Tjhoko Paint UAE

An important announcement —
After much thought and consideration, I’ve made the difficult decision to close down Tjhoko Paint UAE. It’s been such a wonderful journey filled with creativity, colour, and connection, and I’m truly grateful for everyone who has supported the brand and shared in this adventure with me. 💛

Please note — the social media pages will soon change name, but will continue to be a space for creativity, inspiration, and workshops of all kinds. 💫

Thank you all for your incredible support over the years — it truly means the world to me. 💕

𝗗𝗜𝗬 𝗖𝘂𝗽𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗧𝗷𝗵𝗼𝗸𝗼 𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁 This stunning cupboard transformation was completed by Tjhoko Paint Brand Ambassador, 𝙔𝙤𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙞 𝙑𝙖𝙣 𝘿𝙚 𝙑𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧 from DIY Projects By Yolandi With a few simple steps and some beautiful Tjhoko Paint colours, she turned an ordinary piece of furniture into a statement piece. Follow these clear, step-by-step instructions to achieve a similar look. 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽-𝗯𝘆-𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗚𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 : Remove the old handles and cover the mirror to protect it. Thoroughly clean the entire cupboard twice using lacquer thinners to ensure a smooth painting surface. 𝘼𝙙𝙙𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡 𝙎𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙖𝙜𝙚: Have two shelves made and inserted for extra packing space. 𝙋𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘿𝙧𝙖𝙬𝙚𝙧𝙨 : Paint the small drawers using Lebo’s Light. Once dry, use a stencil to add detail in the corners with Super Sonette. 𝘼𝙙𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙀𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 : Attach the decorative embellishments using a strong adhesive. Yolandi used "Sticks Like ..." to secure the heavy pieces. Paint the embellishments with Sherif’s Stone. 𝙒𝙖𝙭𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙖 𝘿𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙀𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙘𝙩 : Once the embellishments are dry, rub them with candle wax (or Vaseline) to create a resist effect for distressing later. 𝙋𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙪𝙥𝙗𝙤𝙖𝙧𝙙 : Apply Super Sonette to the entire cupboard and let it dry completely. 𝘿𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙀𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 : Once the paint is dry, gently rub the embellishments with steel wool to expose some of the darker paint underneath, giving them an aged look. 𝙁𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙏𝙤𝙪𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙨 : Seal the entire cupboard with Clear Glaze for durability. Finally, attach the new handles and keyhole covers to complete the transformation.

This two-drawer table needed a creative touch to become a functional and elegant secretary’s desk. Now, it proudly serves its purpose in a local guesthouse.

Tjhoko Paint Brand Ambassador 𝙃𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙖 𝙀𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙤𝙩 from Mēraki Furniture completed this project using a few clever additions and techniques:

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽-𝗯𝘆-𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀
𝙎𝙩𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙀𝙣𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 - Used two wooden blocks from a previous piece of furniture to create sturdy side supports for shelving. Added additional wood to form the top and middle shelves.

𝘿𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝘿𝙚𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙡𝙨 - Applied a raised stencil design with Tjhoko Stencil of Paris and gold detailing for a refined look.
Decoupaged the backing board with beautiful fabric, sealing it with clear glaze to enhance durability.

𝙋𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 & 𝙎𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 - Painted the entire piece in Tjhoko Paint’s Maestro, a timeless and elegant colour.
Sealed the entire surface with clear glaze for protection and longevity.
