Don't Be A Wasteman!

In November last year I was asked to show off my skills at the TeamV Upcycling Fair  "Don't Be A Wasteman" at The MAC Birmingham. It was well received day,  put on by an inspiring and passionate group of young people. I put on mini workshops making Christmas decorations from upcycled fabrics, and rose to the ultimate upcycle challenge by raiding the donations area and transforming an old curtain into a dress, totally on the hoof, no pattern, a time limit of 2hrs! All good fun! One of the TeamV ladies, Ayesha, made this video of the day....take a look and see what it was all about! Watch it in its full glory HERE

The workshop area complete with some awesome TeamV volunteers!
Happy upcyclers, making gifts for loved ones
