Odds & Sods began in 2016 as a market stall selling bags of paper offcuts that a printer down the road was about to throw away. Ten years on it fills a whole shop, and it still runs on the same idea: good paper deserves a second go.
Printers, framers and design studios bring us their trimmings. Neighbours bring old magazines, maps and wallpaper books. We sort it all by colour, and it goes out again by the bag, as a zine on the shelf or as a picture on somebody's wall.
The back room is the bit we are proudest of: a free zine library, a long table and, every Thursday, a room full of people cutting things up.

I came in for a bag of paper and left with a zine about pigeons, two friends and a seat booked for Thursday. Every week, basically.
I had not made anything since school. Three months later my collages are framed in the hallway and my kids are jealous.
The library is the best free thing in Bristol. I have borrowed sixty zines and finally made one of my own.
