I also run environmentally beneficial workshops, that sees people turn scrap into something new and wonderful!!!

The premise is that I collect scrap fabrics (predominantly leathers) that are destined for the bin, and then make, sell and teach people how to make earrings that are unique, handmade and get a brand new life. Hence the name ‘one man’s trash’

The workshops tend to see me teach/manage a maximum of 10 people at a time – each person has their own cutting board, rotary cutters, tools, and access to materials. This group size means I can attend to those who need help, and encourage those who are off to a flying start!

This can work either by teaching 10 people at a time in one go, or having people just take a spot if there’s a place free. The former works if it is being used as a unique activity or bridge between one activity and another. The latter works if the workshop is part of a bigger event all happening simultaneously.

People can then wear what they’ve made there and then, or have them wrapped up as gifts, in recycled wrapping of course!
