BOWEROGRAPHY 2.0 is in full swing. We'd love to see you next Saturday at The Bower for a spot of DIY bookbinding, or if that's not your cup of tea, maybe some aromatic candle making the following Saturday or DIY upholstery after that.

All Bowerography events are free and held in The Bower Eco-Library  (up the stairs in the middle of the shop) Hut 34, The Addison Road Centre, 142 Addison Road, Marrickville.

The noble art of DIY bookbinding is the topic for this coming Saturday. So sign up for some seriously creative re-use. Joanna will show you how to bind scrap books, notebooks, albums and more from re-use stationery and other salvaged materials in The Bower.


Saturday September 17th – Candlemaking
Our lovely co-op brothers and sisters from Alfalfa House have kindly donated some beautiful homegrown bees wax for this candle making workshop. We will show you how to use unused bric-a-brac, glass jars and bottles and everyday packaging to create beautiful centrepieces, gifts and mood lighting options. Come along to this wonderful demonstration and take home some beautiful candles!

Saturday September 24th – Upholstery
Suppliers, materials, techniques - anything stopping you from doing your own re-use upholstery? Stop by for an upholstery demonstration and ask any questions you might have. This is not a BYO workshop as space is limited, but you will learn sound basics of DIY upholstery.

Please RSVP to reserve your place and pass this on to your friends and networks. All are invited!
