Where Our Rescued Treasures Come From

Giving New Life to Forgotten Things

At Made with Love Cards and Crafts, every rescued item has a story. We believe that beautiful things shouldn't go to waste — and that's why we go out of our way to find materials that others might overlook, giving them a second chance to bring joy.

Crow Recycling Scrapstore

One of our most treasured sources is Crow Recycling Scrapstore — a wonderful local gem that collects and rehomes all kinds of materials that would otherwise end up in landfill. From card and fabric to ribbons, embellishments and everything in between, you never quite know what you'll find — and that's exactly what makes it so magical.

But Crow Recycling Scrapstore is so much more than just a place to find craft supplies. It's also a vocational support centre, providing meaningful workplace experience and activities for people with additional needs. Our son volunteers there every week, and seeing the community spirit and the difference it makes to everyone involved is something that means the world to us.

When you buy from Made with Love, you're not just getting a handcrafted card or gift — you're supporting a small business that cares deeply about its community and the planet.

Other Sources

Alongside Crow Recycling Scrapstore, we also rescue materials from a wide variety of places — charity shops, local sales, and other community sources — always with an eye for quality and character. No two rescued finds are the same, which means no two of our makes are ever quite the same either.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us. 💚
