The Team
Who We Are
Debbie Scheunemann
Shop Owner and
The Curator of Creativity
Debbie is the passionate founder and owner of Cut the Scrap, your go-to destination for unique and affordable secondhand arts and crafts supplies. With a lifelong love for creative expression, Debbie envisioned a place where art materials could find a second life, inspiring makers while reducing waste.
Debbie curates a constantly evolving collection of pre-loved treasures—from vibrant fabric scraps and colorful yarns to gently used paints, brushes, and unique embellishments. Her mission with Cut the Scrap goes beyond just selling supplies; it's about fostering a community where resourceful crafting thrives, and where every discarded item has the potential to become part of a new masterpiece.
​
When she's not meticulously sorting donations or discovering hidden gems for the shop, Debbie loves to experiment with creative reuse projects herself, always finding new ways to "cut the scrap" and transform the ordinary into something extraordinary. She invites you to join the movement, explore the endless possibilities of secondhand supplies, and fuel your artistic journey responsibly.
