DIY Bride

Hey DIYers!

I get a lot of “where can I buy…?” questions and I thought it’d be a great idea to put together a list of local crafty resources throughout the US. I’d love to get your input because, well, you know your city much better than I do!

What I’m looking for are stores, online shops, and classes where DIYers can buy supplies for making projects or to take lessons on how to make stuff (like learning Gocco or sewing classes for example).   Independently run, small businesses are most welcome as are small chains (like PaperSource).

What I’m NOT looking for are big box, mega stores (Wal-Mart, chain craft stores) and places that sell ready-made items. This is for supplies and classes only.

Have a fave place to buy crafty goodies? Let me know! Just send me an email through the contact form with:

• The name of the store
• Street address (include city & state, please)
• Website (if they have one)

Categories I’m interested in:

• Paper and cardstock
• Flowers and floral supplies
• Ribbon & embellishments
• Fabric and sewing
• Millinery supplies
• Jewelry, rhinestones, beading supplies
• General wedding / decor (like Jamali Gardens in NYC)
• General crafting (rubber stamps, craft tools, etc.)
• Fun places to take wedding related craft classes
