recycle, relove, rewear
With a growing awareness of the waste inherent in the fashion industry, there is so much more emphasis on preloved and vintage clothing.
Recycle what someone no longer loves and make it into something you will love as we make a second-hand men’s shirt into a unique apron. Bring along your favourite jeans or denim jacket and delight in your self-expression as you mend and embellish with a few stitches, patches, or braid.
We will explore bleaching, eco-dyeing and overdyeing as techniques that you can use immediately. Slow stitch one garment or attempt to refashion a few items.
Develop your individual style with these one-off creative pieces that will become treasured in your wardrobe.
