I usually find what I need, but if it is not the current holiday decor it can be a challenge to find. The sales they have are awesome. Our cashier we had was super!

A typical craft store

I build model cars and their selection of kits and paints is the worst I've ever seen. Paint section was pretty much empty and kits were scattered around with only 5 to choose from. Very disappointed. Will never go back

I can't help it, I love Michael's. Their craft prices can't be beat. Every year I try to buy my seasonal items other places, but frankly I just can't afford to. Michael's is cheaper by a landslide and has a much better variety than any other place in Alaska. I inevitably buy things I don't use, but even so I still save money.

Came here for a few photo frames. They seem to have the monopoly for a wide range of frames and colors. easy check out. I ended up spending enough money that I was emailed a $15 rewards gift card the next day. So naturally I went back and got some Halloween decor :) Always check the website for coupons before shopping. You can do this while in the check out line. They almost always have a 20% off coupon. Just show the cashier your phone.

My mother was the artsy craftsy person in our family. Yet, I'm not so sure she would have liked shopping here all that much. I say this only because the store looked to be about 2/3rds empty. But because this store is more spacious than the other store in Mountain View, it may have just seemed that way. I did not get the "Wow! Let's go shopping!" vibe at all. I just wanted to get in and get out. With the exception of Zoe who held guard on the front end check-out area, the rest of the employees I had encounters with were glum, to say the least. I had checked online for 6 to 8 hour long burning tealights, and found what I was looking for at Michael's, yet only at this store on Old Seward near Dimond, which is clear across town for me. And of course they were not very reasonably priced. They better be worth it. The candles that I had been buying for years at Fred's on Muldoon have completely changed and are now pitiful, with a price increase to boot. Zoe told me her name means "life" in Greek. She was very nice, and fun to talk to. Too bad she couldn't have breathed some of that life into this place, including the zombie-like employees who were lumbering around. And just in time for Halloween too! ;-)

They definitely have lots of crafting items if you're looking to make something you saw on Pinterest. Just didn't seem to have what I was looking for the last two times I came in. I get it- I was looking for something very specific: burlap ribbon with lace running through the middle. They had two options. I'm pretty sure I saw more at Walmart. Also 32oz mason jars (specifically tinted green- yes I know they're some sort of special edition)... they had clear ones but were much more expensive than Target. Lots to look at in every isle... if you're an actual artist (not the casual crafter like me) maybe this place would suit you better. I wish the checkout was more smooth. Always reconsidering if I even need what I came in for while waiting so long in line. Be careful of the goodies in the checkout area, you might spend more on those treats than on what you came in for.
