The Upcycle Workshops @ Mew Gallery

I'm looking forward to the crafty workshops at Mew this month. May is focused on upcycling, and if these go well I hope to do some basic knitting and crochet workshops in June. I'm busy making kits that every person attending the workshop will go home with. There are still spaces available. See below for details.


Tuesday Night *Upcycle* Workshop Series

Workshop #1 Paper
May 12th from 6pm to 8pm
(get $5 off if you register for this one by Wed. May 6th)

Overwhelmed by Junkmail? Learn how to turn it into one of a kind journals and stationary! Upcycle all that extra paper in your life and learn how to create super easy journals, envelopes, magnets and stickers from maps, menus, and magazines.

Workshop #2 From Jeans to Jewelry
May 26th from 6pm to 8pm

It seems like everyone has a few pairs of jeans that just don’t fit right… or they have the whole sandblasted butt, low-rise thing you can’t rock anymore…or they’re just so worn they’re un-wearable… What can you do with them? Make them into jewelry! Miss Koco will show you how to give your old denim new life.

$30 per workshop
*includes all materials and light refreshments

Space is limited. Pre-registration is required no later than the
Friday before each class: 215-625-2424 or mewgallery@yahoo.com
