Would you like to add a persona touch to your old coat?
Change a look of your favourite cardigan?
Wearing a customised, handmade brooch could completely change your look so why not to join us for a 2-hour brooch making workshop, where you will learn very basic stitching and working with various upcycled fabrics including felt, tweed and tartan scraps.
If you prefer to use your own materials or have some pieces of sentimental value you would like to use, you are more than welcome to bring them along.
During this workshop, we will also touch on the theory of colours and how they can affect and change our moods.
This workshop is led by Anna Baran, a trauma informed designer, artist, and maker based in the north of Edinburgh. She has always drawn inspiration from the sea, with her walks to local beaches, particularly Wardie Bay during the lockdown, becoming not only a source of new ideas for her artistic practice but also a way to gather materials such as driftwood, pieces of plastic ropes, and seashells.
Anna has consistently sought to incorporate upcycled materials into her art, using her work to raise environmental awareness and promote art as an accessible medium for self-expression, regardless of financial circumstances.
In addition to participating in various art exhibitions and fashion-related events, she has delivered a wide range of art and craft workshops to diverse communities across Edinburgh.
This FREE workshop is for Adults women only and is sponsored by CORRA and HENRY DUNCAN GRANTS
