Make Your Own Up-Cycled Jewelry

Welcome to Make Your Own Up-Cycled Jewelry event at Creative Chicago Reuse Exchange! Join us for a fun and creative workshop where you can learn how to make unique jewelry pieces from up-cycled materials. Get ready to unleash your creativity and design one-of-a-kind accessories while also helping the environment by repurposing items. This in-person event is perfect for anyone interested in sustainable fashion and DIY projects. Don't miss out on this opportunity to create beautiful jewelry with a twist!

Create as many earrings, pendants, zipper pulls or bookmarks as you like from a huge assortment of discarded upholstery samples and beautiful second-hand fabric including velvet, linen and both faux and genuine leather. Use one of the dozens of templates provided or create your own design. Embellish your creation with a huge selection of second-hand beads and jewelry pieces. The only limit is your imagination!

All skill levels are welcome. Your instructor, Jessica, will be there to provide guidance and technical assistance for every step. All findings and tools will be provided (including clip-on earrings). The class usually runs 2 hours.

Recommended for ages 8 & up.
