Soft plastic is one of the most common in the world of plastic waste - it is quite possibly the trashiest form of trash.
But in just 30 seconds, you can turn it from waste to a valuable resource. Soft plastic waste from the Queen Victoria Market has been sourced and you'll be taught how to transform it and blanket stitch your own handcrafted glasses case in this 45-minute workshop. And the best part? You'll leave with everything you need to repeat the process back at home.
Part of the Purpose Precinct's (re)makerspace series.
Workshop facilitator Into Carry is a creative upcycling studio exploring methods to bring value to wasted and overlooked materials. Their work focuses on finding processes that can easily be taught to others and repeated from the comfort of their own home.
