    What can I buy online?

    At present, you can only purchase HobbyCraft gift vouchers in £5 and £10 denominations from our web site. The minimum order value is £5 and the maximum order value is £200.

    We do not have plans to offer any of our other 32,000 in store products for sale on-line at the moment. However we are planning to open a number of new stores across the UK and will continue to review our on-line selling policy.
