Looking for discount craft or school supplies? Check out ArtStart’s ArtScraps Reuse Store in St. Paul for the best deals on gently used art supplies and more!
The first time my son and I stumbled upon the ArtStart ArtScraps Reuse Store I thought I had entered my personal heaven. It’s a magical store, filled with a completely random assortment of discount art supplies, treasures and more! You never know exactly what you will find, but you will find it at an amazing price!
The best part? ArtStart is a nonprofit and their store, ArtScraps, saves thousands of pounds of art waste and recycles it back into the community! So you are shopping for a great cause every time you come here and saving money.
The ArtScraps Reuse Store is filled to the brim with any and all craft supplies you need to make your next creation! The store is very organized and labeled, plus they have a lot of example projects on display if you need some inspiration. The staff members are very kind and willing to help with any questions every time we have visited the store.
ArtScraps is putting out all their back to school supplies now so it’s the perfect time to visit with your kids school supply lists. You can find many new or gently used items for way less than retail price. And maybe you can find a few other treasures for projects to work on when the kids go back to school? I know I will bring my own wishlist along too!
ArtScraps also accepts donations of materials. They are currently taking donation appointments 2-3 weeks out. You can see how to make your donation appointment and what donations they are accepting on their website.
ArtScraps is located at 1459 St. Clair Ave in St. Paul. They are currently open Thursdays and Fridays 10am – 6pm and Saturdays and Sundays 10am – 4pm.
