The Scrappy Elephant

Our mission is to provide all makers (regardless of age, race, gender, or creed) unique and reclaimed creative materials and creative experiences at affordable prices. The Scrappy Elephant serves the local community by sparking creativity and bringing joy to our customers, reducing waste to the landfill, and through our nonprofit rewards program. The Scrappy Elephant retail store is filled with reclaimed and reusable materials donated from businesses and individuals in and around the Charlottesville area and the studio is 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!
