Rippling Out Further: Upcycle an old t-shirt with some new words!

Rippling Out Further presents a hands-on upcycling workshop where you can transform an old T-shirt by adding some new words. This creative session invites participants to explore how text and simple textile techniques can give a well-loved garment a fresh lease of life. Whether you want to personalise a favourite tee, make a thoughtful gift, or experiment with sustainable fashion, this event focuses on playful, practical creativity.

Participants will be guided through straightforward ways to incorporate words and lettering into fabric, helping you to plan a layout, choose wording and apply it in a way that suits your style. The emphasis is on accessibility, so the session is suitable for all skill levels and encourages experimentation rather than perfection. Bring an old T-shirt you are ready to restyle and discover how a few words can change its character.

By combining simple craft practice with thoughtful design, this workshop highlights the joys of repair, reuse and personal expression. It is a relaxed, friendly environment where practical tips meet creative ideas, making it easy to leave with a renewed favourite garment and inspiration for further upcycling projects.
