binglybongly wants you 2 DANCE!
Plus... OLGA'S WORKSHOP... Material World, a recycling revamping textile workshop for the whole family.
Have u an outgrown t-shirt, worn out trousers or a plain boring dress hiding in your wardrobe? Do you want to transform it into a personal, made to measure garment or trendy shopping bag?
We will use basic sewing, restyling and print-making techniques fun and suitable for all ages.
With simple rug-rag weaving little ones will learn the Art of Transformation, the little older ones, the Art of Inspiration as they design their own t-shirt print, and the rest rekindle the Art of Imagination while personalizing an otherwise bland wardrobe.
Please bring with you scissors, pen and paper, bits of trims, your bits of material, sewing kit and sewing machine if u have got any of those as our resources as limited.
SUNDAY UPSTAIRS AT GALLERY SPACE FROM NOON TO 6 PM.
and also BALLOON TWISTING with HIPPY :) !!!!

and finally...
binglybongly T shirts
At last we can all now own our very own piece of binglybonglyness in the shape of T shirts. Yes, after much struggle we found some shirts we like and printed them with the design we like, and the result - well, we like it. Just go here. Enjoy!
That's it for now. All the best from everybody at binglybongly mansions.
More info on all of our thingies can be found in the left-hand menu.
