#punk diy

Let go of the idea that diy will inherently look shit. All your clothes are handmade you just don't see the people doing it.

stop censoring yourself!! it is something i keep seeing young kids on here doing and its so disheartening. censorship is inherently fascist. you need to say what you mean, you need to talk about uncomfortable topics, if we allow social media algorithms to impact how we speak in real life we are doomed. people are not unalived they are killed or murdered, people are not 🍇ed they are raped. if you can not speak about the realities of oppresion and violence truthfully you might aswell not be speaking at all.

"I don't know what to put on my jacket!! I don't have patches!!"

Things I have on my jacket and my partners have on their jackets that aren't patches:

A metal brooch(?) I think it's some kind of ornament. It's metal and has rhinestones on it

A bumper sticker. It's stuck and sewed on

A lanyard. I got it from an ACLU labor union meeting at the state capitol

A metal beetle that broke off a bracelet

Extra pockets, a fabric glasses case, a lighter holder, a built-in cigarette pouch, etc. Good for hiding shit

On that note, a built-in first aid kit

Belt loops from old pants. Good for clipping carabiners and keychains. Also good for yk. Belts

Embroidered barbed wire with dental floss/jewelry wire. Did scratch himself and other people with it tho so be careful.

The back patch on my jacket is just the front of an old band T shirt

Spikes (you can make these out of monster or soda cans)

Detachable sleeves for winter. Made with old zippers

An eyelet hole big enough to plug headphones thru while keeping an iPod in the pocket

Built in sewing kit

Built in watch and compass (badass as hell)

Punk isn't copy and paste. That's the whole point. Get creative

punk rat

you could say he's wearing a rattlevest

i made him for my bf, were making rats that look like ourselves to swap them.

i am so proud of how this little guy turned out, his jacket is looking better than mine, and its fully from scraps and other stuff i still had laying around

added a "misfits" patch, a rat skull patch and a trans anarchy patch, drew some gay stuff one the inside

i gave him piercings to match mine too, and gave his jacket buttons so you can close it! altho it is but tight but it looks better this way.

plus some closeups of the details:

gave him an arm cuff and a tail cuff, i avoided using shark spikes so he's still somewhat huggable

he is my son and im glad my bf is getting custody of him cause i wouldnt be able to give him away to anyone else.
