ReCreative Denver - Denver, Colorado

I adore this locally-owned, community-oriented, secondhand crafts store. They have everything from fabric to yarn to doll heads (could be good for your Halloween decorations). The store is a treasure trove and it’s always a pleasure to sift through their inventory. This store is a must visit when I drop by Santa Fe Dr for the monthly art walk. I highly recommend all artists and crafters pick up stuff here.

Great place to go for most crafts. Wear comfortable shoes so you can look through everything. I found a metal piece for a purse that I wanted to make for .50 that is way over priced on amazon. Patterns are on .25. I will check here before I buy new from now on.

What a lovely place with a great vibe! I have dropped off donations before, but I finally stepped foot into the store yesterday. I was impressed at how big it was and how well everything was organized! Chris was very kind and helpful and you can tell he takes a lot of pride in his store.

It's quite the hodgepodge of pretty much anything and everything craft-related you could imagine! I will definitely be back for supplies for my next project, and I'm tempted by their used sewing machines.

ReCreative is the home for reincarnated, misfit and cast off craft and art supplies. It’s a haven for any creative soul with vision and energy. The store is really well organized and it’s easy to find different categories of supplies. They carry supplies for soap making, beading and jewelry making, clay, fabrics and notions, and so much more! Upstairs there’s a vintage section with all sorts of unique finds. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, just ask the staff. They’re friendly and super helpful people. On this visit, I bought some paint brushes and a few tablets of paper plus a really cool new sponge. Can’t wait to return and see what’s new on the next visit!

This is a great place to shop gently used craft supplies. There is something for everyone. The prices are extremely fair.

Literally my dream store I had so much fun here! I was looking mainly for beads/old jewelry and was very pleased by the offerings. Thought the pricing was reasonable and reflected the varying value of the pieces as well (nicer metals being more expensive, for example).

Nice variety of crafting items, but they are all VERY expensive. Shoppers will get much better bargains by hitting up a couple of ARC stores. I was shocked to see things like old posters for $5 or bundles of 4 or 5 yards of very basic fabric for $40. The only things that actually seemed like 50% off retail were all very old or half used up. It would probably be cheaper and would definitely be more convenient to just go to Joanns (I go there a lot, just in case the store tries to say I don't know what retail prices are like.)

I visit creative reuse stores while traveling whenever and wherever I can and I volunteer at one as well. There are some good finds but the pricing was quite off. I read in one of the review responses that they aim to have it at 50% off retail, which seems expensive for a used item but also when I brought it to the attention of the cashier that some of the watercolors are priced nearly at the same price as new, I was told no, some places sell them at as high as $22. Umm, yeah, but some sell them for $12-14 & yours were marked at $10-11. I accepted the answer and didn’t end up buying them. A bit of a turn off and made me question if I wanted to buy the other great finds that I had.

I did get some great pigments, I paid higher price than I have at most creative reuse center even for those. Not sure if I would put it on my regular visit list.
