Since Joann’s might be going under

2025/1/18 Edited to

... Read moreAs Joann’s might be closing for good, it's essential for crafting enthusiasts to know where to find affordable yarn options. Many online retailers offer a wide variety of yarn and supplies at competitive prices. For instance, DROPS offers various yarn types, like their Muskat line, which is not only affordable but also known for its quality. Additionally, LindeHobby frequently has sales, providing discounts on brand-name yarns. Wool Warehouse is another popular choice, offering a diverse range of yarn coupled with sales and clearance sections that can help you stock up for all your crafting needs. Hobbii Yarns stands out with regular promotions and an extensive selection that caters to every type of fiber artist. Plus, they often have deals on summer yarn favorites, such as cotton blends. As these alternatives become increasingly crucial, knowing where to shop online can help you maintain your crafting passion without breaking the bank. Make sure to explore different retailers, looking for unique brands and deals that can keep your projects alive in the face of changing market dynamics.

I went into my local Joann’s this week to ask if they were closing. They let me know they are NOT closing - some locations are letting their leases expire bc they were too $$$ but will be opening in new nearby spaces. 🥰🥰

Bikini Boxes From Joann’s
I saw this and I thought it was so creative!! They had a whole display up with everything you need for a home made bikini box. This is such a good idea and could make people make them even if they weren’t thinking about it. I’m still debating if I should make one. Have you made a bikini box yet??
