EcoChic Meath

EcoChic is back! With a wide range of events, combining swap shops and workshops to raise awareness on the impacts of fast fashion and textile waste and demonstrate how you can be more sustainable with your clothing.

Check out our events below!

Clothing Swaps

Bring any unwanted clothing and swap it for something you like. We'll accept a maximum of 15 items per person. You'll be given tokens based on what you bring, which you can use to swap for other items available.

Accepting at Clothes Swaps:

Clean wearable clothing and accessories.

Not Accepting at Clothes Swaps:

Shoes, Underwear, swimwear, bedding, jewellery/piercings

Note: Last acceptance of clothing to the swap will be 30 minutes before the event is due to end.

Sewing & Upcycling Workshops

Please note that you will need to bring your own sewing machine to the 'Introduction to Sewing: Get to know your Machine Workshop'.

For the Sashiko Denim Repair workshops you're invited to bring your own denim piece to repair but please note denim will also be available on the day.

For the upcycled fabric jewellery workshop you are also advised to bring an old T-Shirt that you can upcycle.

For the remaining upcycling workshops you're also advised to bring a piece of clothing that you'd like to upcycle and repurpose but spare pieces will be available on the day!

Please note all workshops are running simultaneously so you are advised to book one workshop only that you would like to attend.

All events are free to attend but please book in advance as spaces are limited.
