Worse mistake Michael's did was let them walk out.

The new store manager Tommy does NOT know what he is doing , much less manage a store, he's rude and condescending, hardly there. Always gone by 3pm. He is never available when needed.Michaels if you want to keep this location up and running you need to get rid of him. when your assistant manager leaves abruptly after being there for over 5 years, that says a lot about your store manager! I'm taking my business elsewhere.

The dude that works here is super helpful and always has suggestions if you're not sure what exactly you need. Cost wise, I don't think it's cheap, but the prices are all fair.

Craftex - The Coolest Store in Houston Tucked onto a side…read morestreet in Bellaire, just off of Bellaire Boulevard near Hillcroft, is the amazing Craftex. I discovered the place through my friend, Greg Buchold. I had been admiring a Mardi Gras mask and wreath that he had put on his door and he told me about the place. I went looking for Mardi Gras stuff but was blown away by the extensive collection of cookbooks and design books that they sell, all discounted from retail list prices. But there was much much more. Just when I think I've seen everything there is to see in Houston, something new pops up on my radar. Check out the photos.

To say this Christmas store is overwhelming is to understate things a bit. It carries everything…read moreyou could want for decorating...and then some. They don't just have ribbon--they have a ribbon room. They don't just have ornaments--they have an ornament room. Same for wreathes/garland as well as picks/sprays/branches. They have large items too, such as sleighs, artificial trees, and shopping mall quality vibrant statues/characters/displays. Most things are well-priced, however the large unique items will cost you much more than most of us will want to pay. Would I compare this place to the decorators warehouse up in Arlington/DFW?--absolutely. Both are awesome for Christmas decor.

So if you go there for fiber arts and are also interested in history, here is a tip: I recently read the excellent book about Texas Ranger Frank Hamer by John Bossenecker (2016). He is the man credited for killing Bonnie and Clyde. Not only is Bossenecker's a masterful biography, he also gives a panoramic account of life in and around Navasota from the horseback days up to the 1930s. Some of that history unfolded on the street outside this place! If you only have time for one chapter, read Chapter 4 titled "Marshal of Navasota."

And most importantly, the owner is super nice and knowledgeable. I consider myself pretty experienced knitter/crocheter but always learn something from this shop. I've also seen her help brand-new-to-the-yarn-art folks learn the craft on many occasions. They offer a really interesting line of workshops and local fiber-related tours. They are reasonably priced and well worth the money. I've visited many yarn shops in and out of Texas but I always love coming back to this store!

I've come here for children's art supplies, gifts, and paintbrushes. Their paintbrush selection is fantastic--I've used some for painting and even repurposed others for makeup, and they've all worked great. They carry everything you could possibly need: brushes, paint, canvases, drawing supplies like pencils, pens, chalk, and charcoal, and a huge variety of crafting materials. You'll find jewelry-making supplies, sand art, glitter, stencils, scrapbooking items, face paint, gold leaf, and even supplies for sculpture. The store is well-organized, and the staff is always helpful if you need to find something or have questions. It's a place where you can find inspiration for any creative project. I highly recommend stopping by if you're in Montrose!

I quickly stepped into TX Art Supply with my sister. They were just on the cusp of closing when my…read moresister wanted to browse around for ideas. I had never been inside the store that I frequently passed while driving. As we walked in, we were immediately greeted by one of the cashiers. I would have thought, she may have been frustrated by our late arrival. Thankfully, not. There are a vast selection of paints, putty, paint brushes, solution to clean brushes, books on how to draw faces, anime characters, and stencils to help create the perfect shape, size, and theme. Seeing the stencils reminded me of kindergarten and elementary school arts and crafts. All kinds of colorful wallpaper art. I think I spotted 10 different kinds of sketch pads for whatever art you wanted to make including custom comic books or for manga. My sister was happily assisted by, "Birthday Boy", Rodney. Him and my sister spoke for 30 minutes about the difference between watercolor, acrylic, and another method of paint. Rodney was giving my sister a lecture that she appreciated. He showed her recommendations on what travel kits to purchase and what he would use. My sister said that she really liked how thorough he was and that he knew what he was talking about. I enjoyed that he was personable and funny. The supplies in the ranges from $1 and up with plenty of brands to choose from. They even have an upstairs section. It's a pretty cool store! My sister plans on visiting again tomorrow to reboot her hobby in art.
