PVC canvases are durable and waterproof since they are made from a type of plastic, making them long-lasting and thus suitable to be made into pouches, wallets, and other functional items.
Of course! If you have banners that you no longer require, we would be open to collaborating with you to reuse them instead.

The upcycling workshop is great for teenagers and adults. Since the workshop requires fine motor skills in handling and using sharp objects such as scissors and pen knife, it is generally not as suitable for young children.
PVC canvasses are waterproof so you may wash them with a bit of soap and water or use a wet cloth to remove dirt or stains! It is recommended to handle your pouch/wallet carefully too to minimise creases in the material over time.
