Michaels

I went into this location a few days ago. Initially the service was average, but then I asked for help with picking out an easel. I needed it to hold a sign for one of my business displays. An employee in the store sent Ted to help me. Ted was extremely patient and took about 15 – 20 mins to help me select the proper easel. He pulled 3 different units out of the boxes and answered all of my questions. I explained to him that money wasn’t an issue but that I needed to make sure that I left with the proper unit so I didn’t need to hassle with a return or exchange later on. Ted was extremely helpful and completely understood my needs. My experience went from average to great because of Ted. I will shop at this store again specifically because of his excellent service.

just went here a couple mins ago and the service was so bad im going to leave a review now. i was looking for my size shirt (XL) in yellow. they had every size but that size. so i asked this very tall girl (yes girl not woman) with blonde ends of her hair. i asked if they had any XL in the back or something. she immediately goes «uhhhhh» scans the shirt i brought to her. then she goes «no we dont have any actually. the shirt that your holding is the only size we have in that color» like i mentioned before they had all sizes but XL in this color. didnt even bother to asked another employee.

Michaels is a great store. They have tons of art and craft supplies. I went looking for twine and found gifts for my brother’s birthday. Candy too!
The staff directed me to the supplies I needed to find and were friendly at checkout. There are a few things they don’t have and the selection varies a little from store to store. I found that a little confusing. Other than that, it’s a good store.

I love Michael’s. Think I love Hobby Lobby a bit more because of their home décor section. But they normally have a 40% coupon if you have their app.

The staff here are so nice. I really like the staff at the framing department. I only wish they would lower their framing prices, because you have to wait for one their sales, which appears to be every other week. That is kind of silly.

Great selection at low low prices! I bought sooooo much stuff here today! The cashier (an older gentleman) was awesome, he actually suggested some canvas boards to me that I bought. Great suggestion!

I had a big frame project for my business open house. I expedited my order and the supplier fail to communicate the store that my frame choice was out of order. I was very concern and upset. The frame manager Tanya and Johnny called me in to choose another option. When I got here they were super helpful and shared my concern. They upgraded my frame ++all the services. Expedited my order to 2 days and now I’m devoted happy customer.

The store seemed untidy and in disarray
one around to assist you with questions or to direct you to locate items.

At the Natomas Michael’s, the floor guy sold me the wrong product and nearly ruined a $ 200 project. Called the store and talked to the assist manager (sierra) and she didn’t even apologize. When I asked why she didn’t even apologize, she just said, «I’m sorry you feel that way.»
I gave her a chance to make it right and she said she couldn’t (read here «wouldn’t). The store manager also said too bad.
I called this Michael’s and the store manager personally delivered the product to the store for me! Apparently, some Michael’s managers get it and some don’t! This one gets it!

It’s Michaels, so really what do you expect? I’ve learned not to expect the employees to be able to answer an art related question and most times they don’t know where specific items are located. This one isn’t too shabby though. Staff are friendly, and I got what I was looking for at a good price.

I use to shop at Michaels often because of the many craft ideas and coupons. However, this location has the worst customer service! The cashiers don’t know what is on sale, there is little floor staff, and once you hunt someone down its a 75% chance you’ll get adolescent attitude. There was one gentleman that was knowledgable and friendly. I’ve been loyal to Michaels but I think I’m going to move on to Hobby Lobby.

I shop here a lot so I don’t know why I haven’t written a review before. This place is perfect. They have anything and everything you need for arts and crafts along with plenty of holiday decorations and even unique stocking stuffer ideas. They always have a coupon on Shopular for 40% off just about any single item so that really comes in handy when you’re looking to make a bigger purchase here like self framing for example.
The staff is always so nice and crafty too so you can approach them about anything and they are usually always willing to help or find someone to help you.
The clearance is outstanding when it comes to holiday decorations, right now you can shop anything fall for 80% off!
Overall I will continue to spend hours in this store regularly because it is so fantastic!

I have bought most of my photo frames here. I love deals and from time to time there is a sale on frames (30% to 40% off). However, I like the buy one and get one free at equal or less price. There all this the mix or match sale. Good time to stock up.

I buy a lot of art supplies here — I would rather go to a real art-​supply shop, but the ones that exist in town close too early, or are frequently too expensive. So, about 60% of the time, I end up here.
The prices and hours are good, and the selection is good considering that the store doesn’t specialize in fine arts, but rather crafting and hobbies.
It’s hard to find someone to help you — if you have any questions, there is rarely anyone available to ask questions, but I suppose in that sense, you get what you pay for. That’s why it costs more to go to an actual art store? Either way… it’s ok for what it is.

GREAT place for all things craft. I feel like every time I go to Michaels they are having a massive sale on picture frames! Always 40−50% off I swear!
The only reason why I didn’t give Michaels 5 stars is because it’s a bit far from my house. obviously they can’t help that but it would be nice if there was one closer to Land Park. Just sayin!

Whenever you have a craft project to do (like for school), Michaels is the place to go. They have lots of options to piece together and create a very nice finished project.

This review is for the custom framing department.
After shopping around for having a piece of art framed I found a 50% coupon and thought «Why not give this place a try.»
I had previously gone to an art gallery and two art shops to get ideas and price quotes. The highest one being $ 250. – , the lowest $ 180. – .
When I came to Michaels the quote came to $ 482. – , with use of the coupon that ended up being $ 250.–
Really?
All quotes included three mats, frame and museum quality glass.
It appears that Michaels jacks their prices up, as in «waaay up» and then «discounts» with the coupon for those people who do not shop around.
I have always felt that Michaels was sort of a Walmart for the Hobby folks, kind of sloppy looking, I just thought I could get a good deal with the coupon, now I just feel it is a Rip off.
Don’t go there, you can and should do better than that.

Addiction…
In its finest form for those who consider themselves «crafty» in any way, shape or form… Similar to crack only legal so it’s even more dangerous…
I realized this Saturday that I have intentionally kept my distance from all Michaels craft stores for some time as I remembered loosing all control of my good senses and my pocketbook the last two times I was in one…
However down to the bare minimum in my jewelry making supplies aka: one of my hobbies that I do for myself, that it was time to venture out to one only this time I took my man along to act as the sounding voice of reason and guess what? IT WORKED!!!
Know how I know its a serious addiction? I caught myself snapping at not only my man but anyone who dared to interrupt my intense focus and concentration; not to be confused with obsessive fixation, on the items for which I was perusing, which looking back now is actually quite disturbing even if humorous in a twisted sort of way…
Here’s what I LOVE:
Damn near ANYTHING that you need/​hope/​want to find that is even remotely craft related you can score at Michaels… AND then some, which is what always gets me into hot water…
SOS buttons aka: HELP! I can’t blink as my eyes are dry from the immense selections and I can’t find what I really want and need BUTTONS, strategically located within the aisles of the store… Noticed these yesterday and for the first time and thought the invention to be genius as when you find yourself in a situation like this you don’t dare move from the area your in for fear of not being able to locate it again as the store is hypnotic and one easily becomes entranced & sidetracked… You simple press a button, stay put and await a Michaels associate to come to your rescue…
SALES & COUPONS: Michaels isn’t the most affordable and competitively priced store and I suspect they don’t have to be since to date they appear to have the market for craft supplies by the balls BUT they do have damn good coupons like the ones we used yesterday for 40% AND their already kick ass in-​store sale of 50% off of the pre-​strung beads by «Bead Gallery» which saved us more than the coupon we came in with…
VAST SELECTION: To date they have the largest selection of ANYTHING and everything craft related and I can’t even begin to break the items down but if you’ve shopped here you already know; if you haven’t you’ll have to see for yourself.
Here’s what I dislike:
Their coupons that they issue that day in the store after your purchase that DON’T“T start until at least a day if not MORE after the day you receive them. Bullshit is what it is and it makes no sense other than to hold you hostage so that you come back to use it… I find the tactic weak as a store shouldn’t have to dangle a future carrot for their consumers in order to get you back into the store… Poor form Michaels…
Other than that Michaels is what it is: A one stop shop for damn near ALL of your crafting/​do-​it-​yourself projects…
If you lack the self control to stick to your list pack a buddy to act as your sense of reason and preferably one who isn’t ‘crafty’ themselves or your both screwed… ;)

A good Michael’s but everything is pretty packed in here. It’s been hard for me to find what I was looking for. I don’t know, the store just seems to be organized oddly.
I like the holiday stuff, especially after the holiday has passed and we’re talking 70% (or more) off. Buy this year’s for next year at a discount ;)
The floral section is also impressive. Maybe just a little expensive so might want to do the math before check out to see if it’s worth using a coupon.
I also like looking through the section in the back-​think $ 1 stuff but more variety than the bins in the front that usually consist of thank you cards and sticky notes. I found cute little make-​it-​yourself animal kits.
Definitely sign up for the Michael’s Rewards. You get the card and emails with coupons. You can use the coupons right from your phone too, no need to print them out.
The lines get long. One time I had a few items but didn’t have time to wait in line, so I had to leave. I wish too the scrapbook paper would change out more often, it’s usually what I saw the last time I was here.

Lots of things, lots of selection, good price, but almost too hectic going inside the store!
