Hobby Lobby Deal and Updates!

Hey gang! Hobby Lobby now sells fabric on their online site! And until Midnight (central) on Oct. 23rd they are having a special of 2.95 shipping on ALL orders! Wow! Check out their site for details. I looked at the fabric selection and it is pretty close to what is in the store, so that is another good resource for those of you without supply stores nearby!

Who's Your Fave Supplier?

Do you have a favorite supplier of all things handmade? We want to know! Of course if you want to keep it quiet, that's cool too, but a true supplyaholic shares their supply hoarding knowledge with others! :) So if you have a fave supplier of handmade/craft items, please let us know in the comments (if they're not already in our list on the sidebar) and we'll gladly add them.

Again, nope, we're not compensated in any way for listing these suppliers, we're just sharing resources!!
