We created a list of several sustainable workshops in the Netherlands that you and your mom can follow, from upcycling your clothes to making your own bag to getting ethical styling advice to swapping clothes together.
Roua atelier
Would you like to learn textile dyeing with natural and ecological dyes? Then follow a workshop at Roua Atelier in Amsterdam-West! Roua is an expert in her field and loves to experiment with new dyeing techniques. During a workshop, she will teach you all the steps of natural dyeing in a fun and educational way and introduce you to the process, fibres, dyes and pigments.
Book a sustainable walking tour with a group of friends for a fun afternoon of shopping, or as a company outing, for example, and learn all about sustainability! So you’ll have a fun and informative afternoon. Want to know more about when you can book a tour, or are you curious whether a tour can be organised in your city? Then contact Marije via her website.
Iris Nijenhuis
Combine your favourite colours in a cheerful bracelet, a pair of earrings or puzzle out your own necklace in a unique shape. For larger groups, it is also possible to organise a workshop on location.
Ethical Fashion Stylist in Amsterdam
Then book a workshop at the Ethical Fashion Stylist! At the Private Shopping Workshop you will discover your own unique clothing style combined with sustainable brands together with Ethical Fashion Stylist Ashna. Or, you can follow a Fashion Forward Tour about the past, present and future of the fashion industry. Here you will be able to discover sustainable, vintage and zero-waste fashion and meet the changemakers in the industry.
Or what about a Workshop Mindfull Fashion? Here you will discover what lives inside you so you can decide what truly fits your personality.
Do you also sometimes stand in front of your closet and have no idea what to wear? Then the Closet Session Workshop will be a perfect fit! Together with Ashna you will dive into your closet and find new combinations and ways to make your wardrobe feel and fit you again.
