of storage table. I like it to be thin, and yet have some storage where I can keep my toaster, my blender or fruit juice machine. This storage will be located against the wall near to my dining table.On top of the dining storage cabinet, I will have a big mirror like this, to give “some space” for the small apartment 😃A lovely coffee machine 😍 I definitely will need this. I dont really like the normal powder coffee, I love the fresh grinded coffee. Coffee lover in the house ❤
The Kitchen
For kitchen, a simple kitchen cabinet, without handles. Handles can trap dust, so the handle-less cabinet will be a furrrpecct match for me.
Steel cutting board. I used to love wooden cutting board, but after I saw how mould it can be from my mom’s house, I don’t want it now 😂😅 This can function for flour kneading too..A sink, where I can have multiple function. Can use to wash vegetables and fruits like this.Induction stove, as I think Im a person who can easily set a fire at home. Haha. Plus, most of my pot will be a cute pot, which will get burn easily the bottom if i use normal stove with fire. LolOf course, a carpet every space in the house. I can’t have a sticky floor 😃Okay, the bin. I will have covered bin something like this. Not too big, and not too small where I can throw it on a daily basis.
The bedroom
For bedroom, I will love to have some space on the wall where can act as my side table. I need to minimize the furniture and design it smartly, as my bedroom will be very small 😂
A smart wall which act as my side table, and as my bed’s header too. I will keep my clock alarm here 😃My bed’s frame will be really simple like this, but not my mattress, pillow and duvet. Hahaha..those fabric need to be chosen very carefully, need to be very comfortable and nice to see 😃 I will have separate post for those fabrics. LolOkay, I don’t really like bed’s header, coz it doesn’t serve any kind of purpose. I just need, some space of the wall, to put my alarm and this kind of pillow as my bed’s header. 😃😃😃Last, but not least…my wardrobe which has function as a big mirror as well. So, i don’t need any other space for my full body mirror.Against the masterbedroom’s big window, I will have this bench where I can sit on top, and have some storage underneath 🥰Okay, another an unusual things i would love to have in my room is, the fireplace simulation. It can be my sleeping light and perhaps I could find some item which has function as my humidifer as well. Its a good idea, but let’s see if this is also a humidifer or not. If yes, then its a great buy which serve 2 functions at once. 😃
The bathroom
I really love big mirrors. So, in the bathroom I will find this kind of furniture. It can be mirror, storage and can hang face towel as well. 🥰Shower…shower…shower….i really love shower, compared to bath tub. Bath tub is good, but not all the time. Shower is on the go, and kinda like a rain for me. A big showet head is awesome, and of course with water heater. I like it to be black and matte, as the normal silver can easily rusted.The shower floor, I will love to have wooden floor like this, so it won’t be that slippery.
Okay, that’s all for now…other things like mattress, pillow, throw, lamp nights, swicthes, curtain etc not cover in this post. I’m gonna have a separate topics on that 😃😀🙂
Hi everyone! Good Friday, everyone! How are you, guys? Hope you are all well and sound.
We are entering October in 2022 now, just 3 months left before we enter 2023. How are you feeling about it? Feeling Excited? Nervous? Happy? Or Sad? Well…well…well..let’s check ourselves goals, either is it has been achieved? Or not yet to achieve? Or Partially achieve?
Well, I have “unlock” some items in 2022. Alhamdulillah. Just, to loose weight goal is still pending. Hahahahaha 😂
Looking back at my post in October 2021 with title “It’s Time to Plan Out for 2022 🥳”, I have achieved some of the things. Weehuu!! 🥳🥳🥳
1. 100% Financial Freedom
Okay, I almost have Financial Freedom, but unfortunately my credit card pile up again. It seems impossible to live without credit card these days because everything goes cashless. I tried to open up a better account for this purpose in 2023, to replace credit card and use more debit card.
First thing, is to settle off the credit card. Secondly, to open an account with debit card about 10k. Then, after that only will have savings in other investment account. Let’s see, this was my plan to get rid of credit card as I want to be free from giving extra money to banks. LOL
2. Positive working environment
Alhamdulillah, I have found a very good company to work with positive people around, and I can built my career. Thank you for Almighty Allah SWT for this opportunity. 🥰❤😘
3. Minimizing wardrobe
Alhamdulillah, I had finalized my wardrobe cleanup and keep only necessary clothes. I still keep my other clothes, but in the box. When I got time, I wanna take picture and sell it off. The money received, I will pay off Credit Card, and if got some extra, I will save in my Debit Card accounts.
4. Healthy lifestyle
Hurmm, this kinda tough as I live with my family. Hahahaha, it will be easy if I live alone, but I try to stay and keep a healthy lifestyle. Next month, November, I try to slot in hiking activities back into my schedule. Wohooo!!! I can’t wait for it..🥳
5. Additional goal for 2023: To achieve weight goal 55kgs.
I’m adding another one……To achieve goal weight 55kg. 😂 sounds impossible, but determination kills all impossibilities. 😀
Frankly speaking, I hate most of cardio exercises. Its really a boring exercise for me. I love lift weight so much. But hey, I need to keep it aside first..perhaps to focus on bodycombat more for now, at least. 😃
6. Additional achievement in 2022 😃
Hey, guess what? I met my true soulmate. Haha. Let’s see how things going on..😜
Okay, thats all for now…enjoy this view…..its about to start work!! Let’s work hard and smartly, don’t work hard and blindly, Guys!! Cheers!! ❤
Hye, so last week I went to Genting Highland. Didn’t go for cable car, just chilling and relaxing 🥳
The entrance
Well, last time when I went there before the pandemic, it was an old resort (not well maintained). However, when I went there last week, I can see some changes and differences, and there were also some on going renovation in progress. I think it’s pretty nice, open concept resorts. Check this out..
The lobby…Kiosk..Im not sure what was this, something like glass house? Its still in progress..The elevators..It looks like hydrophonic plants..still in progress..This is steamboat restaurant..
What I like about is…the cafe 😍
Okay, I think the rest pretty normal, just the cafe looks a bit luxury and chilling 😍
They have an open concept cafe, you can seat whenever you want. I love the music they played, it reminds me of the gym I used to go before. Check these out…
Open view, nearby the pool side..The drinks they offered 🥰Muffin a bit dry…but still fine..The view from inside of the cafe..there is bar outside, beside the pool. I like the concept, if you wanna feel cozy and warm cafe, you can seat inside. If you wanna have some fun, the bar is outside..its versatile concept.View from the cafe entrance..They have some machines…that you can play..The pool view at night..
Okay, enough with the lobby, cafe etc, we go to the room…Zoom In…
The hallway..pretty old school…but I think they will change it later..renew the look..
What I like bout this resort is that…it has nostalgia memories when me and my siblings were kids. We came here most of the weekend 🥰❤
There were 2 rooms…check these out…
1st room….master bedroom2nd room..twin bedroomLiving room…dining room and kitchenWashroom..
Breakfast at the balcony….
Okay, that’s pretty much about the resort..we enjoyed it 🥰
HeLLooOoo everyone!! What’s up? It’s finally here!! So called – My organizing “gadget”…haha..🥰
So, I bought 3 different sizes of Rattan Box storage, to keep my blankets and other stuffs like my hairband, hair clip, sleeping mask, detox patches etc.
Tadaa!!! Cute rattan storage in different sizes – S, M and L 🥰
The reason I don’t buy big basket for my blankets, is that because Im living in a small room – to keep virtual clutters away 😃
Oh, and another things, the grey storage is for my undergarments. I like it to be well organize, soothing in my eyes 😍
The other Organizing “Gadget” I have in my room 😃
1. The Square Storage Box (with zip on top and side) – for Towels and Bedsheets2. Medicine Kit – all first aid medicine including Covid-19 swab test 😃3. Make Up storage – unfortunately, I don’t have much make up. Mostly for my skin care serum, hair serum, backup Parfum, Massage Oil, body lotion, hand lotion, nail clipper, haircomb, contact lens casing etc 🥰4. Clothes Dust Cover – other than Virtual Clutters free, this cover helps to keep away the dust in wardrobe. Coz, I noticed there are dust at the bottom of the wardrobe and I need to clean it, weekly 🤪5. Parfum and pins storage – Okay, I have lot of parfums, but these 2 are the most often I used. Easily to pickup and put back, to minimizing the virtual clutters and as a deco too. 😃6. The humidifier essential oil – Okay, okay, parfum freak in the house..whoott whoot!! 😚 So, I have my fav flavours which I often used – Hotel version: Banyan Tree, Grand Hyatt, Westin, and Hilton and typical essential: Orchid and Lavendar flavour. I do have more such as peppermint, Oranges etc, but I keep it away in wardrobe to avoid virtual clutters. ☺7. From the back, Hotel version : Hilton hotel, Westin hotel, Grand Hyatt hotel, Banyan Tree hotel. Orchid. From the front: Lavendar.
Crystal Collections: To Re-Use?
Okay, Im pretty okay for the rest, there is only something I don’t find the purpose to be displayed on my table – My Crystal Collections.
Well, I used to put some essential oil onto it, coz I thought to make it as a crystal diffuser. But it turn out, not so good compared to wood, plus my crystal out of shapes and colors 🥲
I’m thinking to re-use it for something better and useful, if you have any good idea, you can comment below, thanks 😉
It looks horrible in a cup..I think, some has changed color and shapes. I used to have emerald green color, but now its gone 😭
