Oklahoma City-based Hobby Lobby has plans to open a new location in Caruth Plaza. The shop will take over the old Bed Bath and Beyond, which closed in April of 2023. An opening date has not been announced.
Founded in the 1970s by David and Barbara Green, Hobby Lobby is a discount chain known for their home goods, holiday decorations, scrapbooking supplies, party goods and sewing needs. Today, it is the largest privately owned arts-and-crafts retailer in the world, operating in 48 states with more than 46,000 employees. Mardel Christian and Education Supply is an affiliate company. Due to the Green family’s Christian beliefs, Hobby Lobby remains closed on Sundays.
If you can’t wait for the new store to open, visit the nearest Hobby Lobby stores at 14858 Preston (at Belt Line), 900 W. 15th (at 75, in Plano) and 3178 Lavon (near Firewheel, in Garland). The new store will be at 8005 Park Lane (at 75).
