People who have un-needed craft supplies (like ones who no longer craft for one reason or another, have left over usable material, need to purge their materials, or produce materials) donate the art and craft materials they don't need to my store. Other local artists and crafters come in and browse the materials to find what they need like an awesome piece of vintage fabric, buttons, glass eyes, c
razy papers, oodles of yarn, half used tubes of paint, or a bushing! Instead, shoppers are told to pay what they feel is fair. It's amazing to see how happy and honest people are when you give them the freedom to be happy and honest. My goal is to help give great materials new life. Its amazing how many art materials are just thrown away when they could have been used by someone else. My other goal is to re-energize and inspire people to create pieces when they find something new or different in my store.
