Michaels is a popular craft store offering a wide range of art supplies and craft materials, including fabric, canvases, yarn, knitting and crochet supplies, frames, floral items, scrapbook materials, beads, jewelry kits, and craft machines like Cricut. It is a good place for creating anything and celebrating holidays, with decorations and party supplies for occasions such as Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Thanksgiving, and New Year's. The store has a friendly staff and a nice selection, especially of picture frames and craft items. Prices are generally reasonable, especially with coupons that help make items more affordable, although regular prices can be higher. The store is suitable for children to explore their creativity with many options available. Self-checkout is available and works well, making shopping quicker. However, some customers find that the selection of cross stitching magazines and threads has decreased, and bead choices tend to favor larger, more blinged-out styles. Overall, Michaels remains a good place for art supplies and crafting needs.
I've always liked Michaels. They're now including some fabrics and other sewing supplies. When I was there it looked like a big shipment had come in. I'm usually there for the yarn, but there's a large variety of other crafts and home decor.

Customer service was awesome. They store was in a bit of shambles, but they have holidays and new plannograms for the Joann buyout. I'd go back.

Great selection and friendly, but their self check out was incredibly painful to use. Try to find a cashier.
