At CT Hobby, we make and offer blanks, vinyl, heat presses, apparel, and crafting materials, and make every effort to offer quality products at the lowest prices available anywhere. We shop both local and online crafting stores and visit crafting communities like Gatlinburg, TN, Brown County, IN, and Etsy to ensure our products are tracking the latest design trends and remain price competitive. We subscribe to several template websites, pay royalties to top Designers, and purchase from Etsy and other design outlets to ensure we offer the cutest designs available. We also work individually with Crafters and end Customers to deliver custom designs such as nursery names, wedding and party gifts and monograms.
Wood Cutouts

Most of our wood cutouts and engravings are laser-based (“working light sabers”) cutting and engraving of wood, acrylic and sublimatable hardboard cutouts for wreaths, door hangers, signs, wedding items or project embellishments. We have several lasers, including one of the largest crafting lasers in the USA. We also offer repair parts and training for Ruida-based lasers, and spend significant time and effort moderating several laser groups on Facebook.
Vinyl and HTV

CT Hobby is an Authorized Reseller for Orafol and Stahls’ CAD-CUT adhesive vinyl and heat transfer vinyl products. We stock several product lines from both of these companies, including Oracal 651 vinyl and CAD-CUT UltraWeed, Puff, Glitter Flake, and Thermo-Film heat transfer vinyl used by organizations such as the NFL, Pro Baseball and the NHL. We also carry companies like Transfer Express for screen prints, UltraColor Express for DTF transfers, and can provide White Toner Transfers and sublimation transfers and blanks in-store. While these international companies have mandatory Minimum Advertised Price policies, our exclusive CT Hobby Vinyl Club members get even lower pricing than our competitors’ “sale” prices.
