Afternoon, I'm Fragzle, Dandy and trash-cat extraordinaire. 'Least I keep getting told I'm extraordinary. I, uh, woke up one morning in pretty rough shape in some alley, and patched myself together with whatever I had. Since then I've been subsisting and thriving on trash. Kinda wish I knew what I was doing before...








First look for the TCE Trash Makeover Challenge, modeled by the lovely Megan.
Top, hat, and waistband are the 3 layers of fabric carefully peeled apart from a piece of luggage, shoulder flourish is a backsplat from a chair, skirt is plastic shipping straps woven into a plaid with a bubble wrap lining

My other look for the TCE Trash Makeover Challenge, as modeled by Nicole.
The placemat hat and adding machine purse were the two pieces that first inspired me when I was trying to figure out what to make for this show, then added the silver cat food bag for both skirt and top, with lampshade finishing up the top, wooden blinds overskirt, and one velvet dress cut up and distributed throughout.



Both looks and also me around



On Wednesday I did a trashion show for Recycled Reads using materials decommissioned from the public library system. Also my first time using hot glue on clothes, maybe ever.
Materials used: Records, a watercolor guide to Texas wildflowers, and a photo guide to butterflies

Still my favorite piece of jewelry I ever made Broken sewing machine needles and a mirror mount with a rhinestone on a brooch #jewelry #thingsivemade #trashion #upcycle






Goth/punk/alt pants 🏴☠️

This delightful pair of cheeky undies is actually an upcycled top made from a tropical print slinky fabric. Paired with a store bought Hoodie that showcases perfectly with this pair of undies. While at a thirst shop looking for treasures, found this fantastic top that would make great undies. Unfortunately didn't think to get b4 pics. Tho it dose shows how just about anything could be made in to a pair of undies if you look in the right place!
