About the Course
Kids can unleash their creativity and spend three days playing with vibrant, colourful fabrics and a variety of embellishments (ribbon and buttons, oh my!) to give some much-needed pizzazz to any unused clothing item. Plain sweatshirts, sweaters and jackets, that shirt with a funny stain, items sitting in the donation pile, pants that are a little too short… if it’s no longer being used, bring it to the camp!
We'll look at all kinds of options for repurposing old jeans and creative as well as visible mending techniques. Will kids add ruffles to that skirt that hasn’t fit for a while? How about turning mom’s old scarf into an adorable dress? Could they take a pretty fabric and, along with some decorative stitches, patch the hole on those pants? They can create whatever comes to their young fashion designer minds! At the end of the camp, we’ll host a short fashion show, in which kids will be able to model their amazing creations!
