If youve never been to Michaels it is a craft store. Good prices on materials, art, jewlery, framing... You name it. The check out line always is a wait at this store though but usually not too terribly long so dont be in a hurry.
Not pressured to wear a mask.Enjoyed my shopping experience. When I had a question, was assisted by staff. Found what I wanted...
Very helpful associates not only showed where items were but suggested I check proportions before purchasing items.
This store has a decent selection of craft supplies and home decor. Prices range from decent to outrageous. $300.00 for a set of 48 markers for example- those prismacolor ones- unless those markers shoot out diamonds and gold, thats a tad much. Especially when I can get a set of 72 markers of the same brand for $140.00 from Amazon. Most of the staff was friendly and helpful. There was one lady though, who asked if she could help me, so I described to her what I was looking for, and she immediately told me that they didnt have it. Also informing me that they were more of a make-it-yourself store instead of a end product store. I was looking for a specific pendant to make a necklace. She wasnt getting it. Now, being since she was conducting interviews, you would think that she would have a bit more knowledge about the products in the store that she is employed in. I had browsed the Michaels website prior to my arrival at the store and the website told me that the pendant that I was looking for was in stock at that particular store. I politely told the lady that I was just going to continue to look around and see if I could find something else that would work. Now, imagine my surprise when I found not one, but two different types of pendants with the om symbol ️ that I was searching for! as smart as a man came out and I just had to go tap on the window over office and show her and she rolled her eyes in disgust! Can you even believe it. I do wish I caught her name... Next time though... As she was the only employee that I encountered during my visit that was a bit curt and had little product knowledge. The cashier that rang up my items was very friendly and efficient. Not to mention she did an excellent job bagging my items so nothing got smashed or broken. Its a decent place, I would shop there again and I would recommend it to other people.
Always love going here to get my yarn they always have the best deals an my daughter loves there crafting things love it so much I always buy more then what I go there for an have to hide my receipts from my hubby
What dont they have? Im always able to find my crafting items and holiday items!
Its a mini Hobby Lobby. I love it!
Excellent service and great prices.
Always a great way to make the pockets empty and the imagination full.
Sales listed never show up when go to check out and they made a hassle to fix
It has practically everything that you can want. The staff was very helpful and kind.
I went in just for paint and left with gifts fury grandbabies!!
Its always a very clean and organized business and definitely great at giving you craft ideas!
Every time Ive ever needed anything in this store, not only do the employees help me find what Im looking for, but they find me sales and deals I didnt even know were going on. An absolutely amazing store.
Prices are reasonable and friendly associates
Large variety of craft supplies. There was only one cashier and a long line.
Employees helped me find what I needed. I had a very good quick trip to the store.
Found every art item I needed, saved a lot with my coupons and friendly staff.
Great place to take kids if bored..... lots of projects here.....
They are low in supplies w pens. Nice customer service.
I took my wife and daughters there. Im assuming they had the time of their lives since we were there over two hours. They also have classes for kids to learn some arts and crafts things (the classes are held on Saturdays). But if you enjoy arts and crafts then look not further than Michaels.
No customer service.. 4 people working up front and no one on floors. Long lines and cant find anything I need.. Will go to joanns..
Im very disappointed in MichaelsTheyve decided to NO LONGER STOCK POPULAR ITEMS & BRANDS in-store & on-line! LOW OR NO IN-STORE & ON-LINE INVENTORYREDUCING INVENTORY SELECTION IN-STORE!CUSTOMER SERVICE IS A JOKE, from their lack of staff qualified, experienced & knowledgeable in arts and crafts. Lack of staff, making you stand in the checkout line for 30 minutes or longer.Theres so many more things I could say, but Im not writing a book, just a review!
Love love love this place just wish it was a little cheaper I can seek 6 get a colorless blending pencil for way cheaper here than on Amazon plus I like brick and mortar I hate paying and having to wait 2to 4 weeks for the item to come I want to take home what I purchased
Honestly the lady who tried to help us was totally clueless. We walked around with her for a long time and then she insisted they didnt carry what we were looking for. Once she walked away I found what she said they didnt have a few aisles away. I do like the variety of things in the store but knowledgeable employees make a world of difference.
The UC Michaels is the Costco of Michaels
Hands down one of my favorite stores! if you’re an arts & craft person, or you just love art in general, keep in mind that it will be quite difficult to leave the store empty handed. Some items are a bit high in price, but that’s what sales are for!!! Staff are always helpful and offers great customer service, which is ALWAYS a plus.
If your into Arts and Crafts for you or your family, trust me, this place has the best prices in town.
Love this place. Could spend hours in there. Wide selection of options for everything youre looking for
Great prices and sales. Helpful staff. Good selection of art supplies except cross stitch kits.
They had almost everything I wanted and done things I didnt know I wanted.
I love Michaels. They have an awesome selection, and the app makes it so easy at checkout to use your earned coupons. So many fun things for kids, and the staff has been so helpful. I walked in at Christmas time with a project, showed it to this younger gentleman working there. He took me to every spot in the store for each item, I checked out..less than 10 minutes! very pleased
They have a lot to offer but you will see that reflect in the prices. Its in the area of other quick stop shops so just check in sometime.
Always a pleasure!
Not exactly a heavy crafter, however selection & sales typically youre better off @ Joannes near IHOP.
Love Michaels. Great craft supplies; especially for all ages!
My favorite crafty store! Especially love the app and coupons
Needs sturdier crafting tools...Prices are a great deal...customer service is helpful and friendly...isle access a bit squished.
The store is clean and well stocked. The prices are a bit higher then the lower 48, but thats to be expected. Over all the staff are nice, and helpful. They are also knowledgeable about the various crafts and models they have.
Always helpful and friendly
Always have products, rarely out of stock
Great store with a wide range of items at reasonable prices.
The service was very good and they did great work on my pictures
Great deals going on right now
Very good prices and a great selections.
This store is a crafters dream come true! Prices are great thank goodness....even tho i still spend waay too much there! Definitely recommend this place!
Love the staff! The Manager Rebecca is super helpful!
Friendly, helpful staff
Love Michaels, but geez some of the prices are as though they are Pier 1. Sales bring these items to a regular price, clearance makes them a sale, lol. But, a great option for the Valley and Alaska, more choices than Joanns, but not better prices.
Michaels is the place I go to, to find the accessories I need when crafting. They have it all, except woodworking magazines/books.
Sooo cute, So many crafty items. Love it
Love this place! Found everything I needed to make Memorial Day wreaths, and more. Was in and out in no time at all. One of my new fav places to go!
Great place nice christmas stuff
The bestist art supplies
They have a great selection, and great sales with friendly people working on the floor and at the registers.
Michaels is a fun place it had so much art supplies for people and for kids or manga lovers it has toys and manga books, for adults they have everything from fabrics to cricket. They have charms and yarn. I hope everyone likes it there.
They have everything you need. Only problem I see is the size of the aisles and the checkout lane. Way too small
They always have what I need and if I cant find it myself, their staff is friendly and always willing to help!
Great place to buy craft items
Its a very nice store with a good selection. Its just so small! One cart or person with a basket can be in an aisle at a time. You get to know your fellow shoppers very well.
They had yarn for a good price compared to Walmart large skeins.
I absolutely love the place
Such a great place to blow all your money. Hahaha
Totally loved the custom frames
Love the staff, always friendly and willing to help if needed, but also willing to let you shop in peace!
I love Michaels!
Great selection, great prices.
This place has everything you can think of crafting wise, as well as picture frames and a framing department, as well as great creative decorations for the house.
Customer service is horrible
Good service good staph, but too expensive.
Staff extremely cordial and helpful...
It was pretty cool
Omg first visit to Michaels here in Alaska and I had forgotten how amazing it is. Great people and stuff
This is one of the least helpful stores I have ever been in. I have been here multiple times and everytime I have asked for help it has been a problem or I was given the wrong information. I was so excited when I heard Michaels was coming to the valley and its been a huge disappointment.
Easy to find anything.
I can spend hours and money here!
Great store and nice frame section
I rate 4 only cause everyone there is very helpful. Its not there fault they never have what I want it need
Absolutely love Michaels
Tight isles and staff is helpful but can be unorganized at times
So much creative stuff to choose from live it
I had never been in their store. All because of a 4 Sale. I will go back
They have the supplies I need. Amazon is a little cheaper but I try to stay local if I can.
Layout of the store is sensible and easy to follow.
My go to for craft supplies.
Can never find what I need and no one around to help
Great deals and coupons.
I LOVE THIS PLACE!! Its about time Michaels came to the Valley!!
Small/medium selection of fabric and craft supplies. Wish they had a bigger store like Anchorage.
Have almost everything there for craft projects!
The employees were not very helpful.
Customers service was great
They have every thing you could imagine, and then more.
Just an average craft supply store.
Lots of idea starters here!
Wife likes the selection here
Kind and considerate
Great sales
