Welcome to Brutal Frugality

Hello! My name is Noe. Recently I turned 30 and am living in Buffalo, NY as a full time college student earning a degree in Horticulture and part time human who loves playing outdoors. Plants and the earth are my bread and butter-because with out them we wouldn't have bread and butter! Being a full time student I don't have much time for a full time job at the moment, so this platform will help me along with life. That being said, for the time being I will only be able to offer minimal ship dates throughout the week and not daily. This shop will be a mix of brand name and off brand items, mostly more vintage and y2k era styles, as well as items that I have reworked and created. All reasonably priced, hence Brutal Frugality. I am very artistic and create a lot of unique, OOAK clothing pieces. Specializing in hand embroidery, fabric printing and painting, as well as wire wrapping for jewelry making. It would be so wonderful to work with you to create a piece that is special to you, please consider me for your diy custom creations. It should be noted that I do live in a home with feline companions, however all the clothing items have been pre washed, cared for and packaged in a separate cat free area of the home. The items shown above are example work of what I have done, most of which are NFS or no longer available. The style can be replicated but no two pieces are the same. If you have any questions about anything please reach out. Thanks for looking! 💞✨
