Stocking Your Classroom: A Teacher's Bulk Craft Buying Guide

Teaching art or running a classroom project shouldn’t mean draining your personal budget on supplies. Hobby Lobby offers bulk buying options that stretch your classroom dollars further-here’s how to navigate them for maximum impact.

01

Pack Size & Unit Count

Bulk packs range from 24-count glue sticks to 1,000-count googly eyes. Match the count to your class size-buying a 500-pack of pipe cleaners for a 15-student homeschool group wastes storage space and budget.

02

Per-Unit Cost Breakdown

Divide the total pack price by item count. A $12.99 bag of 200 craft feathers runs about $0.06 each, but a $4.99 bag of 50 is $0.10 each. Bulk almost always wins on unit cost.

03

Washability & Non-Toxic Labels

For K-5 classrooms, prioritize washable tempera, non-toxic glue, and ASTM D-4236 certified materials. Hobby Lobby marks these clearly on packaging, but always double-check for younger age groups.

04

Storage & Shelf Life

Acrylic paints last 2-5 years sealed; liquid glue bottles can dry out within 6 months once opened. Buy only what you’ll use within one school year to avoid waste.

05

Project Versatility

Choose supplies that work across multiple projects-multi-surface acrylics, assorted-color cardstock, and flexible chenille stems adapt to holiday crafts, science fair displays, and art portfolios alike.

06

Shipping vs. In-Store Pickup

Hobby Lobby’s flat-rate shipping starts around $6.95 but free store pickup eliminates that fee entirely. For heavy bulk orders-like a case of 12 paint gallons-in-store pickup saves significant cost.

SEASONAL DECOR INSPIRATION

From Spring Wreaths to Christmas Magic

Hobby Lobby’s seasonal decor collection turns every holiday and season into a crafting opportunity. With a rotating selection of themed supplies, you can transform your home for Valentine’s Day, Easter, Fourth of July, fall harvest, and beyond without waiting months for inspiration to strike.

01

Early Seasonal Rollouts

Hobby Lobby puts out holiday merchandise weeks-sometimes months-before the actual date. You’ll find Halloween skeleton garlands in August and Christmas ribbon in September, giving you real time to plan, craft, and actually enjoy the process instead of scrambling.

02

Artificial Floral Stems for Every Season

The floral aisle carries over 200 varieties of artificial stems, from cherry blossoms and lavender sprigs for spring arrangements to frosted pine cones and holly branches for winter wreaths. Each stem is sold individually, so you mix and match without buying pre-made arrangements that never quite fit your vision.

03

Themed Wreath-Making Supplies

Grapevine bases, wire frames, foam forms, and seasonal ribbon rolls let you build wreaths from scratch for any occasion. Swap out summer seashell accents for autumn maple leaves using the same base wreath, cutting your yearly decor budget roughly in half.

04

Holiday-Specific Craft Kits

Pre-packaged kits for ornaments, table centerpieces, and mantel decor take the guesswork out of seasonal projects. Each kit includes materials and step-by-step instructions, which matters when you’re crafting with kids on a snowy December afternoon and need something that actually turns out cute.

Your Fabric-by-the-Yard Questions, Answered

Shopping for fabric online can feel tricky when you can’t touch the bolt. Here’s what you need to know about our Fabric Collection before starting your next quilting or apparel project.

01

What types of fabric are available in the Fabric Collection?

The Fabric Collection spans cotton quilting solids and prints, licensed character prints, fleece, flannel, burlap, muslin, satin, and broadcloth. Most bolts are 44 to 45 inches wide, though some specialty fabrics run wider. Inventory rotates frequently, so specific prints may come and go seasonally.

02

Can I buy less than a full yard of fabric?

Yes-fabric is sold by the yard with cuts starting at a minimum of one yard. Some stores will cut half-yard increments on request at the cutting table, though minimum-cut policies can vary by location. Call your local store ahead of time to confirm their cutting rules before making the trip.

03

Is the cotton fabric suitable for quilting projects?

Most of the 100-percent cotton prints and solids in the collection are designed with quilting in mind. They have a thread count and weave that hold up to piecing, pressing, and repeated washing. For apparel projects, the same cotton works well for lightweight shirts, summer dresses, and children’s clothing.

04

How should I pre-treat fabric before sewing?

Pre-washing cotton and cotton-blend fabrics is recommended to prevent shrinkage after your project is finished. Wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, tumble dry on low, and press with a steam iron. Fabrics like fleece and satin may not need pre-washing, so check the bolt end for care symbols or ask a team member at the cutting counter.

05

What quilting cotton weights and thread counts are typically stocked?

Quilting cottons generally fall in the 60 by 60 thread count range with a medium-weight hand that balances ease of cutting with durability through the quilting process. Some premium designer bolts may run slightly higher. The weight is light enough for piecing blocks but sturdy enough for quilts that see regular use and laundering.

06

Are there licensed or novelty prints available?

The Fabric Collection regularly carries licensed character prints featuring popular franchises alongside seasonal novelty designs-think holiday themes, sports motifs, and playful all-over patterns. Selection changes throughout the year, so checking back every few weeks is a good habit if you’re hunting for a specific print.
