A great place to find materials if you are an artist, crafter or maker of any kind. The shop is very well organized. This is a place to get inspired and find a good deal.
Made a quick stop while in Philly. The place is huge, with lots of art supplies and other goodies. It’s perfect if you enjoy a scavenger hunt 😁
I love resource exchange! From someone who loves crafts, sustainability, and thrifting, this really is such a wonderful concept. They have everything you could imagine from stamps, beads, needles, thread, paint, pens, you name it, they have it. Highly recommend checking it out!
The perfect place for treasure hunting crafters. I love checking out the inventory to see what is available, and I never leave empty-handed. The supplies are well organized by category, and the employees are friendly and helpful.
Way over priced!! I went in recently to check out the fabric and yarn, and was surprised by how expensive the prices were for second hand materials. The rolls of fabric were selling by the yard what I’ve been able to get them for by the entire roll at other second hand stores that sell craft supplies. The yarn was even more ridiculous. Found a skein of Lily sugar’n cream priced for $4 (and a partially used one for $3), I could buy a brand new skein for $3.49 on their website right now. Whoever is pricing these needs to actually do some research on what they’re pricing. Also have only two stars for false advertising. They made an Instagram post that their yarn was selling between 25¢ and $25, but a number of the *used* yarns were priced upwards of $30-35. Editing to add: The Lily sugar’n cream yarn is literally on the Yarnspirations website. Full price $3.49. Are you saying that since the specific color you had was not currently in stock it’s ok to up-charge your customers? I’ve added a photo from their website since you were somehow incapable of finding it. Yarn is notoriously overpriced on Amazon, you shouldn’t use it as a reference for your business’ prices. Second edit: Yarnspirations is the manufacturer for the Lily sugar n' cream yarn. They are as legit as you can get ordering directly from the company. They also have a free shipping minimums and multiple free shipping days throughout the year. You shouldn't hike up your prices to include shipping costs, that's disgusting. People can also buy the same yarn at Michael's for a similar price with no shipping just with a different label on it. You can choose to use Amazon prices after you'e been told by someone who buys a lot of yarn and is familiar with the price of it that they 9 times out of 10 also jack up their prices above face value. That doesn't reflect well on you or your company, but so be it. My problem with you is that you're selling a used item for more than face value, thats bad business practice and leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. I will never return because of how you've continually responded to me here and I will tell all my diy and crafty friends to never come too.
