Discover how to sew and upcycle

Step inside the workshop run by Sophie, Mathilde and their team and discover the wonderful world of upcycling! It's in their lovely premises that you'll be introduced to sewing, working alongside these volunteers who are committed to upcycling and the circular economy.

First, the artisans will show you around the premises and introduce the approach adopted by their association.

Then, it's time to talk about sewing! Explanations regarding the sewing machine and sewing will be provided, for example: how to use a machine, what are the different stitches, spot tacking... 

Once you are familiar with the various terms, it's time to get practising! 

You will start by choosing the fabrics from the lovely selection in the fabric library. Once you've chosen your favourite fabrics, you'll set up at the machine and start sewing your makeup remover wipes. 

Sophie, Mathilde, and their team will of course be at your side to guide you through each stage of creation, demonstrating their fine teaching capabilities, but most of all, their passion!

You will leave this workshop with your own upcycled makeup remover wipes and, most importantly, the desire to consume better!
