Bottom of the bin is such a cute little chaotic store! I heard about this local indie shop and had a spare moment close to closing time just to check it out.
It's sort of like the goodwill and used book store equivalent of crafting supplies... and at really dirt cheap prices. You can't come in with any expectation of what you're going to find. Overall they carry supplies for most crafting hobbies - yarn, fabric, stamps, paper, misc gadgets, cross stitch kits...
I grabbed a chunk of denim fabric for $3 that I haven't even unrolled to look at (it's just handy to always have extra for mockups), and I was super tempted with what appeared to be salvage sari trim, but many things are folded and put into plastic bags or on some sort of cardstock and it's very difficult to gauge yardage of anything. Everything is very clearly marked with a dirt cheap price tag (and some things at the front door having an additional buy one get one half off type promo).
The cashier was super nice and didn't rush out even though I finally walked out a couple minutes after closing. I have no idea what their trade in system is like but I would definitely consider dumping some of my excess materials here the next time I whittle my hoard down! read more
