The fourth of 6 free craft workshops running at the Eco-Hub this term. This session will be on metal decoration embossing!
About this Event

Join us for an eco-friendly craft session! You are invited to learn how to turn your trash into ornaments!

How will the session work?:

We will upcycle tomato puree packets into embossed decorations by pressing designs into the packaging side, so they show through on the gold inside of the packet. Participants can bring along their used tomato puree tubes if you have them!

No experience is needed, just enthusiasm and willingness to learn! Tea and Coffee will be available to purchase on the day for 50p a cup.

This workshop is for staff, students and the wider Glagsow community!
