The selection is amazing, with tons of brands, colors, and styles to choose from, whether you're looking for fabric, paints, or seasonal decorations. I especially love browsing the beading and cording section since there are so many colors and styles to work with for different projects. Prices are great, especially with their regular sales, so it always feels like you're getting a good deal. Between the size of the store and the range of options, this is one of my favorite places to stock up on supplies and get inspired for new projects.

I've worked at a hobby lobby before in San Antonio and any time a line got long they quickly brought people to the front and the issue was solved. This one is either severely understaffed or they don't care about their employees. Prices are great as always, but help out your staff please. Especially when it seems like nothing is being restocked or no isles are being rearranged for a new holiday. Still spent so much money. Would get a credit card with them if they had one.

Here's the tl;dr version:…read more -- Cool local art for purchase -- Supplies for urban artists (or amateurs who are headed over to the Hope Gallery) -- Unique souvenirs for Austin visitors -- #ATXFreeArtFriday Co-founded by a UTexas alumna Molly Maroney and another local artist known as Mouf in 2013, SprATX is a street art startup artist collective, gallery, & supply store, with this brick & mortar location opening in January 2014. Inside, you'll find spray paint, paint markers, stickers, prints, and cool urban apparel for purchase, all of which features the work of our local Austin street artists and often has a motivational, "Keep Austin Weird," or "Austin Pride" kind of message. Chances are that if you have noticed any impressive new mural or live street art event around town (such as at the X Games, ACL Fest, SXSW, FunFunFun Fest, East Austin Studio Tour, or the Long Center lawn) over the past 4 years, SprATX was involved. Their artists have also done work for most of the Alamo Drafthouse locations and numerous corporate clients around the city. As if that weren't cool enough, SprATX is also the creator of #ATXFreeArtFriday https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/atxfreeartfriday/, a weekly art scavenger hunt in which artists of all levels (from hobbiests to professionals) hide their work (stickers, canvases, screenprints, sculptures, textiles, anything goes) throughout the city. The artist posts clues on Instagram and waits for a lucky treasure hunter to find the stash. The finders post their "I found it!" reactions online, tag the artist and #ATXFreeArtFriday, and the cycle continues. Follow @atxfaf_official and the hashtag on Instagram if you want to join the game. The diverse 30+ member collective includes amazing local street scene artists like ZUZU, Roshi K, G52, Truth, Lucas Aoki, and Drib, whose works you've likely viewed all over town. The collective also serves as an incubator for talent around the country through their Artist Exchange Program, which pairs artists from Austin and other cities to co-create murals which are then created and revealed in the partner artist's city. I just love supporting a local business that fosters community involvement and puts beauty into the world. Closed on Wednesdays; otherwise open 12:30-7:30p daily.

Gibson St. is one of two artisan-ONLY markets in the entire city: if it was made in China, then the artist is also Chinese. Great food, great people, great craftsmanship and selection. Better pricing than a department store, especially when you consider you're getting a ONE OF KIND creation, and most artists will customize on the spot for you at no added charge, if they can (depends on their art; some just can't)... Get THAT kind of service at Walmart! I am proud of the people I work with: all do great handmade and Austin-only goods! Fantastic tourist hit-it; you'll get nothing more authentically Austin than here. I've been in four other city markets, and this one has the best selection, artists, food, pricing, everything! See for yourself: that's free.
