Where to order art supplies for your next (quarantine) passion project | Lifestyle.INQ

OCTOBER 27, 2022

Without the long hours stuck in traffic after work, some of us have a few extra hours to try out a new hobby or work on some passion projects. While many have ventured into cooking and baking,  many are also turning to arts and crafts. For long-time artists, two months into quarantine may have caused their art materials to run out, while first-timers may not even have supplies to begin with. To fix that dilemma, these art supply stores have got you covered.
