Free Jewelry-Making Workshop using Discarded Office Device

“in principle, we can use everything for anything in a more or less successful way. " (Holger van den Boom) Chris Berthelsen invites you to this design "event". "Please join me from 11am till "whenever" to make jewelry and "stuff" from this discarded office device I found in the rain on Matipo Road. I will have some tools but please bring anything you think might be useful. If you can't come this day please let me know and I will arrange more sessions."
