Every great project starts with materials, and sometimes the best ones already exist.

Welcome to the Earth Warrior Upcycling & Maker Supplies collection, where fabrics, sewing supplies, and hardware get another chance to become something useful, beautiful, and entirely your own.

Through our textile recycling partnerships, we recover materials that still have plenty of life left in them. Fabrics, buttons, buckles, straps, and other useful components are sorted and redistributed so makers, sewists, artists, and upcyclers can put them to work in their own creative projects.

Whether you're repairing a favourite bag, sewing something from scratch, giving an old garment a new purpose, or experimenting with your next big idea, you'll find materials here that are ready for their next chapter.

Shop upcycling supplies and reclaimed materials, and see what you can make with what already exists.

Upcycling Supplies for Makers, Sewists & Creatives

Finding the right materials can make all the difference to a project. We bring together a changing selection of reclaimed fabrics, sewing hardware, and creative supplies recovered through our textile recycling work.

Explore the collection to find materials for projects such as:

• Sewing and bag making: Find useful hardware, straps, buckles, and fabrics for totes, backpacks, pouches, and other sewn creations.
• Clothing repair and upcycling: Give garments a new lease on life with materials for mending, altering, and creative redesign.
• DIY and handmade projects: Source components for accessories, home projects, craft work, and one-of-a-kind creations.
• Textile art and creative reuse: Experiment with reclaimed fabrics and unexpected materials that inspire you to try something different.
• Small businesses and independent makers: Discover alternative material sources for handmade products, prototypes, and small-batch production.

Our inventory changes as new materials become available, so you never quite know what you might find. That’s part of the fun of working with reclaimed supplies: the materials themselves can spark ideas you hadn't considered.

Reclaimed Fabrics, Sewing Hardware & More

From fabric to fasteners, useful materials come in all kinds of forms. Our maker supplies collection brings together redistributable materials recovered through our work with textile recycling partners.

Reclaimed fabric

Give existing textiles a new purpose in your sewing, quilting, bag-making, textile art, and DIY projects. Available fabrics and quantities vary, making this a great place to explore materials for creative reuse.

Sewing and bag-making hardware

Discover useful components such as buckles, buttons, straps, and other hardware when available. These small pieces can make a big difference when you're repairing something you already own or creating something entirely new.

DIY and upcycling materials

Looking for something a little different? Explore the supplies available for clothing alterations, handmade accessories, home projects, and other creative experiments. Our selection reflects the materials we recover and redistribute, so availability changes over time.

Check individual product listings for material details, measurements, quantities, condition, and intended uses.

Why Buy Upcycling Supplies from Earth Warrior?

At Earth Warrior, we believe textile waste is a resource in the wrong place.

Businesses often have leftover fabrics, surplus materials, and garment components that are no longer needed for their original purpose. Through our textile recycling partnerships, we help keep these materials in circulation and find opportunities for them to be used again.

Redistributing usable materials to makers is another way to keep valuable resources moving.

When you shop our upcycling supplies, you're choosing to work with materials that already exist. You're also supporting a small Canadian business that is building practical solutions to textile waste through recycling, reuse, and upcycling.

We love seeing what happens when someone looks at an existing material and imagines what it could become. A reclaimed fabric might become a bag. A buckle might help repair a well-loved backpack. A collection of leftover components might be exactly what a maker needs to bring an idea to life.

The possibilities depend on you.

Make Something New with Materials That Already Exist

You don't always need brand-new supplies to create something wonderful.

Sometimes a project begins with a fabric you've never worked with before. Sometimes it's a repair that keeps a favourite item in use for a few more years. And sometimes it's a box of reclaimed materials that inspires an idea you wouldn't have had otherwise.

Whether you're an experienced sewist, a small handmade-business owner, a DIY enthusiast, or someone just starting to explore upcycling, we invite you to see what our current collection has to offer.

Browse our reclaimed fabrics, sewing hardware, and maker supplies to find materials for your next project.

Your next creation could start with something that already exists.
