Hobby Lobby

I am a hobby person, but will shop elsewhere. Their customer service is deplorable, selection is slight, they’ll tell you they have something in stock, and will not have anything like it in the store. Plus, if I may get on a bit of a political stand, I will not shop at a store that does not support women’s rights.

Hobby snobby, I used to be a big fan of this place. I could just get lost in the isles with all my creative ideas, but the last time I was here it was absolutely insane.
I just wanted to go down one isle to get some yarn. This was made impossible by the staff taking inventory. I literally couldn’t fit in the isle. I mentioned to the workers on the end of the isles that I would like to shop in this isle for a moment and I wasn’t even given eye contact. I know they weren’t deaf because one of them yelled price check and a manager came running.
I just wish they paid the same attention to their customers. Needless to say I will be shopping at Joanne’s from now on. It only takes once for me. They acted like my money didn’t matter. Shopping should never be this painful. Hobby lobby can get out of my life!!!

More Guy stuff than you think!
Posters, metal signs, hot rod & motorcycle
Memorabilia. Tons of cool stuff for fixing up a garage or mancave. Board games & puzzles for relaxing entertainment.
I’m not afraid to say…
I’ve been shopping Hobby Lobby for 16 yrs now, always find something cool.
Pimping my new djembe bag with steel studs, iron on monograms, and other cool personalized deco.
I dare ya to make fun of it…

I love hobbies, but I hate Hobby Lobby on Breckenridge Lane! It has the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. I like the one in Clarksville much more. I took the Wilton cake decorating classes at the one in Clarksville and advise any Louisville cakers or crafters to drive across the bridge for your supplies, unless you like being treated terribly. The bad experience at this location made me hesitant to go to any Hobby Lobby’s in the future.
On my last visit to the Breckenridge Lane store (and by last I mean literally the last time I ever go there) I had a few different projects I needed supplies for. I went armed with my coupons and was looking forward to the sewing and crafting ahead of me. That excitement turned to disappointed very quickly. The first employee I asked for felt pointed in the general direction and said, «It’s somewhere over there.» Ok… I asked her where specifically and she said, «I don’t know. Just look around.» Really? She should have offered to come with me and help me find it so in the future she could know where it was. The second offense came from an extremely rude employee in the fabric department. I went to the cutting counter at the same time another customer approached with a large tapestry. There were two employees working one employee gave me a nasty look and told me the woman with the tapestry was first and I’d have to wait. No problem. I could wait. My mom was also waiting to have fabric cut. The other employee said she’d cut the fabric for my mom. By this time another customer came and stood behind me in line. The woman with the tapestry was finished, so I went to get my fabric cut with the rude employee. She informed me I’d have to «Wait my turn» (even though I had patiently waited the whole time) because the woman behind me in line was next. I told her I’d let the employee who was assisting my mom cut my fabric because she didn’t have such a terrible attitude and she rolled her eyes at me. I wish I’d gotten their names. This is my first negative review on Unilocal,but it was the worst I’ve ever been treated in a store.
When we went to the checkout the lines were extremely long in the few lanes they had open. When it was finally our turn the manager came over and told our cashier to go on break and told us we’d have to wait just a little longer while they swapped out the drawer. It was the final nail in the coffin for me. I will not go back to this location. I’ll save my coupons and go to Joann’s! They honor all of Hobby Lobby’s coupons and they are open on Sundays!

Hobby Lobby is THE BEST STORE for everything from crafts, yarns, threads, jewelry supplies, silk flowers, premade silk arrangements, picture framing, seasonal knick knacks. And their fabric department is great for seasonal cotton prints, quilting suppies, decorator fabrics, fleece… just to name a few. Also great selection of seasonal yard items, door wreaths, card making supplies and every type of candle and candle accessory you can imagine.
Uslally in the Sunday newspaper they have a 40% off coupon but you can also go to their website and print it out.
If you’ve never been in a Hobby Lobby store you have th check it out. It can be a vary addicting experience!

This is my first line of defense when I am planning a craft project.
Or need something framed.
Or need some wall art.
Again, it is a place I have an incredibly difficult time finding anyone to help me, should I need help. And one can easily become overwhelmed by the vast amount of stuff that is on display. But you can probably find what you are looking for here.
I’ve gotten several posters and prints framed here and they all came out lovely. There is usually a «special» on custom framing.

Why has it taken me so long to shop at Hobby Lobby? I’m a fan of arts and craft stores and thought I had been to all the local stores. Boy, had I missed the boat! This store has absolutely everything an artist, crafter, or creative person could want.
Prices are good, selection is fantastic and to top it all off they run a weekly ad in the Courier-​Journal newspaper that has a 40% off coupon for one regular priced item. In my case I had picked up mostly sale or discounted items but I can always find one more thing at regular price to add to my collection of supplies at home.
Needless to say I’ll be back.

If you are crafty, you will love the HobbLobbs. They have everything your crafty little heart could ask for. I found tons of décor that I used for my vintage themed wedding last year and the sales are always good & plentiful. Keep an eye out for the fairly large clearance sections throughout the store — they mark stuff down pretty quickly. They also have a great fabric selection that’s a bit cheaper than the local fabric stores.
My very favorite thing about the HobbLobbs is that they will allow you to use the 40% off of one item coupon if you show it to them on your phone. Go to their website, pull the coupon up & BAM… 40% off. That’s crazy convenient for me since I always forget to print the paper version before I go.

I spend waaay too much time and money at stores like this for my different art and creative projects. The stores are always clean, a great selection (in arts, crafts, photography supplies) basically if you go into the store I am familiar with the back wall and right-​hand corner.
Sorry, they have many other departments but I never shop in those.
Anytime you go, of you have a smart phone you can go to
and show them their weekly coupon — normally 40% off one regular priced item and they will honor it. Side note, if you ate buying a few more expensive items you can check out with your coupon, take out your item and come back in and use it again (only on smart phone coupons) if you print from a pc/​Mac they will keep it and you need to print more than one. They will allow you to use as many as you want but they do require you to take your purchase outside and return (without it) to use another coupon. 40% makes it worth it though of you have an expensive hobby (or three) like me. Enjoy. Oh, the 40% coupon is off regular price, not valid on sales.
I will say one thing negative. They make returns too difficult. For example (Very true, and frustrating) — returning an unopened item for about $ 5 WITH receipt that I paid cash for. Had to show ID, fill out several lines on a form and had to wait for a managers approval. Are you kidding me? I could see other return scene rips being more complicated but that was a 10 minute ordeal for a $ 5 item with a cash receipt. Luckily I normally do not need to return items but if you might please keep your receipt.
