🧥 WEARABLE ART WORKSHOP: CLOTHING UPCYCLING

Welcome to our sustainable wearable art workshop! This class is designed for absolute beginners or anyone interested in upcycling old items to help combat modern landfill issues. The goal is to breathe new life into a favourite old jacket that has seen better days, or transform a cheap second-hand shop find into an exciting, custom fashion statement.

I will guide you step-by-step through your creation, offering design suggestions, sewing advice, and structural options to help bring your vision to life!

· Duration: 3 hours (1:45 PM – 5:00 PM)

· Skill Level: Perfect for absolute beginners through to experienced crafters.

· The Fashion Parade: Sign up to show off your hard work! We invite you, your friends, and your family to join us in the church hall on Sunday morning at 9:30 AM for morning tea and a fun, casual 30-minute fashion parade celebrating your creations. This is optional pending on numbers interested.
