5 stars! What a wonderful business!…read more I worked with Mary in June and July on invitations for a Baptism and brunch for a little boy and little girl. She was great to work with from across the country. We emailed back and forth for about two weeks, picking a design, finalizing the wording and getting the invites in the mail. Mary was incredibly responsive, responding to emails late at night and on weekends when she definitely wasn't working. She also was a great sport when we switched designs and needed new options. Can't say enough about the kind, thoughtful service we received. I truly wish we could have a Mary and Sass N Class in my little town. Thank you, thank you for all of your help!

First and foremost, Mary Kay (MK) is the absolute best!…read more If Yelp would allow me give her 100 stars, I absolutely would! My sister and I walked into 221 Creations on Monday, August 6, 2018 with worry in our eyes. My wedding is Saturday, October 6, 2018 and we knew we had to get these invitations out as quickly as possible. Mary Kay sat and gave us all the time we needed. My sister and I looked in the invitation book and we figured we'd have to pass on my favorite option because the paper only came in ecru. MK called the printer to get the invitation paper in white. She made it happen! We ordered the addresses to be printed on the invitation envelopes and she was an immense help with the invitation wording etiquette. The invitation company suggested four glue dots to paste the invitation on the backing but Mary Kay suggested that a different form of tape would be easier to apply and it would be more durable. She could have easily ordered those dots but she knew it would be a pain to do which we really appreciated when it came to assembling the invitations. Once we had decided on the invitations and text, she submitted the order to the printer and told us she would follow up with a proof via email the next day. As promised, we received the proof email and once we responded with our approval, she instantly submitted the order to print. We had the invitations in hand yesterday, Thursday, August 16 at 1:30pm. She communicated with us from the moment we walked into the shop until we had the invitations in hand. I can't stress how pleasant MK made the invitations process for us! Mary Kay went above and beyond to make sure that my sister and I were beyond happy with every detail. Mary Kay is patient, kind, funny, courteous and understanding. She did not try to up sell us or con us into buying anything we did not need. It is evident that Mary Kay has her customer's best interests in mind. Planning a wedding is stressful, but I know that anything I ask of MK will be done correctly and efficiently! It is a joy to work with her! Go and see her for everything wedding and beyond. I'm not going to stop here, we plan to order our wedding ceremony programs, wedding menu cards, place cards, bridesmaid's & groomsmen's gifts etc. from MK. Mary Kay, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I found a perfect anniversary card for my husband and also bought some tissue paper and a gift bag (a little more than $1 each).

And it was really sad when they all closed, however I was very excited when this one opened and actually grew in size. I've been here multiple times however, I finally decided to do a review on them. I gave them the two stars for several reasons. There's never enough staff here and on top of that although this is located in the very nice Oak Brook mall, they are facilities for their restrooms are absolutely appalling and disgusting. It is not only filthy, but they are so worn down and worn out. The only positive about this place is that they are constantly stocked with product and really cute trinkets and things to purchase regardless. Of course they have a little café as well, but even that needs a real facelift and renovation. Because even sitting here in the furniture is disgusting. So if you do need to buy anything, I suggest you come here you buy it and you leave and sit down somewhere else to enjoy your cup of coffee if you do that or to actually sit down and enjoy reading whatever it is, you purchased elsewhere
