Bits & Beads: Sustainability Workshop | Dry January Festival

Transform unconventional & discarded materials into beautiful pieces of jewelry...while having tons of fun in the meantime with plenty of good tunes, new friends and a good laugh guaranteed!

This sustainable jewelry-making workshop will empower you to create stunning pieces from metal and other recycled materials. Participants are encouraged to bring along old jewelry, beads, lace, textiles, wool, and other materials to incorporate into the finished piece, adding extra sentimental value and giving new life to materials that would otherwise go to waste.

Tamara from @toofabulousartandcrafts is the facilitator of this workshop. Originally from the Italian Alps, her upbringing in nature greatly inspired her to create textile art and crafts using mostly recycled or locally sourced materials.
