Their options seem unlimited! Every time I come here, I end up spending my time going up and down each aisle. It's also very quality art supplies. They offer different art classes as well which I believe they hold in one of the stores walking distance from them. They have a list of their upcoming classes and events posted on the board next to the entrance. All their workers are friendly and helpful to any questions you might have. For the quality of the supplies, it's a great price.

Why didn't I come here sooner? Hobby Lobby is now one of my favorite store to shop at. They had…read morespring items on sale for 50 percent off like plates, stainless steel and glass water bottles, planters, wall decor, wind chimes, toys, and so much more. My mouth dropped wide opened when I saw really good stuff on sale. They even had plain colored t-shirts for $3.25 each. My friends and I spent about an hour roaming around the store. So much to see with lots of options also for crafts. We spotted a section for clearance items where my friend bought plastic water bottles for $1.25 set of 3. So he bought two sets for $2.50. Such a great deal. We were all satisfied with what we bought at amazing prices. Can't wait to go back!

I must say I'm really unhappy, annoyed and disappointed with my visit today. I've been waiting…read moreweeks for the patriotic stuff to go on sale (seriously, me and my mom have been looking every Sunday on the app). Well it finally went on sale today!! I went to return something and then browsed the isles to pick out some new items for my red, white and blue decor at home. (4th of July is my FAVORITE)!! What.A.Let.Down. A large majority of the items looked like complete trash. Many, MANY things scratched and scuffed up. I don't want to decorate with crappy looking decorations. A couple items were even ripped (see America sign photo). What the heck!? Who in their right mind would think it's ok to stock that on the shelves? I contemplated taking these items to someone but it would have likely filled the bulk of the cart. I wish I would have taken more pictures but you can see how bad just the few were that I took. Do better, Hobby Lobby. I really hope management sees this.

He seemed extremely passionate in what he does! Giving a low rating just because of our experience with front desk staff. We come in super cordial just to be met with stank attitudes. A few weeks after our session, we called the place to follow up on our pieces and the woman on the phone sounded rude about us asking about it. We went to pick up our pieces recently and the woman at the front desk definitely sounded like the one we talked to on the phone, same voice and same unwelcoming attitude. As if our presence ruined her day or us picking up our pieces was such a drastic request for her to do.

Dainty Disco is such a cute and unique craft studio in Long Beach, especially for decoden glue…read morecrafts! There aren't many places like this in the area, so it's a fun and creative spot to check out. I found them on Instagram and decided to go with some friends. I've been to two craft studios that are similar, so my review is based on experiences from other places. The booking process was super easy--you reserve online with a $10 nonrefundable deposit, which goes toward the final cost of your craft. When we went at 3 PM on a Friday, we were the only group there, so we had the whole space to ourselves. Free street parking was available right in front of the store, which was a plus! Just a heads-up, it's located in an older part of Long Beach, so keep that in mind. The studio itself is absolutely adorable - very girly and charming. It's a smaller space but seems like it could accommodate a few larger groups at a time, so if you're planning to go with a big party, I'd recommend inquiring ahead of time. One thing I really appreciated is that there's no per-person studio fee. The craft prices ranged from around $15-$45, which is similar to other craft studios I've been to. You can decorate a variety of items like jewelry boxes, mirrors, photo frames, claw clips, phone cases, and glass cups. There was a nice selection of beads, charms, glitter, and other craft supplies. Their website and Instagram list monthly specials, and this month's Hello Kitty and Sonny Angel-inspired phone buddies were adorable. The owner was incredibly sweet, and you can tell she puts a lot of love into her business. She originally started Dainty Disco as a gift shop, so there's still a small retail section with cute merchandise available for purchase. A couple of minor things could be improved. The lighting inside the studio wasn't the best--it was a cloudy day, which didn't help, but some additional overhead lighting would have been useful for crafting. Also, a few craft options were sold out; for example, they were out of the larger heart jewelry boxes and only had one smaller one left. I think a section on the website that lists the options for crafts with pictures would have been helpful in guiding customers ahead of time for their choices. Overall, we had a great time, and it was nice to support a small business! They also host monthly craft meet-ups, which I'd love to check out in the future. If you're looking for a fun and creative activity in Long Beach, I definitely recommend giving Dainty Disco a visit and I'm down to come back!

I have been a Michaels customer for over 30 years and I have never felt so unappreciated!! Your WIFI which I was on while I was in your store would not let me sign into your app. I know my password works bc I was just on it earlier in the day. When I went to check out however I had been unable to sign in again. Your sales reps solution was to void my sale and have me stand outside in the rain to try gain access to the internet! I COULD SEE YOUR MICHAELS WIFI ON MY PHONE! Your sales rep didn't want me holding up her line any longer!!! She would not allow me to use any of your coupons unless I was signed in!!

They think everybody is in there to steal so they'll either blatantly follow you around or take the more low-key approach and you'll notice they just so happen to start stocking shelves in the same aisle you're browsing in. They also like to do this thing where they announce over the P.A. system "Long Beach P.D. - Line One" to make you think they have called the police on you to get people out of the store!

Kelly has helped me several times - she is honest and shares an actual love for what you are picking out. Kristin is also lovely. Simply- You feel good with the pieces you are taking home, but also the business you are supporting. The necklace in the first picture: The meaning is from Aesop' s Fable of "The Oak & the Reeds'; "an oak and reed were arguing about their strength. A strong wind came up, the reed avoided being uprooted by bending and moving with the gusts. The oak stood firm and was torn up by the roots. Nature shows that it's better to bend than break. " My Nanny gave me a heart shaped rock that said "strength" before she passed away. The word, meaning, and feeling of strength has always been near to my heart. That's why this piece is perfect for me. Thank you Kelly for helping me find it. I have many other items from this shop not pictured. Great place for gifts (huge selection of items such as vases, glasses, art). You know the item you choose is one of a kind and meaningful.

oooh we loved this place! I wanted a fun activity that my daughter and I can have, with no food…read moreinvolved for once haha! We booked our table and date/time on their website- soper easy process. We visited on a sunday afternoon and the place was Packed- in a good way. groups of friends, couples on a date, a whole family...it felt appropriate for all. I never spent a whole 2 hours painting what we chose. lot sof colors to choose from and instructions were simple, clear and shared at the beginning. It was a great time with no phone in hand, focusing on painting and micing colors...so relaxing. At the end we leave our masterpeices there, and they text us once they are dry and ready for pick up. This is an activity that we can go and do again and again, everytime can be a different experience and outcome. Booking there again, maybe for a playdate for my daughter and her best freind. One thing I do hope this place offers in the future, it is for the instructions to include more info about all the bells and whistles we can ask for as we paint...we learned about all the gadgets and tools by observing others, maybe like a little brochure or cute menu.

Really fun and cool experience! I like that they have a lot of items available (figures,…read moredinnerware, decorations). Just be warned basically EVERYTHING is above $30 alongside the studio fee of ~ $15. Depending on what you go with, it's definitely good to have an idea of what you want to do (design or color wise) before you go, so it doesn't eat into your limited time. I like that they have examples of how the paint will look before and after firing, alongside brightness/layer (on the wall). I picked something practical and that I can actually use to eat:) It took about 10 days to be done so we could pick up.
