Essaouira Upcycled Textile Jewellery Workshop

Create your own upcycled earrings, bracelet, or necklace in a standard group workshop with a local textile jewellery artisan.

Getting started

Check in for your Standard Group Workshop and meet your local artisan, who introduces the concept of upcycled textile jewellery. You join a small-group setting of up to 10 guests and get a brief overview of the tools and recycled textile offcuts you will use. After this short introduction, you move to your workstation and get ready to start making your first piece.

What to expect

Upcycled textile jewellery workshop

During this hands-on jewellery workshop with a local artisan, you explore how recycled fabric can become wearable pieces. The focus is on transforming textile waste from a craft union into earrings, bracelets, or necklaces that you design and assemble yourself.

Features

• Learn how a craft union turns its own waste into a second product line by using recycled textile offcuts as materials, and see how colours, textures, and patterns are matched for jewellery.
• Decide whether you want to focus on making earrings, bracelets, or necklaces, then shape, assemble, and finish each piece step by step with individual guidance.
• Take home every piece you make, leaving with finished jewellery pieces rather than prototypes or samples.
• Work in a standard group workshop format, with all materials, tools, and guidance provided, including all findings, so there is no need to bring any prior experience or equipment.
