The Making Rooms is launching an exciting new hands-on workshop where you’ll create your own earrings or keyrings using recycled 3D printing waste. When a 3D printer changes colour or a print doesn’t go to plan, leftover plastic is often discarded. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to transform that waste material into something beautiful and functional. Join us to turn plastic waste into wearables! What You’ll Learn During this session, you will: • Discover how 3D printing works and why it produces waste • Learn how to transform 3D print waste into reusable plastic plaques • Gain hands-on experience using a laser cutter • Design and create your own earrings or keyring to take home
