If you don't like their views...get over yourself and don't shop there. Go somewhere else. Go to Michael's. Use Amazon. Hobby Lobby is wonderful and I love all the decor and craft supplies you can get! Friendly people work here, too! read more

I used to love Hobby Lobby. I would go there regularly and poke around for things I couldn't find at Michaels. Then along came their opinion about women's health care. I have to admit. That was enough to make me stop shopping there, and I have. I refuse to support any business that feels like they have to get involved at that level, especially when it comes to denying women rights. I stopped back in recently because I needed a large sewing needle, and I just did't feel like making another trip somewhere. I was on the east side, and Hobby Lobby was there. The good news is they seem to have more employees available on the floor than they used to. The bad news is that you'll find an employee before you ever find what you're looking for. There are NO aisle markers at all to tell you what's in there. You might do a complete loop of the store and pass by the thing you're trying to find. So - 2 stars for ugly politics and -1 for no aisle signs. It's a craft store. Make some! read more

It's a great store for crafts in general. The place is massive. My only real complaint is that it's so large that sometimes it's hard to find things. But the place is chock full of things you never knew you wanted until you go. My only real advise is to look for coupons and sales. Some items are what I would call over priced and make sure to look everything over before taking it home. These items come from all over so you get a mixed bag. Sometimes there are imperfections that can compromise the item such as cracks or chips. read more

I always love any decorations from Hobby Lobby. I especially love buying my Christmas decorations there. The staff has always been helpful and friendly. read more

Although you can usually find what you're looking for, you can't always find someone to help you, if they even are familiar with what you want. The staff has became very unfriendly recently, and the management isn't any better. read more

I used to like going there, but because of my experience with their customer rep I am not likely to return. When I went to the register the clerk told me that she is taking the first people of the other register. So I went over there. Then three other people went to her register. I asked why they are being served she said she can't help but serve the people that line up at her register. When I asked why she sent me away, but not the others, she became more than unfriendly. I waited in line at the other register and when I got to the second clerk I asked her what was up and what exactly the house rules are. The other clerk then interfered and when I asked if she could explain her process to me, she became downright hostile and asked if she should call the manager. I said, yes, please do so. The manager said she was sorry, but never asked the clerk to explain any of her strange behavior. Now maybe the clerk wanted to serve a friend in my line, and if that was the case, she could have simply served me after that person. But she told me in no uncertain terms that I could not do what anyone else in the store could, and then covered her mistake by being defensive and hostile. Long story short--I know when I am not welcome and doubt I will ever go to Hobby Lobby again nor recommend the store to any of my crafting friends or colleagues. There is no reason for treating any customer like this. read more

I like going to Hobby Lobby because well...I have hobbies. Namely painting and models which they have plenty of at a great price. Also I can't believe how many other reviews on here focus on the fact that it's owned by Christians. It's not like they force you to read the bible and convert the second you enter the store. read more

I want to hate Hobby Lobby because of their Right Wing Religious activism, but if you want to do some sort of crafting, sewing, art projects, baking, framing, Christmas, beading, scrapbooking, painting...well...essentially anything creative...Hobby Lobby is hands down the best place to go. Their prices are dirt cheap too, so I imagine they also practice the good Christian principle of sweat-shop, third-world labor. This is a very morally conflicted four star rating. read more

After purchasing 3 shelving units from Hobby Lobby the other day, I decided to take two of them back. There was a pattern mind you, 2 matching shelves of metal, 2 matching shelves that were iron and 2 matching that were wooden. I decided to keep the wooden ones and take the other 2 back. So upon returning, the gal at the register stated that I was only returning 2 of the metal shelves and not 3 which was on the receipt. Silly me didn't notice that when I left the store that they overcharged me. I explained the above to the sweet cashier who then called the gal who rang me up the day before. MELISSA remembered (miraculously) that she rang up 3 metal shelves (LIE) and that I was wrong. Interesting huh? How the hell did she remember *that* of ALL the customers she waited on?? After that, I walked around the store to find MELISSA to make certain she knew that I had purchased a shelf for her that I DID NOT HAVE and that she should go ahead and grab it and take it home. Incredible. It was so nice of me to donate to Hobby Lobby. Not to mention MELISSA LIED. read more

Hobby Lobby is by far the best local place to go for almost every sort of craft stuff. (Their fabric selection is a little sparse, but they've got the basics.) Prices are great to begin with, and then they have crazy sales on a regular basis. Don't forget to print out the 40% off coupon that's nearly standard on their website -- although since nearly everything is always on sale anyway, you may have trouble finding a regular-priced thing to use it on. Like a previous reviewer mentioned, the religiosity is not subtle (there's a whole aisle of crosses!), but on the other hand, no one has ever actively tried to convert me while I was in there either. read more

I am so proud of Hobby Lobby, they stand up for what is right, and I love that. I also love that they will not stand back and let anyone tell them they can't run a business influenced by their beliefs. Thank God we still have companies that will not be bullied. If it were closer to me I would only go there for all my craft supplies. Keep up the Good work. read more

I am writing this regarding our experience at Hobby Lobby in Bloomington, IN store at 7:20 pm on 11/24/15. We tried to return some wooden letters we bought from the store several months ago. We were willing to receive store credit as refund. The cashier lady, Jacqualine, first told us that they did not carry those items in the store and when we insisted, she had to check it with the store manager, Josh Wood, who found out that those items were actually theirs. However, he insisted the items were not in good shape, which is a flat out lie. We did not do anything with those letters and all but one had the original stickers on them. We are by the way minority immigrants and the white American lady behind us in the line, who did not even have the original sticker on her item, did not have any trouble returning it. I believe they are being racist and discriminatory in their business. Shame on you Hobby Lobby. We are not coming back to your store again. read more
