Colorful Chair Gallery and Decorative Objects: Chair Upcycling Workshop at Hannover Land Adult Education Center
GROßBURGWEDEL/BISSENDORF – With the right ideas and a little skill, a lot can be done with old chairs. Whether it’s transforming them into a colorful chair gallery for the dining table or creating cool decorative objects for the entrance to the house, apartment, or garden, the possibilities are endless. And now, thanks to the “Chair Upcycling” workshop at the Hannover Land Adult Education Center (VHS), participants can learn how to beautify their own chairs.
The workshop, which aims to give a new lease of life to old chairs, is set to take place at two locations. The first session is scheduled from October 27th to 29th, 2023 at the VHS office in Großburgwedel, with the course number 232KH3021. The second session will be held from November 17th to 19th at the VHS office in Bissendorf, with the course number 232KH3024. Those interested in participating need not worry about having an old chair of their own, as the VHS will provide chairs free of charge.
Viola Wahner, the workshop’s lecturer, emphasizes that even broken or worn-out chairs can be transformed into true design objects through the process of upcycling. Upcycling, a portmanteau of the words “up” – upwards – and “recycling” – reuse, involves breathing new life into waste products or useless objects. In this workshop, participants will learn the art of skillfully showcasing their old chairs, turning them into remarkable and unique pieces.
The Chair Upcycling workshop promises to be an opportunity for participants to unleash their creativity and learn practical skills. From repainting and reupholstering to adding decorative elements, the possibilities are endless for giving old chairs a new purpose and a fresh look. Moreover, this process not only saves money by recycling existing materials but also contributes to sustainable and environmentally friendly practices.
The VHS is renowned for offering a wide range of adult education courses, and the Chair Upcycling workshop is just one among the many exciting opportunities it provides. Participants are encouraged to take part and discover the joy of upcycling while adding a touch of personality to their living spaces.
So, for those looking to breathe new life into their old chairs and embrace the art of upcycling, mark your calendars for the upcoming “Chair Upcycling” workshops at the Hannover Land Adult Education Center. Get ready to bring your creativity and transform ordinary chairs into extraordinary design objects. Don’t miss this chance to turn trash into treasure!]
