Enjoy a fun, hands-on workshop where you will transform preloved denim and fabric into a practical, stylish accessory perfect for all seasons. This creative session is designed for all skill levels, so no advanced sewing experience is needed—just bring your enthusiasm to get creative. The workshop is led by the Wild Woman of Willunga, who specializes in upcycling and sustainable fashion.
You'll learn simple upcycling techniques that help reduce waste while making something fresh and uniquely yours. All materials and equipment are provided, so you can relax and enjoy the process without any hassle. This is a wonderful opportunity to spend a creative afternoon, learn new skills, and contribute positively to the environment.
The workshop runs on 17 June 2026 from 12:30 to 15:30. It is suitable for parents looking for a meaningful and enjoyable activity to engage in, possibly alongside their school-aged children or as a personal creative outlet. The session will cover fabric selection, cutting, and sewing techniques to create a reversible bucket hat.
Participants will leave with a finished product they can wear proudly, knowing it was made sustainably. The cost is $15 per person, and spots are limited, so early booking is recommended to secure your place.
