Do you have craft supplies laying around not getting any use? Trade them in for shop credits!

It's our goal over the next year to quit our day jobs and start sewing and creating full time, but supplies are expensive and it's hard to get started without them.

We're looking for:
~fabric
~outdated clothing or things with tears we can upcycle. Extra points for cool prints!
~yarn and strings
~glue, tape and resin
~paint and dye
~paintbrushes, clay tools, sponges etc.
~scissors, staple guns, dremels, sandpaper, and various tools.
~confetti, gems, anything shiny
~fringe, floral trims, and ribbons
~sewing supplies
~canvases
~wood
~old frames and furniture
~beads and jewelry making supplies
~crystals, gems and minerals
~decorative paper and scrapbooking supplies
~stamps and punches
~wire and pliers
~old desktops and printers in working condition
~stencils
~or anything you might have that we can use to create!

Feel free to message us if you have anything you think would be helpful.

Trade-ins can be used for custom projects as well. (An example of how much you get in return: 3 yards of nice fabric will get you around $15-25 to spend. Fur or decorative embroidered fabric will get you even more. A small box of beads would be around $5-$15 etc. which would be enough to get you smaller jewelry items or a set of fleece legwarmers)

There is just enough time before Christmas to take on a couple custom orders as well.πŸ’Ÿ

Sewed a scrunchy kitty hat with leftover fabric. 😻 The inside is lined with super soft, cozy velvet. This one is now with our good friend who recently moved to Colorado, but I really like this style and it's perfect for fabric scraps so there will be more coming soon!

Made this romantic as heck Valentines Day skirt recently. It cost almost nothing to make, but this tulle is so hard to work with when you're cutting out large pieces. It is almost invisible in one layer and clings to itself and every pet hair on the floor. Still turned oput lovely though!

Finally sewed my dream bellbottoms. I was so nervous to start these because I was making my own pattern and it is so easy to mess something up, but I took my time and they fit perfectly! Every time I sew something, I learn how to do something a little better and I am super pleased with how professional these turned out. Can't wait to wear them this weekend! 😁

Cute little charm made out of one of the many seashells I collected on Honeymoon Island, Florida. It was almost impossible to capture the iridescent patches on the shell, but I'm pretty sure they're all from magical mermaids collections.πŸ’–
