craft materials

Art project ingredients

Craft materials are supplies used for making things by hand—paper, glue, yarn, beads, fabric, paint, and the like.

The term usually implies hobbyist or children's projects rather than fine art: We need to pick up craft materials for the school project.

A craft materials store stocks everything from pipe cleaners to scrapbooking supplies.
