Craft Supply Swap Drop-off
Are you a crafter who needs to reduce your stash of craft supplies? Or are you looking to start a new hobby but don't want to invest a ton of money? Come to our second Craft Supply Swap!
Donate your unwanted craft supplies at the Info Desk from Friday, February 6th through Friday, February 13th, then come "shop" the swap on Saturday, February 14th from 2-4 p.m. in the Johnson Community Room. Those who donate will receive an early bird ticket and will get the chance to shop the swap at 1:30. Don't have anything to donate? That's okay, you can still visit the swap starting at 2pm and find new-to-you supplies!
What can you donate? Yarn, paint, brushes, fabric, floral, craft papers, stickers, buttons, fabric, knitting needles and crochet hooks, markers and pens, ink, stamps and stamp pads, scrapbooking supplies, jewelry supplies, beads, sewing notions. If you can create with it and it’s in good, usable condition, it will be welcome at our swap. We ask that items be in good condition and to please bag/re-package any small items such as beads, buttons etc.
Any leftover supplies may be used by the library for programs or donated.
