Very busy store! Great Christmas clearance! Only have 4 stars because it took so long to check out and I would not have found the beads I was looking for if another kind shopper had not helped me!

The case that started it all. Canvas, stems and candles from HL too. I love how my mantel turned out. Thanks Hobby Lobby

Sometimes when you have bad experiences in a store you’re able to take a step back & see the situation from the other perspective. I’ve tried so hard to do this with my negative experience in this store & I simply cannot justify how I was treated.

I’ve always loved Hobby Lobby… I mean I’m a seamstress, but I also just love to craft & create in general. Furthermore, this has always been where I buy my home decor. So it is a kinda happy place for me. Sometimes I go there buy specific things, others just to have fun looking the crafting possibilities & home decor, but occasionally I go there to escape my negativity.

The last time I was at this store. It was to escape. I had just found out my mother had cancer & I had just brain surgery to remove a tumor that was unsuccessful.

So I was there to distract my mind, but also had the intention of buying a lot of seasonal stuff to make this year special for my family in case it was the last we all had together. I had been at the store for maybe one hour & 30 minutes when a male & female employee confronted me.

The man aggressively questioned me about what I was doing there & wanted to know exactly what I planned on buying. As I explained to him my situation & while I was there to buy stuff I was also to distract my mind & kill some time. The entire time I was talking the female employee with him giggled.

He then told me I had picked up a few items & I hadn’t placed items back in there proper location, but was even more concerned about how long I had been in the store. He said I had been there for much too long. I asked him if he thought I was stealing & I told him he was more than welcome to search me. He said he did not think that but, I needed to provide a better explanation for why I was in the store for so long.

After he said that to me I told him I worked retail for over 5 years & I would have never been allowed to a treat a customer the way he was treating me. In fact I would have been in trouble with my managers for treating a customer the way he was treating me. I asked to speak to a manager & she laughed at me too.

So I asked again do you guys think I’m stealing b/ if so please search me. She laughed & said that was unnecessary. Then I asked if they had a time limit for how long someone could be in the store & all 3 employees just kept laughing at me.

So I told them I would be leaving & not coming back. I mean I could literally hear them laughing at me as I left the store in tears. I couldn’t understand what I had done wrong & I was also couldn’t help but feel like the laughter was due to how the scars of my brain surgery left me looking. The 8 inch incision on my head, all the bone damage the left side of my face has, the bald spot from the hair they had to shave head, the droopiness in my eye from it being placed back correctly after having it removed from my skull to reach a tumor that couldn’t be even removed. It’s hard not to feel insecure about the way you look when that’s all you see when you look in the mirror… then having multiple people laugh at you for reasons you cannot understand b/ they refuse to explain themIt leaves you feeling like it must be b/ of how disfigured I look & they don’t want me here b/ of my appearance.

It is so funny that this “Christian” company who proudly & publicly embraces those values sees nothing wrong with their managers & employees laughing at a girl with a brain tumor who’s mother is dying from cancer when all she was trying to do was make the holidays special for her family & distract herself from of the negativity happening in her life for just a little awhile..

I cannot help but, wonder what Jesus would think about their behavior.

Great sales and found exactly what I needed. The cashier was super friendly and liked my decoration choices!

They took my temperature at Hobby Lobby and would not let me in. Not because I was sick but because I HAVE A FEVER FOR CRAFTING.

Supply chain issues seem to be affecting Hobby Lobby as well. Seasonal home decor is plentiful, but lots of out of stock artists items. Generally, a decent option, but I have found myself driving to Norman / Michael’s more often than before.

They always have the BEST decor! From hand made one of a kind beautiful items to rare, absolutely adorable items! If you don't have a hobby, you'll want one before you leave! ?

I've always loved Hobby Lobby since I love handcrafts of all kinds. It was so much better than Michaels or JoAnnes.
It is sad that currentowners have decided to diminish the "Hobby" part of their heritage in favor of going with more home accessories to become a home goods store.
Their yarn selection used to put everyone else to shame, but it's now only 1/3 the size. Embroidery, fabrics, artwork, & needlework, depts have all been reduced substantially to make room for Bed, Bath & Beyond type goods. Why didn't they just keep the BB&B stores as they were, and let us keep the HOBBY stores we loved and counted on?
Crafters across the country are so disappointed. Yes, we talk to each other and we are now hoping for another hobby store to take over this business. We don't want to shop online for things like yarn, fabric and needlecrafts. We need to feel the yarn, feel the fabrics, lay them side by side when putting together a project.
Hobby Lobby has forgotten who they are. And they have forgotten their customer base.
So very sad.

I went in for buckram and Teresa, who was working in fabrics at the time, was SO rude about it. She kept tilting her head like a dog and repeating “WHAT?!” and “I have NEVER heard of that,” even after I showed her the listing on HL’s website and offered to give her the SKU, to which she sneered, “Oh, that won’t help me.”

As she left to take a call, she very loudly stated, “Jesus CHRIST! I have to do EVERYTHING around here!”

I don’t know if she was having a bad day (which seemed to be the case for the entire staff, who all looked miserable), but needless to say I found my buckram elsewhere.
