More Alternatives to Hobby Lobby

tommyistoofastforthisshit

I noticed your link about alternative craft stores, and thought you might like to know there is also a creative reuse program that also supplies lots of the same stuff—-plus since it’s donated it is sold for cheap and environmentally friendly in that instead of going into landfills it’s being reused.

Here’s a link: http://www.lancastercreativereuse.org/directory-creative-reuse-centers.html

Thank you very much. I’ve tagged autostraddle in so hopefully they’ll signal boost this too.
