Help us celebrate Youth Week
Did you know there is an easy eco-sustainable solution to single use plastic wrap? They are called 'beeswax wraps'! Use these amazing re-usable wraps to keep your sandwiches and snacks fresh without plastic.
In celebration of Youth Week 2025 we invite 15-25 year olds to Ryde library to learn how to make your own beeswax wraps for yourself or as a gift.
In the session you will:
- learn about the different methods to create the wraps;
- choose from a selection of patterned cotton fabrics;
- make 2 wraps (approximately 36cm x 33cm) using different methods; and
- take home an instruction guide to make more wraps at home.
You are welcome to bring and wear an apron and you may want to wear older clothes. Warning - this workshop is NOT suitable for children under 15 years old as there will be hot substances and the use of irons involved.
