Hi, I’m Amiko. I’m blogging about my homemaking adventure and I enjoy sharing Japanese-inspired tips for keeping a home clean and tidy.
I live in a 92sqm HDB flat in Singapore with my husband, our young son, and a very nosy poodle. I enjoy finding ways to make the most of the limited space in our home by living practically and being mindful of excess and waste.
In this blog, you’ll discover:
- My homemaking adventure and Japanese-inspired methods for keeping a home clean and tidy.
- Insights on minimalism and mindful living with less clutter. If you are struggling with an excess of belongings and limited space, I have put together some guidance to help you address the challenge. Spoiler alert: reducing clutter is nearly always the solution.
- Reviews and recommendations of functional products I use in my home (mostly Japanese goods available in Singapore such as from MUJI, Daiso, Nitori, Don Don Donki, Tokyu Hands, etc.), along with DIY projects that enhance everyday life.
- Ideas for creating an environment at home that nurtures children’s development. As a mother, I am passionate about fostering independence in my child to help him develop resilience and a sense of responsibility from an early age.
- Numerous ways to lead an eco-conscious lifestyle: reduce, reuse, recycle, repeat!
This blog will be ideal for those who value practicality over excess and those who find beauty in the simplicity of Japanese products.
