Michaels is a large craft supplies store with an expansive assortment of everything needed for creativity, including popular art supplies, fabric, canvases, yarn, knitting and crochet supplies, frames, floral, scrapbook materials, beads, and craft machines. It is a one-stop shop for party supplies, crafts, gifts, and decor for holidays and special moments. Reviews note the overall selection is good, with a love for the yarn collection, and customers can sometimes find items on sale. However, some customers express disappointment, feeling the store has become a shell of its former self. Criticisms include limited stock on certain common products, a somewhat disappointing and limited selection in areas like artist-level coloring supplies and picture frames, and a lack of specific items like polystyrene plasticard. The store is now minimally staffed and has moved entirely to self-checkout, which eliminates long lines but contributes to an overall disappointing experience for some.
