About The Creator Behind Funky Grunge Boutique

Welcome to Funky Grunge Boutique  where junk meets funk and janky denim gets a second life.

Founded and handcrafted by me Tangie Bell, this boutique is home to one-of-a-kind handbags, accessories, and funky finds made for people who love standing out instead of fitting in.

Here’s the deal: I take old thrifted jeans, worn denim, and upcycled scraps and flip them into wild, weird, unapologetically bold handbags. My specialty is ripping apart janky jeans and turning every piece into artsy bags you won’t find anywhere else. Think shredded denim, outrageous rips, patched textures, and unexpected details like clothespins, dominoes, wooden blocks, and random funky objects that somehow just work together.

My signature Ugly Denim Bags are more than handbags, they’re conversation starting style pieces designed to turn heads and spark creativity. And if you love wearable art, I also create handmade earrings using leftover scraps from old clothing, mixed with hand-painted details and artistic touches.

Beyond the handmade pieces, you’ll also find curated preloved finds, funky accessories, and personal favorites from my own closet that I occasionally list for resale. If it feels artsy, edgy, nostalgic, funky, or full of character, there’s a good chance it’ll end up here.

But Funky Grunge Boutique is bigger than bags.

It’s also connected to my growing creative world built around confidence, self-expression, aging out loud, and wearing what feels like YOU.

You can find more personal stories, style inspiration, and creative adventures through my movement and blog,

Wear What The Funk You Want, where I share exclusive finds, real-life moments, and my journey building a community of like-minded women learning to show up boldly as themselves. 

And if you want even more of my personal journal life journey, you can also find me over at Tangie Bell

Catch me across social media for funky updates, behind-the-scenes moments, and creative chaos. 

Follow along this wild journey!
