This is a fun activity in Maida Vale, London
Create your own eco-friendly alternative to cling film in this London workshop. Instead of throwing away endless plastic wrap, you’ll make reusable beeswax wraps that are practical, sustainable, and stylish -- a perfect way to brighten up your kitchen while reducing waste.
You’ll start by designing your own patterns, carving a lino-cut to create a repeat, and printing onto cotton fabric with water-based inks. Then, using beeswax to form the sealed layer, you’ll transform your printed fabric into waterproof, reusable wraps. They’re naturally antibacterial, easy to wash, and can be re-waxed to last for months of use. No experience required!
**What to expect:**
- Learn how to design and print your own cotton fabric with lino-cut patterns.
- Discover the process of waxing fabric to create durable, reusable wraps.
- Make a set of wraps you can use for sandwiches, cheese, bread, jars, or bowls.
- Get tips for re-waxing at home and creating different sizes to suit your needs.
- Enjoy a fun, eco-conscious craft in a beginner-friendly setting!
By the end of the workshop, you’ll take home a set of unique, handmade beeswax wraps -- a practical, planet-friendly alternative to cling film that you can keep reusing again and again!
