Found this great craft supply shop by accident, but it is now my go-to for all things crafty. I usually buy fabric and sewing notions, but they also carry party and office supplies. Beading and jewelry findings, stamping and scrapbooking everything! Craft books, sewing machines, quilting and all hand sewing supplies. Yarn, needles, hooks, counters, patterns, partially finished projects. The prices are great since everything in the store was donated.

Support your local artists and donate some good stuff, or just donate to be an awesome human being.
FYI don't get it confused with the Habitat Restore parking lot. It's at the end of the commercial buildings if coming...
Read moreI wish I could give this place 1,000 stars! ⭐️ I have so much love and respect for ReCreate, it fills an important environmental niche in reducing craft waste and serves a role in the community by offering a place for creatives to gather and pursue creative projects affordably. I love browsing the store for treasures and chatting with the kindest employees. I always leave with more than I expected and paying less than I expected. I wish them so much success and hope to see more places like this in the...
