The Store

The Scrappy Elephant retail store is filled with reclaimed and reusable materials donated from businesses and individuals in and around the Charlottesville area. Whether you're a teacher, an artist, a crafter, a student, or a parent, you'll find supplies you need and supplies you never knew you needed. 

SOME THINGS YOU MIGHT FIND IN THE STORE:

• Yarn, fabric, and sewing notions

• Paper of all colors and sizes

• Specialty items donated by local businesses and manufacturers

• Colored pencils, markers, and pens

• Scrapbooking supplies (stamps, paper, tools, etc.)

• Greeting cards and gift wrap for every occasion

• Wood, metal, and plastic in a variety of shapes and sizes

  Our inventory changes constantly so you never know what you’re going to find! The hunt is part of the fun. 

  You’ll not only find unique items at affordable prices, but you can rest assured that by purchasing reuse materials rather than new (virgin) materials, you are doing Mother Earth a favor.  

  We also stock the store with a small selection of new drawing and painting materials from sustainable brands we love!

The Studio

Have fun. Make art. Feel good.

This room is filled with materials and examples to inspire creative freedom and fun.

We are a place where kids of all ages (adults, bring your friends and come craft!) can build, create and learn to become better stewards for our environment. The best part- we clean up the mess!

Available for individual studio time, birthday parties, and team-building sessions.

Bring your team to the Scrappy Elephant to build community and connections, improve communication, recognize strengths, and encourage creative thinking, all while reducing stress with art! You can book your team for an unguided or guided session. Great for:

• Staff Retreats

• Bachelorette/Bachelor Parties

• Gathering of Friends
