It’s one of the reasons we started from sheet to shirt: the images of piles and piles of textiles wasted at landfills. And our biggest motivator to do something about this are our kids: to keep the world viable for them - and the next to come. So why not involve future generations in the process?
And so decided to organize upcycling workshops for kids. Together with upcycling expert Charlotte from Creative Fashion Academy they make their own small tote bags from our rejected hotel sheets. They discuss the environmental impact of textile waste and the benefits of circularity.
Kids learn about upcycling, sustainability and basic sewing techniques.
We hope to inspire kids to change the way they look at the clothing they own - or want to buy. And spark their creativity. With beautiful tote bags to take home as a proud result.
We organize and customize workshops in consultation with schools. Interested? Send us an email at info@fromsheettoshirt.com and we’ll get back to you.
