Stamp owner, Eric Stamp, is gearing up to open his newest shop, Camp Stamp, two doors down from his original store at 109 N.  College St. The store will sell recycled and upcycled products.

“One thing that will make us unique is that we don’t want to buy the stuff and have it shipped here. We want to make it or have local artists make it,” says Stamp.

Camp Stamp will sell T-shirts, handmade jewelry, buttons,  knitted hats and scarves as well as home décor such as bowls, posters, paintings , notebooks and prints.

Stamp said the idea for the store came from the recycled, upcycled stuff that they were making at Stamp already.

“This is just going to bring it on a larger scale and encourage others to make things as well,” says Stamp. “We just didn’t have the room in Stamp to sell everything we wanted to.”

The store already has some local artists products ready to sell but is encouraging anyone who has an idea to come out and show them what they’ve got.

“We really want to push not only ourselves creatively, but the Auburn community as well,” Stamp says.

Customers will also be able to make their own buttons, T-shirts or bags.

“We found these great screen prints that were left by the last owner of Stamp. They are really vintage; straight from the ‘60s and ‘70s,” says Stamp.

Customers will have a wide variety of T-shirt colors and bags to choose from. They will also sell vintage shirts that are from the original owner.

Camp Stamp customers will also be able to design custom shirts and have them printed on organic, recycled or vintage shirts in the store.

“The store will always be changing and evolving along with the artists and customers that come into it,” says Stamp. “You’ll never know what you are going to get.”
