Palchemy Trashion Style

Etsy Trashion has a Palchemy Challenge going on!


Above is the first listed item created by ElenaMary for the Trashion Palchemy Challenge! She used the leather scraps sent to her by Beadsinatwist to create an incredible series of

Domestic Settings leather collages.

What is Trashion Palchemy?

It's a fun project uniting Eco-friendly crafters from Etsy. It’s way for us upcyclers to challenge ourselves. Pam of NatureMadeScents organized a swap of materials, between members of the Trashion Team.

Left is the package FairyTaleFibers recieved from Bloomsburygroup, below and to the right is the contents!



Each of us received an exciting package full of things that could be called “Trash”. We know they are treasure! So we are using our skills to remake those items into something new and fantastic!! Each item is then listed in the team members Etsy shop.

Below is the beautiful Kanzashi flower that fairytalefibers made from the contents of the package above!
