  5. From where do crafters purchase? Most (85%) of crafters purchase craft supplies from a store or outlet, and 11% purchase crafting supplies online. Crafters were asked about spending amounts and sales channels for craft products and supplies purchased during the last month for each of the crafting categories they have participated in during the last year. Mail order and other sources are substantially smaller than conventional brick & mortars and online retail at 1% and 2% of reported spend, respectively.
