Craft Supply Swap Season is here!
What we need already exists; there's enough to share. We believe in the power of community resources and collective creativity.
Connect our community of artists, teachers, hobbyists, and makers by giving new life to your unused creative supplies. Your donation of unused materials gives our community access to affordable, inspiring materials and a place to gather. Turn your stash into our community's next masterpiece!
We're starting by accepting specific categories of creative supplies so that we can make good use of them. We package them into kits and workshops to make starting (or finishing!) your next project easy.
We’d love to share more about people’s collections and how they’ve learned to do things - while you are still crafting or after someone has passed.
Have deadstock or bulk materials? We have people who want to use them! We love to collaborate with manufacturers and makers to keep materials out of landfills, including equipment.
We believe in the power of community resources and collective creativity. Through swaps, a community shop, and events, Creative Reuse Montana models abundance, sustainability, and creativity while keeping materials out of landfills. We help your supplies get to their next home, package them into kits and workshops, and make materials available to our community especially over the long winter months. We make it easy to start or finish a project - on your own or with someone! We host workshops and socials so you can meet a new creative friend.
We are community-driven, supported by volunteers, and fueled by donations of all kinds. We are just getting started! Donate online, Venmo us, stop in the shop, or mail a check to Creative Reuse Montana, 129 S. Main St., Livingston, MT 59047! Thank you for supporting this community resource!
