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.

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.

Wow, take some time to dig through the bins, lots of hidden gems! Literally! I found great earrings. Surprised to see a lot of film equipment too. Excited to get better at sewing and coming to the free sewing times!

This is my favorite place in Denver, hands down. You never know what treasure you're going to find! The community is also so welcoming. It's a constant source of inspiration to me.

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.

AMAZING! If you are a teacher, crafter, artist, creative instructor, this place is a must stop if you are traveling or live in the Denver area! They have EVERYTHING from paint, brushes, photo equipment, canvas, tool, textiles, paper cutters, the list goes on and on! I’ll be back for sure!
