Etsy Trashion - Visualizing Beauty in Unconventional Objects and Materials
A new group to keep a watch on: The Etsy Trashion Team—they are a group of 70 artists from all over the world turning trash upside down and inside out! On Friday, July 27th, they will be hosting a trunk show at the Etsy Labs in Brooklyn NYC. (325 Gold Street, Brooklyn NYC.) The trunk show is FREE and open to all ages, plus the first 25 people through the door will receive a FREE trashion team gift bag. RSVP via email at rsvp@etsy.com.
The bracelet above is a great sample of their wonderful wares …created from four pieces of broken zipper parts; tied together with silver wire, results in stunning beauty and fun.
$20.00 at Etsy Trashion’s Shop created by Paulina a DIY pantheist socialist feminist socialist posthumanist idealist, craft artist, journalist and a cultural studies practioner, and a mum, from near the North Pole, Helsinki Rock City in Finland.
