[Daily Life Tips] Have a handy bucket around the house

Posted:

Here are some tips to help you in your daily life.

The Polypropylene (PP) Bucket with Lid can be used in multiple ways – for soaking stubborn stains on clothes, washing undergarments, or as a laundry basket.

The wide-mouth bucket is designed in such a way that it provides ease of use. The PP bucket is small enough to fit into most sinks so water can be filled easily.

The inside has a scale marking by litre, which serve as a guide when putting detergent etc, while the handle is rounded so it doesn’t bite into your hand even when carrying water. When not in use, it acts as under-the-sink storage for small laundry items too.

[Daily Life Tips] Maintain bed cleanliness with a bed pad

Posted:

Here are some tips to help you in your daily life.

Humans are said to sweat about a glass of sweat while sleeping. As sweat consists of salt and sebum in its component, if it’s left in a damp condition, various bacteria may start to grow from where the sweat stains.

The bed pad is used by laying it on a mattress or bedding that is difficult to wash directly. By removing and washing the bed pad, the mattress and bedding can last longer, while the sleeping environment is kept hygienic.

MUJI’s bed pad can be put in the net and machine washed. The antibacterial polyester cotton bed pad is made by inserting an antibacterial material into the inner cotton, and comes with elastic bands to prevent it from shifting out of place.

[Daily Life Tips] Dry your laundry quickly and prevent odour

Posted:

Here are some tips to help you in your daily life.

Compared to hanging clothes outdoors in a well-ventilated area, drying clothes in the room tends to take longer. As a result, bacteria and germs may breed in wet laundry, and bad odour is likely to occur.

It is essential to dry the laundry quickly in order to prevent bad odour from lingering in the room. With the help of a circulator fan, it enhances the overall air circulation in a sultry atmosphere by keeping air flow in motion throughout the room, while also helping the laundry to dry faster. It is effective to circulate the airflow so that the moist air around the laundry is replaced.

[Daily Life Tips] Wear a shirt even when working from home

Here are some tips to help you in your daily life.

As you spend an extended time working from home, it is easy to just spend the whole day in your loungewear. However, dressing up can help switch the feeling from off to on.

If you want to feel good, take off your loungewear and put on your favourite shirt, even if you didn’t plan on going out. Instead of a business shirt, look for an outfit like a washed shirt that doesn’t have to be ironed.

[Daily Life Tips] Do not rub wet hair

Posted: 14 Apr, 2020

Here are some tips to help you in your daily life.

Washing and drying wet hair is a routine repeated daily. However, wet hair is vulnerable to friction, so drying it by rubbing against the towel will damage it. On the other hand, when the hair dryer is also applied to the hair for a long time, the heat may damage the hair.

If you want to remove some moisture from the hair while in the bathroom, wrap a towel around the head to absorb the moisture from the roots and scalp of the hair.

Then, when the moisture around the scalp has been absorbed, put your hair between the towel and press it down to absorb the moisture, starting from the root to the tip of the hair, sliding it little by little.

When drying your hair, don’t rush and be gentle. A fluffy towel keeps your hair beautiful and healthy, taking care of it every day.

[Daily Life Tips] Bonding as a family with Arts & Crafts for kids

Posted: 14 Apr, 2020

Here are some tips to help you in your daily life.

With the increased time spent at home, curious kids tend to get tired of staying in their rooms. Let’s think of a way for the children to enjoy their time so that they can be engaged without getting bored.

For example, with a simple craft kit for children to colour and cut with scissors, they can create their own one-of-a-kind craft work in the world. Creator duo “Miya Uni”, a former MUJI Japan staff member who is currently working as a picture book writer has prepared a craft coloring page for children that can be freely downloaded.

We hope that adults can help with difficult tasks for children and spend an irreplaceable “family time” at home.

Posted: 7 Apr, 2020

Here are some tips to help you in your daily life.

Lunch boxes and water bottles are frequently used items to store food and drinks, and you’ll want to keep them clean to maintain good hygiene.

The rubber sealer, which is indispensable to keep your food and drinks warm or cool should be removed and washed as much as possible. Using the right tools, such as a small brush, you can wash the edges and grooves easily. For items such as water bottles what are easily left unwashed at the bottom and corners, using a brush with a long handle and an angled design will allow you to reach difficult corners for a thorough cleaning.

[Daily Life Tips] Carefully preserved homemade flavours

Posted: 6 Apr, 2020

Here are some tips to help you in your daily life.

When you have a lot of seasonal ingredients, or when you feel like you can’t afford to finish eating it, one method to prolong the shelf life of the ingredients is by making preserved food using a sealed glass storage jar.

With the transparency of the glass, you can observe the changes of the ingredients as the tastiness grows over time. Select the capacity according to the amount of ingredients to make preserved pickles, fruit vinegar, fruit liquor, oil pickles, and others. Before using the glass container, remember to sterilize with hot water or disinfecting with alcohol.
