Hey everyone,

I have a toddler who loves to do arts and crafts but I am struggling to find anywhere that sells bottles of paints and bottles of pva glue etc. I am looking for a similar store to Hobbycraft in the UK.

Can anyone suggest a place for me to buy these things?

Thank you for your help!

Large branches of Migros (MMM) usually have a decent selection of craft supplies. I've also seen reasonably good craft departments in branches of Coop Bau & Hobby.

Have a look at your nearest IKEA, we have been very happy (and creative) with their art supplies. They are cheaper, too. I had to take in the frock for our toddler, it was too big, but cheap and practical. She paints every day and is totally hooked on their brushes, paints, crayons and their stand up board (paper, chalk, whipe up white board).

Thank you the replies. I have been impressed with IKEA too. I have the rolls of paper and lots of other arty stuff from their store too but I can't seem to find bottles of paints, glue etc. Has anyone found bottles of paint in IKEA, Migros or COOP?

They sell tubs of water color paints in our IKEA, they are the best. I used the little styrophone tray they originally come in to serve the little doses of paints to our kidddo. They also atest to be free of toxins.

In terms of glue, we use generic white glue, since she is not licking her fingers nor use her fingers at all while we glue things.

Thank you MusicChick.
I never seen tubs of paint in Ikea before but I ill have a good luck tonight. I'd say I missed seeing them as I as looking for bottles rather then tubs

Thanks again for all the very helpful replies!
