Major craft supply store in central MN closing
I just found out that the family-owned Crafts Direct in Waite Park, MN is closing it's doors. I have done business with them for decades and will be sorry to see them go. They carried large inventories in all types of arts and crafts, yarn and a large fabric section of quality fabrics at reasonable prices. Their paper crafting department was massive and diverse. If they didn't carry something, it probably wasn't available anywhere else either. It is a beautiful store with wonderful employees that are helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. It is going to be missed by all kinds of creative people who saw it as a destination shop and valuable supply source. Their sale starts next week.
