CREATE A TRUE HANDMADE SPACE
Home is undoubtedly your most personal space. It is the space where we spend most of our time, create and share intimate memories, and discover ourselves. Customizing it while adding that personal and non-transferable essence is more than an aesthetic matter. It is a human need. Our home should also reflect our true personality.
We can imagine our house as a blank canvas, waiting to be filled with life, colors, and moments that, in synergy, create what we call "home." But, we can also craft an actual DIY handmade space that reflects our tastes and values through paints, varnishes, and furniture.
1 PAINT, 1000 POSSIBILITIES
In its opaque or translucent variant, our chalk paint allows us to transform furniture into anything you can imagine. It is more than just paint, as it offers over 1000 possibilities. Its incredible versatility makes any piece of furniture come to life through customization. It also allows us to experience HANNUN's artisanal process with our own hands. There is no greater satisfaction than crafting your own handmade space!
Thanks to a palette in eight unique shades, our LIFE IN DIY chalk paint has "superpowers" (really!). It is a 100% vegan water-based furniture paint with a low VOC index. It is washable and scratch-resistant, dries fast, and adheres easily. It also has the EN71 certification that guarantees its safe use on children's furniture.
VARNISH, ALWAYS ECO-FRIENDLY
Varnish embellishes and uniquely restores the wood, protecting it from moisture or ultraviolet rays. Moreover, its specific formula includes eco-friendly components that respect your health and the planet: you can't ask for more!
The water varnish from our LIFE IN DIY collection will make your favorite furniture look radiant again, thanks to the five finishes available: walnut, desert, olive green, natural, and white. You can use a brush, roller, or paint gun to make its "superpowers" come to light. In fact, the LIFE IN DIY varnish is a 100% vegan water varnish with a low VOC index and Ecolabel A+ certification. It dries fast and adheres easily. It also has the EN71 certification that guarantees its safe use on children's furniture.
MORE PREMIUM TOOLS
If you want to customize and restore every corner of your home, you will need adequate tools to help you do it like a real professional. Because yes, the quality of the tools matters! Roller sets and brushes are the classics that will make you achieve enviably beautiful results with your paints and water varnishes.
In addition to facilitating the application of your favorite paint or varnish, they will make the result look way more homogeneous and defined on the wood surface. In the case of brushes, the materials' quality is more important than ever, as it will make the customization process easy and efficient. Vegan and reusable brushes are the latest trends in terms of DIY. You can wash and use them infinitely!!
YOUR FAVORITE PIECE OF FURNITURE, AU NATUREL
"Wood in its natural state is primal, a wild force that connects us directly with nature." Suppose you have already fallen in love with one of our most beloved pieces of furniture. In that case, you will know that nature is present in everything we do. The Makemba shelf (our very first style!), the Triangle shelf, the Amarie mirror, the Nala nightstand... Our top furniture is characterized by a minimalist design and materials such as sustainable wood with FSA and PEFA certifications. Very natural.
The DIY finish––exclusive to the LIFE IN DIY collection––offers the pieces you like in natural wood so you can customize them with our varnishes and paints. For example, do you want to paint a Makemba in Olive Green so it is more colorful than ever? We would love to see the result! And... Would you like to varnish it in Walnut shade to create a distinctly elegant piece? We would love to see that as well!
OUR TOP TIPS
If you want to become a top professional at DIY furniture customization and restoration, our Hannun-tips can help you.
- Shake? Always! Shake your HANNUN chalk paints and varnish before use to get the most professional results.
- Your perfect finish. Customize the final look of your piece by applying various layers. You decide! We recommend applying one layer, but you can apply up to 3 for a more opaque result.
- Waiting is important. Follow the drying time recommendations between layer and layer to transform your home into real homemade space.
- Water, and nothing else. Thanks to our paints and varnish's water-based, natural composition, you will only need water to clean your tools.
And you, Hannuner… do you dare to do it yourself?
