Upcycling Workshop, AUG 5 - SUMMER WORKSHOPS

After a series of highly successful upcycling workshops with Kilkenny Libraries, I am now running an afternoon upcycling workshop at It's A Wrap Studio in Ferrybank, Waterford. Come along and learn how to turn fabrics into yarn, using things from your own wardrobe or even old sheets . Or, you can use the materials I bring along if you're not sure what to do.  Once you have the 'yarn', you can then crochet or knit bowls, baskets, bags, rugs etc etc. The sky's the limit with what you can create. Instead of stuff hanging about cluttering up your cupboards and wardrobes, you can make them into something useful and beautiful!  You'll never look at your old clothes in the same way again... See below some images of things people have made in my classes. Venue : It's A Wrap Studio , Ferrybank, Waterford Dates : August 5 Times : 1 - 5pm Cost : €39.00 includes tools and lots of materials ( you can bring your own as well) Made from...
