Creative Projects at Home

Recycled Fashion Show

Show off your creative skills by having a recycled fashion show at home!

To run your recycled fashion show you will need:

• Get creative with what is in your house! Anything from old fabric, newspaper, bottle lids and much more can be used to make your catwalk outfit! • Sewing materials • Glue • Paint • Markers • Scissors • Camera (optional)

• Creating an upcycled outfit can be an interesting challenge. • Choose a theme to help the creative juices flow. For example, a night at the IFTA awards, retro couture, holiday chic, rock ‘n’ roll, fashionably professional, midsummer night dream, 2050 etc. • Look around your home and see what materials are available, this could be old shopping bags, fabric, newspaper, curtain rings, art and craft supplies, tetra pack. The opportunity is endless! • Test out your sewing skills and try incorporate new materials onto an outfit! • Adding a competitive edge can increase young people’s interest, ask them to compete with other members in the home or virtually with family and friends! • When finished creating the new outfit, why not host a fashion show at home or digitally to show off the creations.
