Hobby Lobby

the store has a lot of different supplies to offer, however, customer service is not offered. i usually find the items that i need by myself. when i do ask for help locating an item, a hobby lobby associate is hard to find. today was the best example of poor attitude. at check out, she had no greeting except to say my 40% off coupon was no good! the items are already on sale! wow that how you start off? the rest of the transaction was just as sharp. next time, i’ll go to michaels instead.

Holy bananas I could spend all day and all my money here. Whether you craft or just need home décor, this place is the holy grail. The staff is incredibly helpful!

I just had another great experience here at hobby lobby I was helped by a staff member named Aby c she was very nice and had a great attitude. This place is great

Walked in, amazed by all the options of items they carry. I absolutely love j wish I can buy it all. So cute, crafty and creative

I happened to be in the area for lunch and stopped in since for their semi annual sales. Huge store, very well stocked, endless selection. This is not a place to take your boyfriend or husband or even kids, I could spend hours here browsing.
Prices are great, they rotate weekly which items are half off that week and have additional sales up to 80% off twice a year as well.
I had a gift card and managed to get some great finds here for an excellent price.
Worth a stop, LOVE shopping here!

San Marcos has it’s 1^st Hobby Lobby. Yes, great variety of virtually every imaginable craft. What I object to is the gimmicky pricing.
Early in November the store shelves were filled with Christmas items & crafts. Signs were posted indicating 50% off all holiday items. I visited the store almost weekly & the 50% off signs never disappeared & I realized the Christmas items were never intended to sell for the full sticker price and the purpose of the 50% off signs was to give the illusion of vast savings for customers.
I will not be returning to a store that treats their customers as if they were brainless nitwits.

I seriously cannot believe HL is not open on Sunday’s !! Do you know how many people walk up to the door and turn around bc the doors are locked !? They are missing south business!
Great store but need to open on Sunday! Especially in December !!!

I’m not an artistic, creative or crafty person but I needed some things for my wedding so I decided to check this place out. Honestly, I have never heard of Hobby Lobby until today. I thought the only arts and crafts stores that existed were Michael’s and Jo-​Ann. This place is HUGE. It literally is the mecca for all those Pinterest and DIY lovers. I think I wasted a good hour in the home décor section and another hour in the scrapbook section. I’m not sure if they offer many sales but I came at a great time because everything I needed – particularly in the scrapbook department – was 50% off! I even found the same treasure chest that I bought from Etsy here and it was half the price! Albeit, the one I bought at Etsy was customized and fully decorated. Nonetheless, I am now a Hobby Lobby fan.

This store is HUGE… This store is every Pinterest lover, craft-​loving. DIY type of person store!..
Friendly staff.!! I’ll be coming back to make some DIY cat toys! haha

I should have checked the reviews first.
I called ahead to make sure they have a certain item, and they said they have three. I got there and there was NONE.
I usually go to Jo-​anns for my needs. I’d never been to Hobby Lobby and wanted to give them a try. Guess I shouldn’t have!

The attitude at this location is stank. The store is much smaller than the one on Edinger so they do not have the selection as that one does. The cashier had the worst attitude though so with just that reason alone, I’ll never visit this location and I’ve already told a handful of people not to as well.
All I have to say is, don’t be a Christian stereotype, please.

This used to be a Home Depot, and uses all of the sq. footage so you can imagine how immense this place is. I can’t imagine you going there not finding what you need for your hobby. This is the truth.
It is difficult to run down people to help you sometimes as majority are in the front by the cashiers. Service was great giving us discounts for signing up and finding coupon codes on our phone.
I bought a frame and returned it because it didn’t fit and the process was an easy in and out.
No matter what the season, this place has you covered!

Went looking for a Mirror for are living room
So many to choose could not decide so I went a different direction l love this store because it’s Christian and music when you shop and everyone is so nice I got 40 per cent off see you soon

Horrible customer service and of course we are never right, last time i come here. Staff is very unprofessional micheals is a step up and thats sad.

I’m not used to buying home décor at the same place I buy my yarn and other assorted arts and crafts supplies. That fact about Hobby Lobby is still weird to me, so my review just focuses on the arts and crafts supplies I shop for.
I am upcycling 3 old Ikea CD racks and needed some black and white graphics for the back. I thought maybe cardstock or scrapbooking paper might work, but I instead found some wrapping paper that would do the job. By the way, scrapbooking supplies are in the far back of the store on the right.
My second obsession is crochet so I’m always looking for good sales on yarn. It seems like most of the brands of yarn they carry are off brands and appear to be smaller skeins than average. That’s disappointing because then you are forced to buy more to complete whatever you’re working on. Yarn, of all things, is at the front of the store in the left corner.

This review is for the Hobby Lobby in Tustin, California, USA.
This is the second Hobby Lobby I have visited (Westminster location being the first one), and it is a new location, so this two factors come in play of this review, which will/​could change in future visits.
For those unfamiliar with these places, Hobby Lobby is the result of a Michael’s and a Kitsch store having a baby, a giant mutant baby that takes over humongous, warehouses size former businesses (Westminster used to be a Ralphs, this one an OSH). They offer everything craft related like Michael or Joann’s (X4), plus a plethora («uh, uh, you said ‘plethora’») of hipster/​religious/​testosterone fueled/​silly/​odd… stuff. Not my cuppa tea, but this is a review site, so…
Located on 17^th and Tustin, it can be reached via the 5, 22 and 55 Freeways. Plenty of parking on an area surrounded by eateries,… and that’s about the good part of it.
As compared with the Westminster location, this location is presently not cutting it. As with the first Hobby Lobby, we visited the location for some supplies and to show some friends the sheer size of one of these stores. It ended up in a game of «the bloody heck is this doing in this aisle?» (The Hulk vs the Blessed Virgin Mary was the winner) and «find any fracking thing we need» (we didn’t).
The explanation from what it seemed to be management was that they «recently opened up». Uh, no dice, I been to several openings, this was just plain FUBAR. Oh, and thanks for sending a «Come Visit Us!» pamphlet on late Saturday, and finding out that they are closed on Sundays (Check Wikipedia. It seems to be a Hobby Lobby thing).
* The Good: Plenty of parking space. A Shabu Shabu Bar, Carl’s Jr, Farmer Boys, Rubio’s, Which Wich, Ami Sushi, Benjie’s Deli, D.K. Donuts, Jerry’s Wood-​Fired Dogs, Starbucks, Knowlwood, Yogurtland, etc,… within the parking area or easy walking distance.
* The Meh: Not ready for prime time.
* The Bad: No, really. Not fricking ready for prime time.
Not recommendable at present time, unless you are training for a scavenger hunt event.

This was my first time at Hobby Lobby, and I will never look at Michael’s and Joann’s the same. OH MY GGGAAAWWWDDD. This place is amazing! Also, I had wonderful assistance at every section. For example, I went to get fabric, and the worker there was just the sweetest! She carried a conversation and was all smiles. When I go to Joann’s, it’s all strictly business and i get a couple of stares and that is it. Here, I felt like home.
THEN, I was looking for a particular item, and another worker came up to me and asked if I needed help. I asked her what i needed, and she ended up telling me there might be some in the back. She then offered to go to the back to get it for me and she did not give me any odd stares or «you’re going to make me walk over there» glance. She was extremely nice and told me which register she left it at.
THEN, I walked to the register. More smiles and friendly conversation. Hobby Lobby is now my #1 spot for crafts.

The best thing to happen to this shopping center! When I first walked in I was on brain overload from all the cute home décor and the great little furniture pieces. There was so much too look at! I can’t put in words what shopping Hobby Lobby is like, you must go experience it yourself if you haven’t been there yet. It’s so much fun. I lost track of time and spent almost two hours in just five aisles!
Hobby Lobby beats Michaels and sleepy Joann’s hands down.
Great staff! Cashier Brittney was very sweet. I have since been back to that store five times! Can’t get enough!

This place is gonna drain my wallet!
The location used to be a cool hardware store I would frequent so I was quite pleased to see a new business in its place, the hobby lobby.
The goods are mostly home goods, lots are antique and vintage inspired items. There are craft supplies, garden décor, as well I spotted fabrics and fake floral pieces.
Prices are reasonable and they have really good promotions periodically.
It’s worth checking out as there seems to be something for everyone at this gem of a store.
The only problem is it is within walking distance of where I live so I will have to use restraint!
Thanks for the read.

Wowza… the first thing I have to say about HL is that they need a new name! Yes, they have crafts/​hobby stuff but Iit sure seems like 75% of the store is home décor. Great prices and great selection of really cute things! I pretty much re-​did my entire patio with all kinds of cute stuff from there and all at great prices cuz they seem to constantly have sales of up to 50% off.
The staff seems to be very friendly and helpful. Parking is also easy with a huge parking lot.
TIP: They have a 40% off coupon on their app if the item you want isn’t on sale!
