Why Your Next Craft Thrift Store Haul Should Come from Remnants

Your Favorite Craft Thrift Store—Now Online

For makers, artists, and DIY enthusiasts, there’s nothing quite like the thrill of a craft thrift store. Digging through bins of fabric scraps, sorting buttons by the handful, or unearthing a stash of vintage yarn—it’s where inspiration starts and reuse thrives.

At Remnants, we’ve taken the magic of a traditional craft thrift store and brought it online. Our marketplace is a curated hub for secondhand art and craft supplies, where you can shop sustainably, save money, and find unique materials that spark your creativity.

What You'll Find on Remnants

Unlike big-box craft stores, Remnants is rooted in reuse. Our listings are all about giving good materials a second (or third!) life. Browse categories like:

  • Fabric & Textiles: From quilting cotton to upholstery scraps

  • Yarn & Thread: Partial skeins, vintage spools, and discontinued colors

  • Paper & Ephemera: Old maps, sheet music, scrapbooking odds and ends

  • Beads & Jewelry Supplies: Deconstructed pieces, vintage finds, and more

  • Paints & Tools: Lightly used brushes, pastels, palettes, and more

Everything is donated or resold by community members—so you're not just shopping, you're supporting a circular economy for creatives.

Why Shop Secondhand for Craft Supplies?

There are a few reasons craft thrift stores are a favorite among creatives:

🌎 Eco-Friendly: Shopping secondhand keeps usable supplies out of the landfill and reduces demand for new materials.

💸 Budget-Friendly: Supplies are often discounted far below retail price, making it easier to experiment without breaking the bank.

🎨 One-of-a-Kind Finds: You’re more likely to find rare, discontinued, or unexpected materials that give your work character.

👯 Community-Powered: Every purchase supports a community of artists, makers, and creative reuse champions.
