As bankrupt arts and crafts retailer Joann closes all of its roughly 800 stores nationwide, Pittsburghers won't be left in the lurch, thanks to a bevy of local businesses.
Between the lines: Most Joann locations, including about a dozen in the region, are holding clearance sales with initial discounts starting at up to 40% off store merchandise.
- The sale is expected to last until the end of May, or until supplies last.
Zoom in: Here are some local shops that specialize in all kinds of crafts, from sewing and quilting to knitting, painting and scrapbooking.
