Art & Craft Materials Reuse Shop

Our art & craft reuse shop has a wealth of reusable supplies for the keenest crafter.

An Aladdin’s cave full of art and craft supplies saved from landfill. All the materials are donated preloved items, part used kits, or just leftover bits and bobs donated by crafters. Our stock is always changing, so it's guaranteed there will be something new every time you visit!

Whatever craft you do or or are thinking of trying, come and have a rummage through the remnants shop to grab yourself a bargain. We have fabric, wool, paper, cardboard, beads, buttons, threads, trimmings and so much more. All at a fraction of the cost of buying from new.

We have a range of pre-owned books, magazines and patterns to buy or just take a seat and have a flick through to get some inspiration.

The Reuse shop is a low cost resource for anyone to use, making crafts accessible to all. Funds raised from our sales go towards subsidising the cost of our workshops and groups.

Donating items

We welcome donations of any art and craft supplies, whether new or part used. Items should be bagged or boxed, clean and safe and can be accepted Monday to Thursday and Saturday 10am to 2pm and on Fridays 10am to 4pm.

We are not able to accept the following items, and these can be donated to one of the may charity shops in the town:

curtains,

bedding,

clothes,

electrical items,

pre made items,

stationery.

The Reuse Shop is open Monday 10 - 2, Tuesday to Friday 10 - 4 and Saturday 10 - 2.

How we use your donations

As well as selling the donated materials, they are also used as materials on our workshops and we make our own craft kits to sell and raise funds. This supports our aim to rescue and reuse craft materials to keep them out of landfill.
