Honeycomb Accessories

Roseanna McReynolds Creates Statement Styles Using Straws

— June 29, 2009 — Eco
Roseanna McReynolds creates statement jewelry in an unconventional way. Using straws, the designer creates brightly colored necklaces that form into honeycomb-esque circles.

The designs by Roseanna McReynolds are definitely another way to use straws. It’s an unique re-imagining of a pretty mundane item. While a straw doesn’t usually fall under the same category as style, Roseanna McReynolds' honeycomb straw necklaces change that.

Implications - The rise of environmentalism has caused consumers to look for Earth-friendly products in every facet of their lives. These statement accessories are made from straws, turning disposable plastic items into functional pieces of art that can be reworn. Designers can follow suit by infusing their works with sustainable or recycled materials.
Trend Themes
1. Environmental-friendly Accessories - Designers can capitalize on the rise of environmentalism by creating statement accessories made from sustainable or recycled materials.
2. Creative Use of Mundane Items - The unconventional use of straws by Roseanna McReynolds presents an opportunity for designers to reimagine and repurpose other ordinary objects into unique fashion pieces.
3. Functional Art Pieces - By transforming disposable plastic items like straws into functional fashion pieces, designers can tap into the market of wearable art that incorporates everyday materials.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Accessories - The fashion accessories industry can take inspiration from Roseanna McReynolds' straw necklaces and explore new ways to create unique and sustainable statement pieces.
2. Sustainable Fashion - The sustainable fashion industry can benefit from incorporating materials like recycled plastics, such as straws, into their designs to create eco-friendly accessories.
3. Eco-art - The eco-art industry can explore the creation of functional art pieces by repurposing everyday items, like straws, to create visually striking and environmentally conscious works.
