### Flip & Sip: Circularity in Practice

Join us for a relaxed, hands-on Flip & Sip session where conversation and connection happen through making.
You’ll be invited to move between simple upcycling stations, learn practical skills, and engage with others while creating. It’s an easy, social way to unwind, share ideas, and build your circular repertoire in a more natural, collaborative setting.

Try your hand at:

• Turning old T-shirts into yarn
• Making macramé dog toys or key rings
• Creating fabric coasters from reclaimed materials
• Using appliqué to repair or transform garments

Feel free to bring along a T-shirt of your own that could use a little uplifting — whether it’s covering a stain, repairing a hole, or simply giving it a new life.
No experience needed — just bring yourself (and something to sip). Come as you are, make something small, and connect with others who care about circularity in action.
