MSCs with shops for arts & craft store?

February 08, 2024 04:37PM
Hello! I'm curious if anyone knows of any MSCs with shops for arts & craft stores? I havent seen these types of shops, so wondering if they exist. I've caught the crafting bug so it would be awesome if I could buy supplies with a shop. Probably wishful thinking, but a shop similar to the home decor one from MarketForce would be my dream come true. I searched and didn’t see anything on this topic, so sorry if I missed it. Thanks for all the helpful tips and discussion on this forum!

I've seen a large arts and crafts store come up maybe once a quarter in Gigspot. I did it once, and was fairly simple for a flat fee of $30 if I remember right.

Blick Art used to be shopped, but I don't recall the MSC. I don't remember seeing them in a while, so I'm not sure if the MSC went defunct, they stopped their shopping program, or if it"s a MSC that I don't check that often.

I did Blick Art one time but the reimbursement was pretty low.

AC Moore used to be shopped, but hey of course went bankrupt. The Blick Arts ones never paid or reimbursed enough for me to do one, and I think they stopped once COVID began.

I did such shop for years and during pandemic fee was pretty good. I was able to pick shops twice per months when they were available. I did them even in NYC area. They have few store in afordable walking distance. But last time i did them was in July 2023. I wil lask scheduler if they going to offer them again.

All of the above--the MSC changed alphabet name and Blick shops stopped being offered.
ShopOMA you could do a shop for whatever business and earmark that payment to buy your art supplies?

At one time, there was a merchandising gig in a variety of stores. This included at least one arts/crafts/hobby chain.
