"Launched in 2005, Home-Dzine was created to realise a dream; to express my love of home DIY and decor and share with other South Africans. As a non-commercial website I am free to express my own opinions and pass on valuable information to readers.
I feel that more people can benefit by being able to DIY home improvement and home repairs. And we're not talking about major DIY home repairs, but those that anyone with a bit of DIY savvy can do themselves."
Tokreen craft
Tokreen is a glue, hardener and paint all in one that is perfect for restoring and preserving, or even for creating your own unique home decor accessories.
I first came across Tokreen in my local arts and crafts shop where I saw items that were made from basic items. After attending a class I was hooked. I use any item I can get my hands on.
Tokreen is a glue, hardener and paint all in one. I really like working with this and always trying to improvise and mix all that I know in to one piece of art.
I also like to do this as It makes it all worthwhile when I see my clients face and expressions, as they are totally overwhelmed and surprised as to what I did with the items they gave me. Just to think the same item could have been kept secret and hidden away in a box in the closet. And after I had my hands on it, it became an keepsake that could be treasure for life.
I enjoy restoring vintage items and preserving items to make them appear vintage - as shown above and below. Some of the items can't be bought any more or can be expensive to replace, so why throw it away if it can be restored. I also do baby clothing, shoes and toys and so on.
