This Michael's is located at the Tempe Marketplace. I was looking for a metal doll. stand and had no idea where to look for it. I saw a staff person as I entered and inquired with him. He thought that the store carried them and did not know which aisle. He used his headset to ask other staff members the question. Unfortunately they no longer carry metal stands. He did offer a shadow box but that would not work for what I wanted. Shared parking lot and WiFi in the store. read more

Poor services. It seemed like they didn't even want to help when asked. They ignored customers and acted busy instead of actually working.

I think you are understaffed at checkout. We are older and needed help with self checkout. Kelvin was very rude and treated us like we are idiots. It was demeaning and unprofessional. read more

Missy was incredible! Went in with a 1000 questions about helium balloons and she answered all of them and we worked out a plan for me to get them at the perfect time while lasting until I needed them to. Thanks for your patience missy! Was looking for another product which she directed me to quickly and helped me get the exact version I needed. Made my life a 100 times easier today! read more

Michaels - Cutout fun picture frame - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Besides being 1/2 empty, poorly marked and mixed or incorrect pricing, it was an unremarkable waste of time. Next time I'll go to the 99 cent store. read more

I came into the store today to pick up some yarn for a new project and when I was in the store, I observed several large mice or rats or whatever they are running from the backstock room out onto the sales floor so when I let the manager on duty know that she asked me to leave the store. I will not be returning read more

Kelvin provided the worst customer service possible at checkout. When asked about using rewards points he just kept repeating use your email. He was condescending, curt, and rude. As a retired Police Officer, I treated suspect criminals with more respect. If he continues to work your checkout area you will continue to lose customers. read more

I used the framing shop at this Michael's and I am super happy with the service and the results! The woman sho helped me was patienknowledgeable, and we came up with a mat and frame that set off the piece I brought in perfectly. Thank you! read more

They need more staff, there was only one person at the front helping people check out. We had to ask the person at the check out twice for someone to help us with the spray paint and still no one came. Went and found an employee stocking shelves. Then when we went to check out still had to wait for the front check out person to help someone else before verifying we were over 21 to purchase the spray paint. Needs more staff. Glad I got to use coupons at least. read more

Got Flaming Hot Cheetos and they were 3 months expired. Beware their food. The other items they were selling were good though. read more

Cassie in the Framing Department at the Awautukee store is GREAT! She's a photographer as well with a professional eye for framing photos. We recommend her highly! read more

I don't generally go here but heard they do custom framing. Abi was so patient and helpful with picking out the right frame and matte for me which I really appreciated cause I'm not artistic read more

Whatever happened to customer service? One employee was pretty friendly. She was tall with dark hair (couldn't see her name tag). The red head...another story. The dark haired girl told us to take our carts and tip them sideways to get out of the store (we bought so much stuff that there was NO WAY we could carry it all out to the car). The red head says in a snotty tone, "SIR, you CAN'T do that". So, we had to make several trips back and forth to the car. Not a huge deal to make the trips, BUT: 1. She heard the first girl tell us to do it and then gets nasty with us for doing it. 2. I wouldn't have bought all this stuff that I don't clearly need if I knew that I had to hand carry it with several trips. 3. Rudeness doesn't just exist with customers. We were not rude first, she was. P.S. Management: My husband told me (not that I condone this) that he used the ladder to get stuff off of the top shelf and that same girl had NO PROBLEM letting him do that and never said a word when she walked by. So, why the carts? I know that by me avoiding this store will not make or break Michael's, but I will not be back to this Michael's (not even for emergency crafting supplies). I can go to Hobby Lobby or Joann's and be treated better than this. Keep my rewards. I don't need them that badly. Red Head = Zero stars Dark Haired Girl = Five stars Average 2 1/2 stars. Rounding down for the bad attitude. 2 stars. read more

Michaels - Over two shopping carts worth of stuff. - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

My little slice of heaven for all things knitting - everything a crafter could wish for. My biggest gripe is that it seems like each time I go, the cost increases ever so slightly. I know goods have become more expensive and inflation but every time? I don't want to make too big of a concern over this; I could be buying more supplies, too. The abundant options and lovely staff keep me coming back - seeing the regulars is like catching up with my dear friends. read more

Michael's has all sorts of new things, but my favorite recent new thing is a string journal. They had a lot of filler notebooks and then the binder to hold up to four books. I got all of them to hold all of my ideas. Then they had a huge sale, and I got a few spares when I fill these up. They also had a bunch of great planner stickers for my book. Of course I bought those too, and a set for my bestie at work. Thing is.... Michael's constantly has new ideas, new trends, and great products. Like quality brushes, and canvases, paints, pens, and loads of children's crafts. They added price checkers, finally. And they have weekly coupons. So they are my go to store for all things art. read more

Employees not as helpful at this one as my local one but I found what I needed relatively easily on my own. Checkout person was great!

I want to give a shout out to Aubrey who helped me today 12/15/2024 at 7:08pm she was so sweet and kind! On the other hand, when I asked this tall white girl for help to delete an item because I scanned twice by accident, she looked at me and gave me a dirty look, she didn't want to help, she then calls Aubrey saying "hey Aubrey can you help a customer" then her friend below says "you can help its fast and easy" then she says no and walks away! Then I turn around and she walks away. Later comes Aubrey who quickly solved the issue. That tall white girl shouldn't be working there because of how she treats others with disgust. But then I'm glad cause her pay probably isn't that great. I AM HISPANIC AND I DID IN FACT VOTED FOR TRUMP. I even told Aubrey "that white bitch is hella racists" Aubrey apologized for that other persons actions. If you ever shop at Michael's in Tempe Marketplace look for the tall white girl who looks like a dinosaur and ask for help and make sure she helps you because that's her job it's the main reason she works there lol. I hope management speaks to her as well and trains her better. Friendly tip white trash next corporation job will be looking for great quality customer service. read more

David, Ashley, and Tina were very helpful and patient when I visited last week! I was embarking on an arts and crafts project where I created a framed gallery of photos with twine. They took a lot of time out to suggest a very large, cheap frame ($8!), twine, glue, and a staple gun. They also told me to ask the cashier for 20% off coupons. Very thankful for the service here. The store itself is clean, quiet, and so fun to explore. A wonderful retail experience for sure! read more

Great store for all your crafty needs. From jewelry beads, to silk flowers a lot of decorative or DIY projects can be bought here. Check online or in the mail for coupons! I haven't had any problems finding what I need at this location, and service has been speedy and friendly. read more

Great framing department. Samantha in the framing department at the tempe marketplace is amazing. She suggested the frame and matting. Just amazing for my first painting. Thank you. read more

Michaels - Painted tongue depressors - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

The store is huge and therefore kind of overwhelming. Unfortunately, I couldn't find what I was looking for or someone to ask where it was located. I feel like I never can happen to find what I need at this location because of the sheer size of the store and the fact that it is usually so crowded. The checkout line can tend to be crazy ultra mega super long. Especially, on my last visit due to a 20% off your entire purchase in the ads that day. However, checking out tends to go crazy ultra mega super fast because they have multiple registers and actually had them all up and running! Hooray! :: cough, cough :: Ulta (a few doors down the way) :: cough, cough :: This was a huge plus-plus! Add a star. Having to call an employee on the sale's floor (Wait, there ARE employees hidden in that maze of a sale's floor??) to get a price for an items that was clearly similar enough to another item that it could have easily been priced the same. (FYI: In case, you were wondering it ended up priced the same. Oi.) Minus a star. Stop holding up your crazy ultra mega super long line and get me out of there crazy ultra mega super fast. It's why we like you. read more

Jesus was super kind warm and helpful. the store was clean and the checkout line was efficient and quick!

I'm pretty sure I go to this Michaels more than any other Michaels in the area because it's the closest one. I've had good experiences and bad experiences in here and that's just the way it goes in Michaels. I try to be cheerful and friendly to the clerks and hope that I will get the same back . I am disappointed that the selection of the Donna Dewberry One Stroke painting supplies has dwindled over the years, as have the Plaid Folk Art paints and brushes, and there are practically no classes held here anymore. That's a shame because I do enjoy taking craft classes to learn new things. When you are in here be sure to hit the clearance aisle because it usually has quite a few things in it, and keep in mind that you can use only one coupon in here per visit but, depending on who has the highest coupon, it can be Michaels, Hobby Lobby or Joann's. It is not unusual for me too give away my Michaels coupon to someone else who is usually very appreciative, and use a Joanns coupon for 50 percent if one is available . I have bought a lot of stuff in here over the years including the supplies I have found here to help me get started with knitting and crocheting as well as continuing my card making and painting. I know the store so well people walk up to me and ask me where to find items and I can usually show them where the stuff is! Where's my commission?? read more

This was my second trip into this store. I was looking for a wood burning / soldering tool & had been to 2 other stores already. I had checked the online inventory & it said they had them. I got there to discover an empty product hook. I asked an associate & she diligently looked before another woman told her that all 6 they had in inventory had been stolen. The other, more expensive burners had been left untouched... I'm perplexed. There was no offer to check other stores for the item I specifically came in looking for but I was told to call ahead next time (keeping an accurate inventory would be a better solution). Not sure I will go back to this specific Michael's again. Given how they are treating employees during the pandemic, I may end up skipping them all together in the future. read more

This Michaels has no customer service. I went in the week after Easter and they were absolutely rude. I waited in line to return something. No smile, no hi how can I help you. Just miles of blank stares and blatant attitudes. I hadn't even finished the return and the cashier was picking up the telephone. I said I have a quick question for you and they picked up the telephone anyway. Every employee encountered that day was like this. I will not be back to this location and maybe never any Michaels after this treatment. read more

Michael's....Michael's.....Michael's!! I definitely enjoy this store. They are completely affordable & today when I went, they were having a big clearance sale with 50-70% off! Now that is a deal. I had to make a poster for my nieces semi-finals volleyball game today & it came out amazing thanks to all the supplies I got at Michael's. Everyone in the store was helpful & they pointed me in the right direction. I have been here several times before & have never had a problem. They offer seasonal crafting items, yearly crafting items, stuff to make jewelry & they even have a framing center at the back of the store for your photos! This is your number one stop shop for your craft! read more

Michaels - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

My first time coming to this Micheals I was rushed and had the lights turned off on me before 7pm rude employees and unhappy customers the manager should be more strict on employees. Making customers feel very uncomfortable read more

This Michaels location is within the Tempe Marketplace shopping center. It's off the McClintock entrance, which makes it easy to get in and out of, without having to cut through the mall. I wanted to give them 3 stars, but I am feeling generous today, and gave them 4 stars since I do save some $$ with thier coupons. Ok, so I am a scrapbooker at heart, but also like to frequent these stores for other forms of home decor for my place. This time, I was in Michaels for some decorative flowers, along with maybe some fabric as well to go over the blinds in my apartment. I found the flowersI needed here, but not the fabric. :-( bummer. The store is set up nicely, with most stuff sectioned off. Baskets in one area, framing in another, scrapbooking off to one side, etc. you get the point. Bonus for having some form of organized layout. I dig that. They were having an amazing discount on some candles, plus, I used a coupon I had gotten in the mail, and it saved me a bunch of $$. The best part of Micheals is that they send out coupons just about every week. If you know you are going to be doing some shopping there for anything, check your mailbox before you do. The complaints that I have about Michaels are the following. First, this location does NOT sell fabric. Its not the first Michael's store that I have found that doesn't. I was upset, becuase that means I have to do another trip to a store if I had really wanted to get fabric for decorating. I mean, most of the Joanns sell fabric in these parts, why cant they? Secondly, the isles feel cramped and pushed together. At times, it can be hard to navigate if you have more then one other person shopping in the same isle. Don't even try to push your cart down the isle if someone else is there. Thier literally wide enough for one person to squeeze down. yuck. I like my space. It almost makes me feel like I need to take turns to look at stuff. Anyways, I will always recomend Michaels, but to be honest, I would rather go to Jo-anns ETC as they are far superior then Micheals in my crafty opinion. read more

Decent sized Michael's that is well organized and has an easy to navigate layout. The staff was really friendly at this location and we were passed by two different employees that both greeted us and asked if we needed assistance in finding anything. Although we were unable to find everything we needed at this location the staff made an effort to assist us and they offered to special order it for us if we needed them to. Overall: A If we are back in the area and in need of some crafting supplies, we wouldn't hesitate to hit them up! read more

Love this place, wish one was in San Tan Valley would go a lot more. If you are a crafter or like to get holiday stuff this is where to go. read more

Oh Michaels, you so crafty. The way you trick me into thinking I need those $1 items, that extra stuffing, and maybe some beads for the bracelet I'll never make. Don't get me wrong, I love Michaels. I love crafting and creating something. However, lately I just don't have the time for it! I came to this particular Michaels on a mission for some felt for a specific project I was working on. Yes, I could have gone straight to the felt, grabbed it and left, but no... I had to wander the baking aisle, the knitting aisle, basically I went down every aisle just to see what was new and if there was anything I might possible want to do in the future. In the end, I left with more than I originally needed! That's okay. Just add it to the craft closet. You can be sure I will be back. This particular Michaels has the same layout as most I've been in and it is convenient since it is at Tempe Marketplace. The parking can be horrible, depending on the day/time but a little extra walking won't kill anyone. read more

So I went to buy Christmas stuff and it was all gone. Christmas hadn't even come yet!! I was a little confused. I had to do some digging to find what I needed. Michaels is a great store to find crafts and if you are a DIY kind of person. There are always things on sale but at this location things go FAST. I suggest getting it when it comes out. I am though a little annoyed they only have 1 person helping with the check out line. Every time I come i wait in line for 10 minutes. Come on! Where is the manager??? If you don't mind waiting in line or buying Christmas stuff in November come here. read more

This MIchael's sucks! We were there Friday night to get a few craft items for the baby's room. I also needed some items to make my baby shower favors with. It was pretty busy when we got there. BUT was there a team member around to answer questions? NOPE! 2 workers were in the store...TOTAL....from what we saw. After trying to figure and locate eveything on our own...with no luck. J and I dropped all the items we had and left. We should have just made the drive to JoAnn's in scottsdale. read more

Now that my place is finally all unpacked and ready to start living in, I've uncovered all of my craft stuff which caused me to get the fever. With lots of new ideas in mind, I headed to Michael's. Their layout is pretty straight forward, the isles and shelves were well organized with no evidence of hungry crafters pulling things off and rummaging through them. I like to make jewelry so beads are my draw to Michael's. I'm going to make a suggestion on the bead merchandising that Michael's will never follow: it would be rad if they were organized by price. All the beads are color coated to match their price point but as a starving artist on the go it would save my time and brain muscles if all the price points were put together. Just an idea. I'm sure the brains at Michael's has a reason for doing it the way they do. The place was dead so no line for the checkout. Always nice to not have time to wonder if I've spent too much. The girl who rang me up was not interested in small talk which is okay I guess. I'm sure she was busy with something else but I always appreciate feeling like my purchase is important. Oh well. read more

Michaels - I made a wish bracelet which is super cool :) - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I love the crafting supplies at Michaels. Is it just me or when you go down the aisles, isn't it almost impossible to not want to just grab a little of EVERYTHING to make all sorts of little crafty projects!?! I love this place. As such a wonderful added bonus, Michaels always has coupons online. So while I was waiting in line, I went online on my phone and pulled up the coupon. The cashier scanned the barcode on my phone and instantly, 50% off 1 full priced item. I saved $12.50 yaaaay. read more

Got checked out by Kaylen who had horrible customer service attitude. Gave her my phone w my Michael account bar code already pulled up but wanted me to use the key pad instead. When I asked, she told me she knows "how the app works", but she has a "routine." Also, was the only staff member in the store NOT wearing a mask. read more

Absolutely awful. Floral decorations are all in the wrong places so you think it's a certain price and then get to the register and it's actually completely different. Happened to me 3 times in 2 days. Ridiculous. Also no one walking the store to offer help or wave down when you need assistance. Everything is disorganized and picked through. Will not be coming back read more

THIS PLACE IS F-$@ing USELESS!!!!!!! I went into this store today expecting to find someone in one of the aisles who could help me. NOT ONE EFFING WORKER IN THE ENTIRE STORE EXCEPT AT THE REGISTERS!!!! WTF!!!!????!!!!! I needed help finding Velcro dots and I looked in all the areas that I think I'd find them and no luck. Now I see why these stores are basically filing for bankruptcy. Nobody to work them and help customers. I'm taking my money to amazon where I can easily find products. F*** MICHAELS!!!!! read more

They usually have everything I need for my children, but staff here is pretty unhelpful. I usually walk around looking for staff, and end up finding everything on my own. read more
