Pittsburgh Center for Creative Reuse offers a wide array of affordable materials for sale in our non-profit retail shop.
Everyone is welcome in our shop, where you’ll find all kinds of interesting materials like art and craft supplies, fabric, yarn, picture frames, beads, office supplies, artwork, paper, design samples, and various odds and ends. Our inventory is based on business and individual donations, so it changes every day.
The shop is temporarily closed to the public. Please sign up for our newsletter (see below) for weekly updates. Also, check our Instagram or Facebook accounts to check out what’s new and tell us what you’re making. Photographs of recent additions and customer projects are frequently posted to our social media.
We accept both cash and credit (VISA, Discover, Mastercard, and AMEX).
IN-PERSON SHOPPING
As we move closer to fully re-opening, we are offering in-person shopping by appointment only. Each appointment is 45 minutes for up to two shoppers. Appointment slots are limited now, but we plan to offer more soon. You can sign up for an appointment here. A confirmation email with more information and instructions will be sent to you once your appointment has been approved.
SHOP ONLINE
Check out our online store, where you can browse hundreds of unique items from yarn, fabric, and sewing supplies, to hardware and home improvement items, to one-of-a-kind vintage treasures, and so much more! We are so excited to re-open our shop when it is totally safe to do so, but for now we are proud to offer our comprehensive online store as a temporary replacement.

Our Bulk Section is a unique part of our shop where you can fill up a small, medium, large bag (pictured below), or bulky bulk (it’s huge!) bag with all kinds of interesting materials for just $4, $6, $9, or $20.
