March Events @ Square Peg

A couple Sundays in March at Square Peg Artery & Salvage I'll be teaching workshops. Pre-reginstration is required.

Paper Upcycling
In this workshop we will play with new ways to be green. Create easy accordion style journals, envelopes, magnets, stickers and paper beads.
No previous experience required. Materials will be included, but, if you like, bring your own maps, funky fabulous paper, old love letters, menus, food magazines to upcycle and your favorite pair of scissors.

From Jeans to Jewelry - Fiber Upcycling
Everyone has a few pairs of jeans that just don’t fit right… or a sweater you stuck in the dryer by mistake…or a t-shirt from some promotional event that you wouldn't even wear to the gym... What can you do with them? Make them into jewelry!

In this workshops we will give old clothes a second life by make rolled fabric beads from felted
sweaters, t-shirts, and old jeans to use in jewelry pieces. You will leave with at least a completed pair of earrings and skills to make a variety of other items using this simple technique.

No previous skills are required. All materials are provided.
