About this Event

For all ages

under 7 will need a guardian present

Accessorize Your Life is a hands-on workshop for girls that pairs creativity with character.

We’ll talk about the small, everyday “accessories” we choose to wear — confidence, curiosity, kindness, good habits — and how tiny choices add up to who we become. Then we’ll put it into practice: each person transforms a plain pair of flip flops into a one-of-a-kind accessory using yarn and charms, and makes a matching keychain to take home.

What’s included:

• All materials: yarn, charms, beads, rubber cord, keychain hardware, tools

• Full facilitation and guided craft instruction

• A drawstring pouch to take your creations home in

• 20% off drinks at Ori Café next door, just for booking with us

Location:

John Lewis CMK, Discovery Room (next to Ori Café)

Duration: 2.5 hours (12:00pm–2:30pm)

Price: £20 per ticket plus eventbrite booking fee


Who it’s for:

All ages — younger kids will love the making, older kids will get more out of the discussion. Buddy pairing on the day means every age level is supported.


What to bring:

• One pair of plain rubber flip flops (no straps, wedges, or platforms — this is important for the weaving technique to work)
