ReCreate Kids Upcycling Workshop

This can be a drop and go workshop for your child or you are welcome to stay and take part as well as long as you purchase a place (discount for booking two). Where imagination meets sustainability. If you're looking for a fun and meaningful activity for your child then this is for you. Let your child dive into a world of creative upcycling - turning everyday items into colourful, one of a kind masterpieces. Fun, hands on planet-friendly crafting for curious young makers. This is a sustainable, upcycling workshop where children will also learn about sustainability and the circular economy in a fun and interactive way. I will also teach them about recycling vs upcycling and how small changes can help our planet.Your child will learn how to upcycle pre-loved items using paint, decoupage and decorative effect techniques such as stenciling. Bring along a non-breakable bowl, picture frame, mirror or box or plate and children will learn how to give it a whole new life with paint and/or decoupage. There will be lots of choice of paint and patterns available. I ask that children bring something from home as this is a sustainable workshop but I am also able to provide an item but please let me know. This is suitable for children from Year 3 to Year 7 with a maximum number of 8 places so that it is a small group hands on experience. I have 15 years experience of teaching in Primary schools and I was formerly an Assistant Headteacher so your child is in good hands. This will be held at my new Vintage Chic ReLoved Studio, Ferry Lane, Shepperton which has a Cafe which serves lovely food and coffee so this could be an opportunity to meet friends whilst your child is learning about the environment. There is also a hairdresser and a beautician on site. A fully upcycled bowl, plate, box or picture frame. Whilst mirrors are breakable they do make lovely items to upcycle and I'm happy for your child to bring one along. Read more details
