In honor of Earth Day, Krrb and Relevé Design teamed up for a free upcycling workshop at Dekalb Market on Saturday. Among the bustling shoppers, Bao-Khang Luu of Relevé Design held a how-to on a DIY version of his stylish woven six-pack rings lamps. If you were shopping the market (like at our Krrb container!) and missed out, don’t fret. You can find a rundown of light pendant and other DIY projects on Relevé Design. Check out photos of the workshop and keep an eye on Krrb for more events like this one.

    So sad I missed it! Looks like it was great and looks like people did a great job with the lamps. Congrats and thanks Bao for shedding (and sharing) some light!

    I had a lot of fun teaching people how to make the six-pack ring pendant lights. Sun, fresh air, and crafting – can’t get better than that. Thank you so much for hosting the workshop!

    Looks amazing, wish I was there. Next time! I’ll be in NYC from May 5-15, will there be another during that period???

    Don’t forget the cupcakes! Sun, fresh air, crafting and cupcakes. You did a great job. Too bad we didn’t have supplies for all the people who wanted to make your lamp. The demand was high.
