I chose to work directly with them instead of going through a third party to have some high-end fleeces and vests embroidered with our company logo and they turned out absolutely beautiful. One of the women who worked on our pieces has 20 years of experience and it shows in the quality of the embroidery. Their prices are very fair and worth the drive to Westland to drop things off and pick them up; I'm sure you could also have items shipped directly to them to be embroidered. Every time I went in, they seemed to be very busy, but they always made time for me and even put a rush on an order for me when I left out a few pieces. Thanks to them, I still hit my deadline! I worked directly with Marisa, but everyone I met was very helpful and the process was very smooth. I look forward to working with them every year.

Bead Alley is in a little strip mall on the west side of Saline. Just a hair east and on the other…read moreside of the street from Two Twelve Arts Center. The south side of US-12. (See my photos.) Why did it take me so long to finally decide to stop by the new location? I always told myself I was too busy. But yesterday I finally told myself, "Just for a little while." Glad I did! The owner is friendly. Oh, I wish my memory were better. I think her name is Arlene. Please forgive me if I got it wrong. I told her that I'm mainly into quilting. She said that a lot of crazy quilters come to her for beads. Crazy quilting uses a lot of embroidery and embellishments such as beads and charms, with the patterns of the fabric providing background interest. She told me that I could bring my bracelet repair project and work on it there, to get advice, because she knows so much more about beading than I do, and also in case I just need a few beads to finish. I'm gonna do that. Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Bead-Alley-Saline-MI/164092560298590

The owner was very knowledgable about different types of beads and various stitches. Only two small complaints: 1) the space is a bit cramped which made it a little difficult to maneuver 2) they currently only accept cash or check, but the owner said that next week she should have the new card reader up and running. I will definitely be returning!

I have typically brought designs to them to be applied to tee shirts, jerseys, hoodies, etc. Their design team is outstanding to help with small tweaks and adjustments to make my designs the best they can be on the product. They offer options and always take the time to describe the process and adjustments if any. This year I came in with a 'last minute' project (a tee shirt for my daughter's graduation party) and they were able to turn it around in less than a week in order for me to surprise her with it at the party. The customer service is just THE BEST here and the prices are absolutely reasonable!! I am a lifetime customer!

There's a lot here if you're willing to dig through! There's a vintage area with tons of old, vintage papers, photographs, sheet music, postcards, photo albums, negatives, etc. Loads of scrap fabric and remnants, yarn, embroidery floss, notions, scrap paper, scrapbooking materials, stickers, stencils, even industrial supplies like foam scraps, and household materials like pill bottles (empty of course), lids, jars, storage containers, craft kits, old calendars, big bins of wine corks, pens, etc. They have a HUGE selection of old National Geographic issues, some going back as far as the 1930s. Perfect for collages or collecting. They also have a few machines like scales, microscopes, sewing machines, etc. As well as a few tools, wood and metal working items, just bits and bobs of tons of things to sort through. It changes all the time so stop in regularly to see what they get in! And the best part? It's all SO cheap and keeps all these things out of landfills (56K lbs just last year)! Upcycling FTW! Some things are in better condition than others but if you're the creative type you will be inspired by all you can find here. And since things are so affordable you can really take risks and noodle around without worrying about wasting your supplies. Want more inspo?
