Tomorrow is our last day of final packing (it's taken ages!!) and we still have some amazing things that we found in boxes at the back, so if you're a creative or know someone that is, or work with nursery, schools, groups doing art/ crafts please come and take a look and gather some great bits tomorrow(Sun 10th) between 11am-12.30pm
We would much rather these materials go to a good home and inspire creative making

We have been given a few more days until the container will be moved!
Sooooooo - as many people couldn't make it during the week we will open up this SATURDAY 11.30-1.30pm
This time it really will be the last opportunity.....
Please note there are no fabrics left really but still threads, craft paper, drawing and painting bits, frames, beads, wool, haberdashery items, glass for stained glass work, books and some very odd bits and bobs :)

Colourful bits and pieces - we're here until 3.30 today.....

Wool, tiles, paper, craft materials, threads, bizarre and random bits and pieces!! We have all of this, so come along and have a rummage in these last days of the scrapstore!!

Tomorrow, 11-3.30pm and Sat 1-5pm - there will also be some shorter hours on Monday and Tuesday tbc.

We have had many messages expressing what a great resource the scrapstore is (and we agree! and it is sad that it this is the end)
so just in case anybody out there knows of a place that could house the scrapstore and be set up as a resource that could open more often - i.e a space big enough for lots of shelves so that materials and items could be displayed properly - let us know!!
(as the container is now going to be used at another project)
