Design your own Sneakers Workshop (Age 11+) – Summer Holiday Workshop
Southern Maltings
Wed 31st July 2024
2pm
Design your own Sneakers Workshop - Unique hand painted sneakers are the latest thing!
Using fabric paints and iron on vinyl's, you will design and create your own unique pair of sneakers to wear with pride all summer long! Walk out the door knowing you are the only person in the world to wear this unique footwear!
We will show you how to use the paints and be on hand to assist you to apply the vinyl's to your sneakers and then press everything to complete them.
This workshop will require some manual dexterity, so we have split into age groups.
Either workshop is suitable for children alone as a drop off or parents and kids to create together. Just order separate sizes when booking.
Session 1 10am 1pm age 7+
Session 2 2pm - 5pm age 11+
This workshop will be lead by tutor Tina Goodman. Tina studied art & design before conforming to a more traditional career, but crafting has always been her passion, and she describes herself as a 'serial crafter'! At every spare opportunity, she has learned new skills and techniques, which she has happily passed on during group crafting sessions. Tina has been a lead Fun Palace maker for a number of years, during which she has taught some of these skills to the participants at Ware's the Fun Palace (including a video tutorial on how to make a document wallet from on-line delivery packaging during the lockdown fun palace).
