One of the hardest things to deal with when being an artistic individual is the price of all the items needed to be crafty. Whether your craft is painting, drawing, or simply hot gluing, here are some ways to create without breaking the bank.
1.
Use Your Phone for More than Snapchat-ting:
If you own a smart phone utilize
all of its capabilities. Almost all craft stores nowadays have apps in the app
stores that allow you to have coupons and sale dates right at your fingertips. Coupons
may be available via email and newspapers, but when you are doing a last minute
paint or canvas run to the Hob Lob, you aren’t always going to remember to grab
the sale paper.

Shop Smart:
If you’re a beginner to the whole
arts and crafting universe, you really don’t have to spend the big bucks on
supplies. Canvases and paint alone can rack up the bill in .05 seconds. Don’t
worry, though, because all craft supplies do not have to come from Hobby Lobby
and Michaels. Ollie’s Bargain Outlet (located on West Evans Street here in
Florence) actually has canvases and varying art supplies for substantially
cheaper prices than other stores. The fact of the matter is knowing how to shop
smart when it comes to your art supplies. Not everyone can afford expensive
paint and pencils, but everyone does deserve to create.

budget, it’s time to go shopping so we can all start creating!
