About

Who doesn't have a stash of unworn and broken jewellery in their bottom drawer? Empty your jewellery drawers girls. It is time to transform your broken inherited and pre-loved jewels to create wearable jewellery or simply just make a one off statement piece! Thrift, revamping, reclaiming and recycling have become synonymous with craft in recent years. Reacting against the technological advances of the 21st century, ostentation is fading and bigger issues: sustainability, climate change, global poverty and ethical trading are becoming important. Remember: you do not have to spend a fortune nor buy pieces in mint condition, especially when you are going to cut it up, pull it apart or restring it! Give old jewellery a fresh lease of life and bring a vintage charm to your designs through an inspired use of beads and charms. Bring your own broken treasures and create something wearable. You will also receive valuable tips in cleaning and preserving your jewellery. Materials Not Included in Price Entry Cost All tickets $50
