Etsy Trashion Team

We are a Team of Etsy artisans dedicated to the Art of Trashion.

We create art, jewelry, fashion and objects for the home, made from materials that were leftover, discarded, or found and sell them on Etsy.

Trashion is all about bringing out the beauty in unconventional objects and materials.
For us recycling is an art and an ideal. The Trashion philosophy encompasses environmentalism and innovation, and respects the human creative and healing potential.
