: A sky full of stars | Trimmings and thread buttons with star motifs
14 - 15 November 2026, 14:00 - 17:00
Course
During the darkest time of the year, the need for light and colour is particularly strong. That is why this course is full of colourful stars: using wooden blanks and aluminium rings, you will create trimmings and thread buttons featuring star motifs using centuries-old craft techniques – winding, weaving and embroidery. These decorative buttons are ideal as fastenings – for example, as a replacement for boring plastic buttons on ready-made clothing – but can also be turned into jewellery or sewn onto hats, caps, bags and other accessories as eye-catching features.
Prior experience in trimmings button-making is an advantage but not a prerequisite for the course.
