Hobby Shops
“Everything you could want for art supplies in Louisville, with some pretty niche selections too for a lot of things. And amazingly helpful and friendly staff. My favorite store in the city.”
“You can always count on Scale Reproductions for your r/c related needs. They have a very large selection of parts and upgrades, if they don't have it, most likely, no one does. Employees are top notch and extremely knowledgeable. If you haven't been to SR, you really need to check out!”
“CT hobby is an incredible shop! I have had vinyl cut for Easter baskets, wood cut for door hangers, and purchased ready to assemble kits for door hangers. They have so many in-house options or bring Carr your vision and watch him work his magic! Highly recommend.”
“This is the second time we came here. We came here today to grab our son a Minecraft Ender Dragon set. They let him have a mini figure since it was his birthday and we really appreciate that.”
“Best train store in town. They have almost everything you could possibly need for any gauge train. If by some chance they do not have it they will order for you. All of the staff is very helpful and knowledgeable and will give advise if asked. The only problem that I have noticed is that every time I go in there I almost always buy something.”
“We loved HobbyTown! The squishy selection is HUGE and the staff was so nice and helpful. My niece absolutely loved it and could’ve stayed in there forever. I’m not a squishy fan but it is cool how they let people try out and test squishys before purchasing (there’s a bowl up front with them) We’ll definitely be back when we visit KY again!”
“Took some prints in to be framed. Who knew? A line at the frame area? A Young associate(in training)?and Pam! The frame Master! Helped all the folks ahead of Me. Everyone left smiling! The line went quickly! Pam's knowledge of Her profession is impressive! She finds or designs a frame and matting to exactly what Your looking for. This is a real service Jem in the City!! Affordable! Work always looks great! Highly recommend this place for Your Home decor and framing needs!!”
“I’m begging you please do not change how you all operate. You have people with stores the size of a grocery store and they don’t even have dollar bins anymore. Hasn’t been here in months and I for sure will come back. Stuff for everyone and are very friendly. Not sure of the blonde lady’s name but she was very kind to me. Please DO NOT CHANGE!”
“I walked into this place today not knowing what to expect. I had several questions about a project I am working on and Mike greeted me at the door with his hands full. He dropped everything and gave me 100% of his attention. Not only did he answer all of my questions but he gave me some incredible advice that will end up saving me vast amounts of time. Without a doubt I will return to Woodcraft. I will recommend them to everyone I know.”
“I absolutely love this place! Being so close to home and having such a massive space dedicated to all kinds of hobbies somehow makes it feel like a second home.
Whether you’re a seamstress, a die-cast painter, a vinyl creator, or into anything in between, this spot has pretty much everything you need — all at fair and convenient prices. It’s been a lifesaver for me so many times when I needed something quick for my vinyl projects.
Creative haven, solid selection, and super reliable — really glad a place like this exists. 🎨🧵”
“Isaac was very helpful in the frame department. He gave us good directions and took the time to replace the glass in a photo frame we were going to purchase. Jacob was efficient and kind at the check out counter.”
“The crafting supplies are worth the journey alone...however I would like to see them stock some beefier gauge glue sticks because I have a big boy glue gun and the little glue sticks just don't do it. I need BIG GERTHY glue sticks but I take what I can get.”
“These guys are awesome! Amazing deals, super nice, patient with you if you have questions and they are very knowledgeable with coins, jewelry and paper currency! Im definitely going back. My number one store to shop from!!”
“Just putting it out there that I'm not a very crafty person, but my wife is. She does a lot of sewing and knitting, which is probably over 95% of the reasons I've ever gone to Michaels. I think I wandered into Michaels once to find some scissor or maybe a centering ruler, but there's never much of a reason for me to go in by myself.
It's not uncommon for us to make multiple trips to Michaels when my wife has a project going on. Thread. Binding. Fabric. This little doo-dad or that thingamajiggy. Michaels usually has what she needs to finish/enhance what she's working on.
The selection is usually pretty good and the staff is always helpful. There are more than a few times that some sections are pretty empty. At the same time, there are boxes laying around that, I assume, is newly received merchandise that has yet to be put out.
They recently installed self-checkouts at this location. I (me, Jim) is not a fan of self-checkout...and that's all I have to say about that.
If it's not in stock you can order what you need via the website and (I believe) have it shipped to the store.
The store is usually pretty tidy and well maintained and the staff is friendly and doesn't mind taking you to what you're looking for.”
“Im not one to post reviews but, I sold a handful of highly desired ultra modern baseball cards and got exactly what i expected. They gave me a fair price and i left completely satisfied.
I appreciate the great customer service and experience. I remember all of the smaller card shops in the 90s that faded away in Louisville over time, were lucky to have this business in our market for trading cards. It’s a unique experience”
“Michael's is a place I go for some of my beading projects. But I have noticed that they don't carry as many of their solid color strands, or tubes. But they are the only place I have been able to finds zodiac charms.”
“I came with a friend a really amazing selection of games, figurines and collectibles. Super friendly staff that helped me and my friend with our first ever MTG game. Can’t wait to go there again!”
