Favorite Craft Stores

Another topic to discuss is our favorite craft stores and why we like them! We buy from a handful of different stores which include Michael’s, Hobby Lobby, Pat Catan’s , Jo-Ann Fabrics, Hollo’s PaperCraft and Embellished Scrapbook Boutique. We decide where we go depending on what we need, location, sales going on and ‘ah, I just feel like going to this one today’. Hollo’s PaperCraft and Embellished Scrapbook Boutique are locally owned so we try to support them as much as possible for obvious reasons. Both can be found online with their location and supply information but you won’t get the full and exciting experience unless you visit their store. Our favorite aspects of Hollo’s PaperCraft are of course, their handmade paper we are always talking about and their insane amount of different sized envelopes. If you are interested in making your own wedding invitations, they also have a large selection. Embellished Scrapbook Boutique is as their name states. They a have large selection of ‘embellishments’ and just different supplies that are harder to find in a corporate owned store. They probably have the best customer service we have ever seen in our lives (seriously). They are that great. They also try to help out their customers by having a ‘garage sale’. Customers can bring in their supplies they haven’t used fully and sell it at reduced cost to other customers. Supplies can get very expensive so this is GREAT! Overall, having great craft stores is part of the experience of creating cards. Can’t tell you how many times we have gone to the store just to get ‘inspired’ and it works!
