đź§µ Accessorize with Vintage Buttons! - Button Sewing Workshop

Thursday, Nov 13 | 6:00–8:00 PM

📍 FASHION ZONE @ TMU, 44 Gerrard St E Room 312, Toronto, ON M5B 1W7

Give your clothes a fresh twist with just the right vintage buttons. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to professionally hand-sew a variety of button styles — from flat and shank buttons to decorative statement ones. We'll go over proper techniques, tools, thread matching, placement, and how to reinforce buttons so they last.

You'll get plenty of time to practice by sewing multiple buttons, and we’ll troubleshoot common issues like loose threads, poor alignment, or mismatched sizing. Walk away confident in refreshing and mending your wardrobe with simple, impactful touches.


What to Bring:
  • Your own clothing that needs new buttons
  • Optional - your own buttons (we'll have a beautiful selection of vintage buttons)
  • A notebook + pencil

What We Provide:
  • A wide variety of vintage buttons and thread
  • Hand-sewing tools
  • Hands-on instruction and button sewing demos

This is a great workshop if you're new to sewing or looking to add flair and longevity to your wardrobe.

PROMOTIONS:
50% off Discount for Toronto Metropolitan University students (you will be required to show your onecard before the workshop)

FREE for TMU Fashion Zone members (you will be required to show your onecard and proof of membership before the workshop)

👥 Limited to 15 spots — sign up early to secure your seat!
