About Us
If you’ve ever opened a box of crafts and thought, “These are going to fall apart,” or watched kids lose interest halfway through… you’re not alone. Late deliveries, confusing kits, and customer support that vanishes when you need help? Yeah—no thanks.
EconoCrafts exists to make arts & crafts programs simple to run, easy to budget for, and actually fun. We specialize in thoughtfully designed arts and crafts supplies and craft kits that work in real group settings—projects built for 20+ kids at once, not just one quiet afternoon at a kitchen table.
If you run a group program and need crafts that work for real people, real budgets, and real timelines—you’re in the right place.
We design and manufacture many of our own craft kits, which means thoughtful projects, consistent quality, and no random filler. Crafts kids actually enjoy—projects that feel fresh, engaging, and satisfying to finish.
Deadlines matter. We package orders carefully so supplies arrive clean, organized, and ready to use—and we work hard to ship quickly so you’re not scrambling before the next activity session.
You’ll get clear communication, friendly help, and guidance from people who understand programs. If something isn’t right, we make it right. No hoops. No hassle.
Thank you EconoCrafts!!! You have the best company ever and offer the best customer service!!! I’m always happy to place and receive an order!! The children are super excited with their crafts this year, and we were running out. Thanks for supplying us so quickly with the new merchandise!!

EconoCrafts wasn’t born in a boardroom—it was built from a real need. We saw educators and program leaders struggling with crafts that were too expensive, too complicated, or didn’t work in group settings.
So we decided to do things differently.
For generations, we’ve helped schools, after-schools, daycares, camps, and creative programs run successful arts & crafts activities with unique kits, dependable supplies, fast shipping, and excellent customer service—and we’re still just as passionate today.
The best crafts do more than “fill time.” They help kids grow—while having fun. Our projects are designed to support confidence and development in ways you can see in real time:
- Boost creativity and self-expression
- Improve fine motor skills
- Strengthen problem-solving
- Build self-esteem through finished projects
- Promote socialization and teamwork
We’re picky on purpose. Many of our items use smooth, easy-to-handle components designed for students of all ages and skill levels. Lots of projects can be assembled with minimal guidance—so you get less chaos and more “Hey, look, Ma! I made it!”
We support creativity at every stage of life—crafting young minds and keeping old ones creative. From pediatrics to geriatrics, we help programs of all kinds stay inspired.
- Schools and classrooms
- After-school programs
- Summer camps
- Recreation centers
- Nursing homes and senior programs
- Religious organizations
- Community groups of all sizes
- Libraries
- Parents and families
We’re not a faceless warehouse or a one-size-fits-all supplier.
