Hi there, have you self care today?
Welcome to our tiny cosy space! ikibean is all about the concept of ikigai, the Japanese concept of finding purpose and joy in everyday - a reason for being.
ikibean, our main character, is a hand-stitched soft plush baby with a tiny sprout or flower on its head and a smiling face. It reminds us to focus on personal growth and to take small steps towards self care, which are often overlooked in this hectic and stressful world.
In this cosy space, you can find items related to slow living and ikigai. They are designed and produced in small batches at our little home studio. For collaborations, please contact us. Also, join our mailing list below for updates on new releases!
