Upcycling Workshop: Shoe Decoupage

Looking for fun activities in London that will also help the planet? Come along to this fun upcycling workshop and give your shoes a new lease of life!We all have shoes we don't wear any more — maybe we are bored with them, the colour isn't right, or we like them so much that we have worn them out. Well, now is your chance to re-invent them and give them another chance!Once you've learned the technique, you will be able to upcycle other pairs at home: all you'll need is time, patience, and a few very affordable materials and tools.During this fun four-hour workshop, you will select papers from Gabriela's extensive collection to transform a pair of shoes into your unique creation through decoupage. She will guide you through the design process and show you all the tricks involved in applying very thin paper to a flexible surface. Just find an old pair of shoes or sandals made from leather or plastic (suede or fabric are not suitable), with as little embellishment as possible, and bring it with you. If in doubt, bring a couple of pairs to choose from.At the end of this upcycling class, you will be able to wear your decoupaged shoes out the door and onto the streets of London, as they'll be sealed with a special varnish (unless you’re caught in the pouring rain!).
