Come and join Bluebird Upholstery and learn how to make a beautiful sustainable string of Fabric Fairy Lanterns.
About this Event

You will make a string of 10 fabric fairy lanterns with LED lights, to add an eco-twinkle to your home or gift to a loved one. Bluebird Upholstery will be supplying an array of gorgeous vintage and modern printed silk and cotton fabrics, including fabrics upcycled from vintage silk scarves and garments, from which you can choose your own unique fabric selections for your bespoke fairy lanterns.


Or if you would like to bring along your own fabrics then please do, this all helps to add to the personalised and eco-friendly nature of your lights – thin cottons and silks with small to medium size patterns work best.


At the end of the session, as well as taking away your beautiful handmade string of fairy lanterns, you will receive rechargeable AA batteries and a plug-in charger, so that your lanterns can be sustainably powered for years to come!


This workshop is suitable for ages 16+.


This workshop would normally cost you £45. Thanks to Liverpool BID Company for sponsoring this workshop in celebration of the festive season. Find more Christmas offers from Liverpool BID Company members here.
