Hobby Lobby

My husband tells me that I am obsessed with the store. I try to explain Hobby Lobby like this, «it’s like my Pinterest has come to life.» Maybe I’m obsessed, but it’s a healthy obsession – there’s such a thing, right? It is my one stop shop for almost everything – holiday decorations, picture frames, ideas/​inspirations, home decorating, sewing, crafting, party planning, etc. If I am looking for something and I don’t know where to find it I usually start at Hobby Lobby.
For their holiday items, usually a few weeks before the actual holiday the items will be 30% off. The week after items will be up to 80%. Who doesn’t love a sale?! Just stock up for next year.

Pretty good arts and crafts store. It puts Michael’s to shame in my opinion. They have ALMOST everything I need when I go in there. FYI, they don’t have cloth tablecloths. That is a necessity for me when throwing a party. Anyways, I get all my children’s art project stuff from here. The employees are pretty knowledgeable about where everything is as well. The framing department is lacking in my opinion. You have to wait to be serviced… FOREVER. It is the same thing with the checkout counter and the fabric department as well. The constant supposed sales they run cause people to go in there and buy everything under the sun. I also don’t like how they’re closed on Sundays. I like why they do it, but when I’m in need, it sucks!

Wow. Every Time I walk into this store I get both excited and a little anxious. There is just SO much crafts materials.
I went in today to find burlap by the yard and ribbon. I must have walked around the store 4 times– completely lost. Customer service here was not very good. I asked one worker where something was. «I don’t know. Go to framing, it’s crazy here– come back at 12 when more people get here». Although I appreciate his time, the extra attitude was not necessary.
I enjoy crafting, but until the CS improves, I may have to shop elsewhere.

«The Hobby-ist’s Mecca». Though I am not always thoroughly impressed by the customer service here, I am always able to find what I need and with ease. I don’t understand why craft stores always have the poorest customer service though. Whatever hobby you plan on taking up, this place will surely have what you need.
If you plan to go in and make a purchase, be sure to have your electronic coupon ready. Pull up their website and you can get a coupon for: «40% Off Coupon
One Regular Price Item». I always make it a habit to have this ready, when going there to shop.
The store is quite large and you can easily get stuck there for an hour or so looking at all the cool things they have. Ask for help, when you need it because there is a plethora of stuff! I went in a couple weeks ago looking for face paint… they had it, but I had a hard time locating on my own. My husband would hate to admit this, but he, too enjoys coming in here, especially with our daughter, to look for fun projects they can do together.
During the holidays, this place is packed. They have the most beautiful holiday décor, which is fairly priced.
You will always find something on sale, which I always love to see!

In connection with hobby lobby they sell products by a company called CREATIVE HANDS. 1.) we purchased items 2.) the products (foam markers) began to fade in color 2 hours after opening package and use. 3.) we go back to hobby lobby and they refuse exchange and they refuse refund. SUGGESTION: DO NOT purchase products you find within hobby lobby that have on the package «CREATIVE HANDS»

Anxiety attack inducing due to the sheer volume of stuff and lack of customer service. Hobbles are good to have, but this lobby Is a nightmare. The check out lines are always at least 4 deep and take forever!

Very helpful employees in the craft department always willing to help craft challenged folks like me.

This place is huge. There is so much you can do from reupholster a chair to make a bracelet. They also have board games, kids toys, seasonal decorations, furniture and so on. I usually try to stay away from places like this but I will admit deep down I liked it.

Had an absolute nightmare trying to have something framed. It took five attempts to get it right, during the last of which the artwork received a four inch scratch. For framing, go to Michaels – I only went to HL because it’s close to my house and boy do I regret it.

DANGER– please be ware!
Retail therapy… Don’t tell anyone. PLEEAASSEE.
This place could very well be my journey toward bankruptcy. I decorated an entire hotel for $ 5 with sales. I wish.
The only place where it’s XMAS all year. Ahhh! What ya waiting on?!?

By far the best Hobby Lobby in the area. Even with the horrible traffic on College I still choose to use this store vs other locations. Well stocked, kept clean, friendly staff. And as always no problem finding some fun project to work on.

Pretty cool craft store… ass-​load of items on Sale… excellent framing department…
I bought my brother-​in-​law, at a charity auction, a Bert Jones (The Ruston Rifle) LSU jersey and it needed to be framed… my sister took it here to make that happen and I happened to be along when it was time to pick it up… Damn they did one helluva bang up job on framing the jersey of one of the all time LSU legends!
Wasn’t really paying to much attention to my surroundings until we got to the check out and things slowed down, way down… behind a 75+ yoa lady that musta had 3 coupons! But the cashier NEVER lost her smile or her friendly attitude… gave me time to gawk at the prospective purchases of the lady behind us…
She had a killer coffee table, rustic looking, for dirt cheap… think the tag showed 40% off…
If you need anything crafty or some sweet home furnishings or yard or garden knick knacks give this place a look see… in addition to the great prices the selection is large enough that I’m sure you will find what you need or maybe just want…

I’ve shopped at this location for many years. I prefer the location on O’Neal Lane in Baton Rouge, but when they don’t have what I’m looking for or are out of stock, I will go to this location and they save my day! I would recommend they keep their store a little bit cleaner such as sweeping, putting things back on shelves where they go, organizing stock, removing damaged or empty packages from shelves, etc. The staff are friendly but I find them more friendly at the O’Neal location which is 1 reason that is my preferred location. They have ordered things they were out of for me before, which was nice. There needs to be more employees around to ask for help though. They lack in that area at both locations. Parking lot is well lit at this location (where it is not at the other location). Prices are very competitive with larger more well known national arts and crafts stores. With the nice service, I say that puts them above the rest. Keep up the good work Hobby Lobby!

This is a dangerous store for my best friend and I to be in. We use to shop til we dropped here. They have the cutest items I will usually see in any arts and crafts store. I usually try to catch wall stickers on 50% off.
They have almost everything I would love to put in my own home if I had one. From picture frames to storage units and more. I could literally spend hours browsing in each section. If I wasn’t on a budget, I would pick up almost everything I laid my eyes and hands on.
The picture frames often go on sale and boy do they have cute frames! My friend recently brought baskets to store stuff for 50% off original price. About 9 baskets for $ 75 bucks, whereas her mom was picking up a few baskets at TJ Maxx and Marshalls for almost $ 13+ bucks a piece.
They also sell small pieces of furniture in the front of the store like a small patio table with chairs and such. For people who love to sew, there’s a department to pick up fabrics and items to your hearts content. I love doodling so there’s an art area in the back with paper, pens and etc.
Just about anything you can think of that’s crafty it’s there! They also have a website you can check out if you want before going. Be forewarned. It’s deadly for all you creative people!

‘m very disturbed by Hobby Lobby’s lawsuit attempting to deny women access to some forms of birth control. I’m not shopping at Hobby Lobby until they drop this lawsuit, and I hope no one else will either. I guess they are fine with men having erectile dysfunction medication but they are not okay with women having birth control. No more Hobby Lobby for me!”

My review is for the gardening area. I went in looking for cheap clay pots for my new-​found hobby of growing plants. I didn’t find the exact thing I was looking for, but I did find clay pots that were not broken (unlike Walmart) and were correctly labeled with the price (unlike Walmart) and were on their correct place on the shelf (again, unlike Walmart!). What sweetened the deal for me was that the entire gardening section was half off. So I ended up getting six pots for $ 10. I think that’s a great deal. The store is pretty huge and they have a huge selection of faux flowers and plants. I wish there were more staff members around to answer questions etc. I’ll update this review when I visit the other sections of the store.

I’m not sure that I’ve been to a store with more grumpy unhelpful staff. The selection is overwhelming, and it’s hard to find things as the organization is not very clear. Hobby Lobby used to have quality supplies for creatives of all types, but it seems their stock has turned mostly to junky trinkets and gimmicky products for scrapbooking and diy craft trend followers.

Hobby’s and crafts aren’t really my thing, but I WAS able to get materials for a toga party. Half the store is 50% off one week then the other half the next. That means, if you want something and it’s not on sale, come back the next week and it will be on sale.
