Win 20 Double Tickets to the Homemaker’s Expo 23 – 26 February

February 15, 2017 by heathers 17 Comments

 

 

 

 

 

Home is where the heart is. The place where you arrive, your dogs bark at you in greeting and you can finally relax after a hectic day.  So why not pay some attention to it and make the place you live in that much more special? The 2017 Johannesburg HOMEMAKERS Expo celebrates its 24th year with the theme “A Tribute to Your Home” and we are giving away some tickets to go there.

2017 sees the launch of the Blue Label Wing, a brand new and stirring exhibition space.  No more up and down the stairs to visit your favourite stands. Now the entire show is on one level.
 
 
I LOVE JOZI

Not just the inner heart of Jozi will be explored by her residents, but witness three South African graffiti artists make their artwork come to life.  Follow them as they complete the project at the show.

 BOOK NOOKS

If you like to get lost in a book or even browsing around a book store, then you will have a ball at Book Nooks, which is sponsored by Bargain Books.

There is a nook for each of six themes. Go ahead.

I’m wondering if they had some inspiration from Dr Seuss…

We took a look, we saw a nook, on his head, he had a hook, on his hook he had a book, on his book was ‘How To Cook’ but a Nook can’t read so a nook can’t cook SO what good to a nook is a hook cook book?”

Oh yes. They will have cookbooks as well.

Look out for great Book competitions and wins!

TAKE IT OUTSIDE

In South Africa we are spoiled with breath-taking landscapes and beautiful weather; love for the outdoors is second nature to us.  Take it Outside, a budding new addition to the show, embraces this love for our gardens, patio’s, outdoor furniture and of course new and interesting things to enhance your outdoor living area.

 BUILDERS DIY THEATRE & INTERACTIVE ZONE

Taking things to the next DIY level?  Find your inspiration at the theatre where DIY celebrities give you great advice and tips.  Move over to the Interactive Zone and workshop some of Fired Earth’s fantastic products.

 THE MARKET

 The Market brings together a tempting selection of gourmet treats, wine and locally produced delicacies. Everything you could possibly need to stock up your picnic basket.

THE WORKSHOP with FAMOUS DIY SOLUTIONS

LIKE KREG, TORK CRAFT, TRITON, FESTOOL AND SAWSTOP?
Are you a “toolaholic” …do words like circular saw, cordless drills, jigsaw blades, routing, chucks, grinders and sanders get you all excited?

Then make your way to the WORKSHOP and try out some of the best tools available to creatives, DIYer’s and homemakers.

Make sure you see the special demonstrations on the SawStop machine, a machine that not only offers versatility but is the safest table saw in the world. With its patented flesh detecting technology it insures that you are safe ALWAYS! Come and see this amazing machine in action.

 INDUSTRIAL DESIGN CHALLENGE

Hosted in collab with the University of Johannesburg and Festool.
The industrial designers base their designs around the challenge of designing a compact and easy to use household drill.  Come see how they showcase their ingenious ideas for a functional yet beautiful must-have powertool.

 LIVE BY DESIGN

We all love to be surrounded by beautiful things.  The Live by Design feature contains all those must-have items your home wants in a unique and inspiring space.
