ButterStyle does not have a shop of its own just yet, but we are working towards that. In the meantime ButterStyle can refer you to the best craft supplies companies that are already out there.
Buying just the right products is essential to all art. Buying craft supplies that are wrong or low quality can create problems, make it harder for you, and in the end you work very hard and still not get the results you wanted. In this blog I will share my top 4 go-to places to get art supplies to try out.
Online companies:
Amazon
While many individuals feel that utilizing Amazon instead of other firms is unfair to the sellers and other businesses, it is important to keep in mind that the Amazon vendors choose to be there. And it is a great place to find very specific craft supplies for your projects. There are many well known brands on amazon and even if you don’t know a brand there are usually reviews you can look at that are good to be a deciding factor in whether to buy from that seller. Amazon also has many different options for most products so you can choose exactly the supplies you want.. Amazon is usually quite cost efficient as well, which is helpful when you are buying new products fairly often. Amazon
Arteza
Arteza actually started as a pencil company and now has quality art supplies for learning artists. Arteza has many different products for each style and technique of art. They are online so you can look at the great products and purchase them from your own home. It is a great place to find new types of art products for different art. Their products are also reasonably priced for what it is. Arteza produces helpful tutorials on the best ways to use their products. Arteza
In person stores:
Joann
Joanns has an online store but it can be better to go into the store for certain products. This store has great products, some of them are the yarn and beading sections, but the best section is the material section. For material it is a good idea to go to an in person store so you can feel the texture and weight of the material you are considering. There are many Joann stores in the US so hopefully you live close to one if you are wanting to shop there. Joann
Hobby Lobby
Hobby Lobby has stores located in almost every state in America. They have the supplies needed for basic arts and crafts. The products at Hobby Lobby are good for beginners to try out new styles of art. They have an online store as well so you don’t have to go into the store. Going to a physical store can be nice so you can take a closer look at the products, the downside is that you can’t look at reviews when in a store. Hobby Lobby has deals all the time which is perfect for trying out new products. Hobby Lobby
To create great art it is important to have great supplies to use. If you are just starting to learn to create art it can be hard to know what to buy. Much of the art supplies you need to start making art works for lots of different types of art so you don’t need separate supplies for all your different hobbies. You also don’t need the highest quality products when trying out new arts and crafts for the first time. The best way to go about building up your craft supplies is to start with just the bare essentials then find out what you liked about certain products.
