Hobby Lobby officially open in Freehold, NJ
Like any former camp counselor or Girl Scout, I love a good craft. Pretty sure I could still work my way around some lanyard and make a nice box stitch.
That’s why I was excited to read last year that one of the more popular craft supply stores was going to open in my hometown of Freehold Township.

New Hobby Lobby open in the Freehold Mall
The store officially opened in mid-October.
Not to be confused with the Freehold Raceway Mall, this shopping complex is a different spot, slightly further north of iPlay America and the Freehold ShopRite on Route 9.
Hobby Lobby is known for its art supplies, seasonal decorations, beads & jewelry, yarn & needle art, scrapbook & paper crafts, fabrics, and home decor, among many other departments.
If you enjoy arts & crafts, it’s basically Heaven, offering over 70,000 items. You could get lost in there for hours.
