Workshops run 11am and 2pm. Places limited to 10 people per workshop, so grab your tickets while you can!
Come along and learn how to create your very own 100% recycled plastic purse/wallet from surplus plastic bags. Through a specialised heating and layering technique you will learn from the team at Plastic Shed, Stockport, how to turn regular plastic bags into a unique statement piece. Similar to paper collaging, you can layer up the plastics to create almost anything; landscapes, patterns, phrases - The only limit is your imagination!
All participants will get to create their own purses or wallets, using waste plastic bags. Required materials will be provided, but you can bring your own, if you wish. Tools and all equipment will also be provided. We will be using a special press, but a technique using a domestic iron will also be demonstrated, which anyone can use to create their own items at home.
Suitable for all ages - children and families welcome!
