Dixie Cup - Tumblr Posts
Radical. Totally tubular. Out of this world. Anachronistic. Part of a complete breakfast. Transmogrified. Taken off the air for causing seizures. Super soaked. Released with a full line of action figures.
Yes I made a vaporwave pup play muzzle with the Jazz/Dixie cup swoosh design. I did it because once the idea came to me, I physically could not prevent myself from manifesting it into reality. (And because my favorite thing is mixing genres and aesthetics that were never meant to go together.)
Would you like to adopt this pup? Favorite hobbies include cosmic bowling, Blockbuster and chill, and chewing on your drinking straw. Call the number on your screen! Operators are standing by!
I made a couple of these for Anthro New England, as a play on this year's con theme of The Nineties.
It took more effort to get the idea to work than I'd expected, but I was really happy with the result.
(For the curious: the bracelets have to be 2-layered to sandwich the metal spring core inside. It turned out the only way to make it sturdy enough was to hand-stitch it together. And since the layers have thickness to them, the inner one has to be slightly shorter than the outer one, with the stitching holes slightly compressed accordingly. That way, the natural relaxed shape of the bracelet once it's sewn together is curled up with an appropriate diameter.)
And of course they are for sale on my Etsy page!
(The Jazz design isn't on my Etsy because the last thing I made with that pattern got a takedown notice from the cup company. But if you poke me individually I can make you one.)
Leather slap bracelet! It does the thing!
