Upcycle Clothing Workshop

Date/Time: Monday, September 22, 6:00–9:00 pm

Location: Wild Bobbin – 182 Wellington Street, Kingston ON

Hosted by: Kulab Community x Wild Bobbin

Give your clothing a second life! Join us for a fun and creative evening of upcyling with the help of local makers. In celebration of Wild Bobbin’s brand-new space, we’re teaming up to host a hands-on workshop where you’ll learn simple techniques to refresh a few items of clothing and fall in love with your clothes again.

🎟️ Tickets are $30 and include:

• Entry to the workshop
• A drink + treat
• 3 coupons (each worth $5) to use at maker stations

🧵 Extra coupons are available to purchase during the event ($5 each).👕 Please bring any clothing items to upcycle (jeans, t-shirts, jackets, etc.).

You’ll rotate between creative stations, each hosted by a local artist. Use your coupons to choose the projects you’d like to try — and take home clothing that feels brand new.

• 🎨 Fabric Painting – paint or draw directly on your clothes
• 🔲 Lino Stamp Printing – add bold, handmade designs
• 🪡 Embroidery – learn a few stitches and add custom flair
• 🔘 Buttons – replace or add fun vintage buttons
• 🩹 Patches – iron-on, sew-on, or DIY your own from fabric scraps

(Stations may vary slightly, but all will give you fun ways to make your clothes unique!)

• Learn new skills from local artists
• Refresh clothing you already own
• Be part of the launch of Wild Bobbin’s new creative space
• Connect with a like-minded community around sustainability & creativity
• Enjoy snacks, drinks, and a vibrant, hands-on evening
