Every year FabMo rescues approximately 70 tons of discontinued designer samples such as fabric, wallpaper, tile, and carpet and makes them available to the creative community for reuse. Goods are available at monthly Selection Events and Sales at our facility in Sunnyvale, and periodically at satellite events in Santa Cruz and elsewhere. In addition, we host meet-ups and workshops, where you can learn new skills and meet like-minded creators. You will also find us out in the community promoting creative reuse at events such as Earth Day, the San Mateo County Fair, Maker Faire, and more.
Have you ever thought about what happens to all those large and small samples that help you figure out the color of your couch or curtains, the wallpaper in your guest bedroom, or the tiles in your kitchen? Every week we collect samples from nearly 60 showrooms at the San Francisco Design Center. These are new, unused samples of exquisite textiles, leathers, wallpaper, tiles, carpets and more. Each week a team of volunteers sorts the materials, and organizes the fabric samples by size. It's a treat for the senses, with a dazzling array of color, pattern and texture.
Beautiful and functional things should not be in landfills. That's why FabMo exists - so that designer samples and surplus fabrics and notions can be made available for creative reuse. Now you can purchase some of FabMo's unique fabrics, tiles, wallpapers and more right here online. Quantities are limited and many items are unique. New items are added periodically, so check back frequently. Be sure to review Ordering from FabMo for important details on how to place and pick up your order.
