pretty dull art/craft supplies, not as full of innovation as I remembered and it's pricey

They carry items that Michael's and JoAnn's don't carry. So it is fun to shop there too. And they have the cutting area where you can do your own cutouts using their dies. I love that because don't have to buy any machines, dies, or software etc. especially if it is a one time thing.

This used to be a great budget-friendly option for us crafty moms and non-professional artists. However, prices jumped enormously in the last year or so, and this is no longer a valid option for craft materials for me. Michael's has better prices and better deals. HOWEVER, staff at Ben Franklin is always nice and helpful, which is an asset.

Give yourself plenty of time. There is so much to look at. It is fun to walk around and let the creative ideas take hold.

I love Ben Franklin and was very pleased to have the Groupon offer at a favorite store.
Colorful fabrics, strings of neon beads, and heaps of yarn of all textures adorn Ben Franklin Crafts and Frame Shop's sprawling, dazzlingly colored store, a family owned business for 39 years. Brimming with supplies for any project imaginable, Ben Franklin Crafts and Frame Shop outfits guests with rubber-stamping kits for custom-made stationary or sheets of chevron paper to decoupage ready-made frames. The friendly staff circulates the store, and, armed with creativity and know-how, assists guests as they try to pick out the proper washi tape.
