Michaels is a store where customers can find everything to create anything, with expansive assortments of popular art supplies, fabric, canvases, yarn, knitting and crochet supplies, frames, floral items, scrapbook materials, beads, jewelry kits, Cricuts, and craft machines. It is a place to party plan with ease, offering balloon inflation, party decorations, gift packaging, favors, tableware, and seasonal occasion decor, providing all party supplies in one place. The San Diego branch is arranged with seasonal items in front, frames and a custom framing department in back, and other craft supplies organized in-between. It generally has a good mix of holiday decorations and supplies, with decent selections of most craft basics, doing very well with artificial flowers and scrapbooking items. While it offers lots of different types of supplies, the selections for any one particular craft are not huge, with some areas like candy-making being limited. The store features plenty of glitter, picture frames, and decorations for whatever holiday is upcoming. Staff are generally friendly and helpful, with employees often going out of their way to assist customers, making experiences welcoming and kind. The custom framing department is noted for being super helpful. The store is located in a strip mall with plenty of easy parking and offers both shopping carts and baskets inside. For many, it is a nice local go-to place that meets most basic crafting needs, with the advice to always check for coupons to help with savings.
