Learn to create your own one of a kind pair of slippers using all upcycled and recycled materials in this relaxing Melbourne class! This is the perfect winter class to get you through the cold Melbourne weather.

This slipper class is designed for all levels, even those without sewing experience. In the class, you will learn to give your old or accidentally felted woollens a new life in the form of a cosy pair of slippers!

By upcycling your old jumpers and cardigans, you will discover that just about anything can be remade into something super useful, allowing you to save money and reduce your impact on the environment.

Some tools and materials will be provided including leather for the soles. At the end of the class, you will take home your own cosy pair of slippers along with a light vegetarian lunch.
