Twitter user shir0xxx transforms traditional glue gun crafts into a fashionable form of self expression. Based in Japan, the artist uses an unconventional material to create objects that boast a couture-themed design style.
Each accessory piece boasts a unique aesthetic and is surprisingly crafted using an inexpensive glue gun and hot glue materials. Each piece is intricately crafted by shir0xx and is dried before being ready to wear.
In addition to custom props like ornate bottles, the artist also creates a handful of jewelry pieces along with masks, crowns and even mouth guards that feature a conceptual point of view. Though not ideal for everyday wear, these pieces are a unique prop for photographers and content creators interested in creating whimsical imagery.
