We are very pleased to announce that Jenn Playford will be conducting a Furochic workshop at Plenty on November 27th from 2 - 4 pm (part of our Buy Nothing Day activities, a day to pause and reflect on the need to make our consumer choices more sustainable: eco-friendly, organic, and socially responsible.  More activities to be announced shortly).

What: Furochic Workshop

When: November 27th, 2 - 4 pm

Where: Plenty, 1034 Fort Street, Victoria, BC

Cost: $28, to be paid in advance

Furochic is a reusable cloth gift wrap in brilliant colours and patterns designed by Jenn Playford. It is easy to use, versatile, eco-friendly and fun!  Jenn based it on Furoshiki, the traditional Japanese wrapping cloth used to embellish gifts as well as a handy everyday item to wrap, protect and carry.  It is perfect for green gift giving as it replaces disposable paper gift wrap and bags, and can be reused over and over again and to make gifts feel special and unique.  Get hands on with Furochic and learn easy and inventive wrapping techniques.

Advance registration and payment ($28) is required for the workshop. The cost includes one Furochic wrap ($10 value) and a copy of Jenn’s new book Wrapagami ($20 value).  Please register by phoning us (250-380-7654) or dropping by the store prior to November 27th.
