Haven't been back here in awhile and I'm glad I visited to be inspired! THIS is the place to find anything related to art, crafts, or cooking. You need time to browse through the aisles and look at everything closely. It's basically hard to leave this place empty handed with the price so reasonable. The shelves are organized for you to touch and pick up the items. With fabric stores closing down, I'm glad this place had fabric and notions too. Bonus: free parking in their lot. read more

Unfortunately I think a lot of the junk sold at Michael's will go straight into a landfill. However, I still love them because they sell some great art supplies. I buy most of my canvases here, as they're not only really good quality but really good prices. They also sell some pretty decent paint. This location is also the most organized for online orders, everything is alphabetical and easy to find. Awesome customer service here too! read more

Micheal's has the monopoly on Craft Stores so you have to go there for certain things. This location is ok. It's pretty much the same in every store. My tips are always check and use the weekly coupon ! You can save 30/40% off one regular priced item. Also check the weekly flyer ad they can have some pretty good deals. read more

Went here a few days before Halloween to get some Halloween costume supplies. One staff near the fabric section was super knowledgeable about what material would work with my project. She also gave me alternative material, and helped to locate it. I always go here to get some arts & craft supply. Price is reasonable for very niche items. Pro tip: Always check the coupon online, managed to get 40% off. read more

We got amazing deals, materials and pleasure out of this store. We appreciate it and love it.

Fantastic service from the young woman in the framing department, really outstanding service. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and sympathetic to someone working on a smaller budget. I ended up returning the frames I had purchased at a different retailer and buying everything at Michael's because of her great judgement in what type of framing my prints would look best in. She also pointed out that Michael's had a discount code on their website I could use. Really appreciate her guidance, just moved into a new apartment, so will be back to Michael's for more home purchases. read more

If you find excitement through aisles of beads, flowers, yarn, craft glue, glitter, foam, frames, pots, putty, clay, buttons, letters, stickers, ribbons, or anything to do with making things with your hands... this is the place to endulge! Michael's has a HUGE assortment of everything you need to complete any craft project. I found my needed glitter and jewels to decorate my phone cases, spray adhesive for making a fabric board, a big white piggy bank (bigger than my head!) to decorate and fill with change, and different coloured piece of felt. Although that's all I needed, I spent a good 60 minutes browsing the stores and admiring all the knick knacks that could be bought. If I didn't have a job, this would be my second home because I'd want to make anything with everything that's in this store. Only downside, this place can be a little pricey for some of their items. But there's an easy fix because they have coupons you can find online and also, if you sign-up online they email you coupons and tell you about store sales/deals. So far, I've been able to use a 40 and 50% off coupon on a regular priced item! Start getting those fingers sticky my artsy friends! read more

If you're feeling crafty, Michael's offers a little bit of everything for nearly any craft. I was in search for yarn and didn't want high-end, handspun yarn ... I just wanted a big 'ol skein of the cheap stuff. This Michael's location is easily accessible from Skytrain, unlike its other locations around the metro area. Take Canada Line to the Bridgeport station and it's a quick 10 minute walk from there. The store was clean, bright, and fully stocked with a good selection of yarns in varying colours and types. I ended up with Patron's 100% wool yarn and it worked great for my project! read more

As much as I love Michael's for their selection - it's crazy overpriced. Yes, I still shop here from time to time and I'm sure the overall quality is better (...maybe). Sometimes I've gone to the dollar store and found exactly what I needed for the fraction of the price. The other day I bought: Paper Glue Thin Wrapping Wire Thick Wrapping Wire 6 nautical accessories (for sea glass wrapping) Small wire cutters Grand total: About $55 Just mind boggling. So much money for hardly anything. read more

This is my go to craft store and it's great! I've never had any issues coming here. The store is always well stocked and organized. The employees are also very professional. I needed to return an item and before I went to the cashier I stopped in the bathroom and guess what?? Shattered the darn thing I was returning My thought was 'erg! $15 down the drain! There is NO way they'll except this.' I was WRONG! I went to the cashier and asked if she still would return it and she did. THANKFULLY! Also, I love the fact I can search for a 40% off coupon every time from my phone and they'll accept with no hassle! So convenient. read more

Michaels is the ultimate place for crafters. But if you're not into crafts.. don't let that deter you! It's also a great place to buy stuff for goody bags.. seasonal stuff.. whatever floats your boat. Cake decorating? They got it. Knitter? Got that too. Stamping? Ok. If you haven't got the point yet.. you need to just go check it out yourself. And when they have sales, their prices are pretty good. Tip: They constantly have coupons for %40 off one regular priced item. If you have a smart phone, download the app and get the coupons straight to your phone. :) read more

I love arts and crafts and Michael's is my heaven! They sell anything from paper to flowers, stickers, scrap booking stuff, leather work and tools etc. I really love their Martha Stewart collection for simple DIY projects. They also offer classes from cake-making to flower arrangements. You can always find deals at the clearance section or they also have weekly promotions. They also have the 40% off coupon on regular items as well. Staff are friendly and available and are knowledgeable. If you are new to this category, there are also many books to learn how to DIY on things that may interest you. Parking available. read more

I was very delighted when I discovered the shop at Aberdeen Centre, with the same spread and even some high end items in the back. Awesome! I have quite a collection from this store. Mostly bowls of all sorts, different diameters, depths, and slope of walls that I use for salads, ramen, pasta, and serving bowls. I also have (too many) of their boxed small condiment bowls that I use for the dining table and for soaps and trinkets. They are so pretty with high quality glazes. I have an affinity for girly colors, which unfortunately, that selection is limited. The normal colors are blue with whites and dark shades, according to the sales lady. If they have a wider color palate, this would be a 5 stars experience for sure. They do have a couple that have pink cherry blossoms and/or bunnies. There's nothing like eating your meal from dishes that make you smile. I highly recommend this store. :) Check out the pieces in the back wall behind glass. They are for sale with prices to match the behind glass status. An exception is a few piggy-banks that are not piggy shape. Those would make nice gifts.

On this visit, I picked up an item based on the shelf price, but it scanned higher at checkout. Staff checked and confirmed the shelf label was incorrect.

I understand mistakes can happen, but once the store confirmed the label was wrong, I expected some level of accountability or customer consideration. I even escalated the issue one level, but the outcome didn't change. Overall, the store has a good selection and I've had many positive visits in the past, but this experience felt unnecessarily rigid and not very customer-friendly. I hope they can improve how situations like this are handled going forward.

Please note that they have moved to No.5 Road in Richmond, so call first to get their address before you head there! I went to Perfect Arts today after reading the excellent review by the other Yelper (Steven M). I was looking for a 40 x 50 cm glass piece for my photo frame, because I accidentally dropped my big photo frame when I was trying to hang it and I broke the old glass! I was googling for Richmond BC photo frame companies and found that this location offered cheaper according to the other Yelper. I called in and the owner was very professional, she said she would check her stock and call me back. Then she gave me a price quote estimate and I went into purchase. They had the glass piece right away because it was a standard size, so I felt very lucky. I was fine if I had to wait a few days, so it was a pleasant surprise to get my photo frame glass replaced right away! Their prices are cheaper than other stores since they are a warehouse. I'll be coming back in the near future to change my University diploma frame and customize it to a prettier look. (My University gives boring dark old frames, so I want to change the frame to match my home colors). The owner speaks English and Cantonese; she was a very nice and professional lady. They have a big selection of frames at their warehouse at lower prices than other stores, and I was happy with my purchase and the customer service today.
