These two retailers are extremely hard to compare. One is the biggest in the world, while another is highly specialized niche chain in the US. However, when it comes to arts and crafts and seasonal decorations, the entire Hobby Lobby store can be compared to Walmart's dedicated departments just fine. It may not be apples to apples comparison, but we would like to look at the impression in general and how both stores differ or are similar.

As more and more states are entering shelter in place orders, only essential businesses are to remain open. In the eyes of the business owner every business is essential, but there has to be a line drawn somewhere.

Hobby Lobby and Michaels are very similar - they both sell arts and crafts supplies, seasonal decorations, paint and canvases, and stuff for scrapbooking and knitting. You can participate in various adults and kids classes and get plenty of DIY project ideas at both stores. Come Christmas, Easter, or Halloween, and you will find tons of decorations.
