craft-store-discountsSince I love to scrapbook, stamp and paint (and do anything else creative), I find myself spending alot of money on supplies.

Scrapbook stores are great for browsing, but I really prefer the larger craft stores.

I especially like filling my shopping cart with all the supplies I need to do something new — a craft I’ve never done before.

I can deal with the cost of paper or a new paint color, but the larger items usually leave me at the checkout line with an upset stomach. My husband will be the first to tell you that I’ve tried every kind of craft there is, and sometimes (ok, most of the time) it doesn’t turn into a “passion” for me (example: watercolor painting).

There are a few ways to make the dent in your wallet a little easier to deal with.

 

Discount Craft Supplies

The largest craft stores all provide an easy way to save some money and buy craft supplies at a discount.

If you have an expensive item to buy, it’s well worth it to make a special trip… with a coupon in hand!

Here’s where to look for the best discounts and coupons on craft supplies…

 

Hobby Lobby almost always has a weekly coupon in the Sunday newspaper. As far as I can tell, it’s always 40% off one regularly priced item. You can also sign up for Hobby Lobby emails or go to their website and print the latest Hobby Lobby coupon to use in the store. You can only use one coupon per visit, but there’s nothing stopping you from printing off more than one and making several trips. Hobby Lobby has a great app for your phone as well.

 

JoAnn’s also has great coupons, but they usually come via email or direct mail. I’m signed up for the mail list and the email list, and it seems to me that I get more regular coupon offerings through email. If you would like to sign up, just go to JoAnn’s website and give them your email address. These are typically 40% or 50% off one regularly priced item. You can also download the JoAnn app on your phone for the most up-to-date coupons and sales.

 

Michaels also has a great mobile app, as well as an email list, and coupons in their sales fliers. Most Sundays you’ll find them in the local newspaper, but not every Sunday. Just keep an eye out. I think I’ll be using my next coupon on a Sizzix Die-Cutting Machine (… just don’t tell my husband).

Cardmaking is my jam! I enjoy using rubber stamps and scrapbooking materials to make my own homemade cards. I use Stampin' Up products for a lot of my cards.

About Us

SuzieI don't buy greeting cards or holiday cards anymore -- I make my own! I also do some rubber stamping and scrapbooking. But mostly I enjoy creating handmade, one-of-a-kind cards. I’ve been an avid crafter for most of my adult life. My crafting addiction started with cross-stitching, then moved on to wearable art, projects with painted wood, fabric crafts, and then paper crafts — which has transformed primarily into card making. I also make the occasional wreath, snowglobe, and other holiday crafts.

LynnetteI'm a lifelong scrapbooker who's been documenting every moment of my life in pictures... for decades! I currently have 171,285 photos saved in 6,034 albums online (backed up in 3 different locations). I switched from old-school photo corners and thick paper binders to archival quality tape and Creative Memories albums after college. To me, there is absolutely nothing better than preserving your life's memories in photographs... and scrapbooks! Then I added rubber stamping and cardmaking to my craft talents... followed by candle making, paper crafts, and other DIY projects. When I'm not crafting, you'll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).
