Join WMRC for an upcycling workshop using rescued wedding dresses!
Attendees will:
Learn key skills to upcycle rescued items.
Change their perspective on unwanted textiles.
Be inspired to make their next event low-waste with stylish upcycled decorations.
Take home their very own low-waste, reusable party and Christmas decorations including festive garlands, tulle pom-poms and ornaments!
All materials, including wedding dresses, will be provided. Attendees also have the option to bring their own wedding dress to upcycle.
This is a great workshop for people passionate about sustainability and looking for new ways to upcycle unwanted or unneeded textile items.
Beginners are welcome, this workshop is suitable for those aged 12+
The wedding dresses used in this workshop have been donated by Vinnies WA Op Shops as they are damaged and unsellable. Reusing the wedding dresses will save them from landfill.

This event is part of WMRC’s Textile Trail and (Re)Love Your Stuff campaign and is supported by the Government of Western Australia and the Waste Authority. Find more textile-themed events on the (Re)Love Your Stuff webpage and the WMRC Humanitix page.
