Hobby Lobby

I like the store selection just fine. They have plenty of unique items for many projects. I like that you can use a 40% coupon from your phone to bring the price down to where something made in China is probably worth at a reasonable store profit. I am not at all impressed with the employees, and I did wait until I visited over a dozen times and have spent literally a couple grand in 12 months there. The framing manager is pretentious, reluctant to help. I gave her the benefit of the doubt approximately 3 times. Each time she succeeded with flying color to act bitchy/​snobby and to be hugely bothered by me as a serious customer. At every occasion I was very polite and planning to spend money (witch collectively goes to support her job) in which she does not seem to enjoy it much. Also I was shopping for gold paint for my picture frame in which she said not to get metallic only use acrylic paint. DUH gold paint is made from metalic. So I got the metallic/​acrylic and it looks fantastic! The point I am making, take advice from a real expert in which she apparently is not. Grumpy yes that she can do. I recommend Michaels over hobby lobby, but from time to time I will use this store for my personal convenience and just ignore the sorry service that they provide consitently. Update I was just told there is a Michaels here so I will gladly go there first.

I was in the need for some arts and crafts supplies to work on a homemade Christmas present for my family members, and I had heard great things about Hobby Lobby. This place is usually very busy, although I was able to find parking easily and navigate the store with no issues.
There’s no way you can shop at this store without finding something you’d need for the home or a cool project to work on. I was actually impressed with the selection of items– everything for arts and crafts to picture frames to some sweet metal tin signs I want to hang in my garage. I especially liked the model section, where they have everything you need to build model cars, ships, airplanes, etc… plus some cool projects for kids and young adults. The variety is amazing, and the prices are fairly cheap for most everything.
My only complaint is along the lines with everyone else– it is pretty hard to find exactly what you need if you don’t have the time to browse. The aisles aren’t numbered, and the store is MASSIVE, I spent quite a bit of time looking for exactly the item I was looking for, and there aren’t a whole lot of associates walking around to help. But I did enjoy the time I spent looking, I just walked each aisle and checked out the items and thought of some cool projects I could work on down the road.
Checkout was fairly quick, the associates working the front lane were friendly and helpful, and I felt like I got a great deal for the amount of money I paid. I left the store with everything I needed to finish my project, didn’t pay a lot, and left with a bunch of ideas of other things to do. Really enjoyed my experience here.
Going to leave the politics out of it, folks. I spent 8 years in the Marines to support the constitution and the belief that everyone is entitled to their opinion. I needed some crafts, so I shopped here. End of review.

Hobby Lobby is a corporate hypocrite. They have investments in birth control but don’t allow their employees access to it. Do not shop at Hobby Lobby until they denounce the Supreme Court and their stupid lawsuit.

Love this place. If you need to do a craft of any kind come here to get your supplies. They have nearly anything you could want. The only downside is aisles are not marked so you have to guess what is down one.
I love the fabric selection too-​one of the better ones I’ve seen. Plus they almost always have some on sale. Their selection of yarn is quite extensive as well.

Kind of disappointed in this place. Needed something custom framed and was told it was too large and no place could do it. Went to Michael’s and they did it no problem. Not much effort put into helping me out. Their loss.

Pros: Great sales, great selection, helpful staff.
Cons: It’s HUGE and hard to navigate with no aisle numbers (so if you’re looking for something and it’s in the «hobby section» you still have no idea where the hobby section is).
I also wish there were more fabric options (it’s geared towards quilters).

One of the best places to go to in St Augustine for arts & crafts. Very organize & clean compare to most places. If you like to save some money, make sure you check out their website since there are usually coupons. Unfortunately it can’t be combined with other discounts but it can help on a regular price item =) 40% off! All you need is the code. No printing necessary

They have everything except food. If you love crafts come here.
