Treasure Cart

If you've visited our ReUSE Centre in Vancouver, you surely seen the big wooden cart (aka "Treasure Cart") filled with fabrics and other strange and wonderful things.

The fabrics on the Treasure Cart are special.

When we collect the fabric scraps and offcuts from our business partners (fashion designers and factories), we manually sort and choose which pieces we think can be reused by other creatives. It's slow and laborious work but it allows us to dream how these beautiful fabrics can be used by someone else, instead of becoming waste.

With time, we accumulated quite a lot of these beautiful fabrics and it's time to find them a new home.
