I have to say that, this Terra Losa location is a store which I have brought my art prints in to…read morehave framed several times, and it has consistently blown me away with the amazing level of customer service the provide... Today, I left the adjacent Staples absolutely furious and disgusted with the complete incompetence and degenerate so called service and management (another story, but seriously, horrible). I was concerned that I was not in good frame of mind to conduct business with specific and costly art framing services, but I needed to use my day off to get it done... The framing staff member Kianna, was exemplary. She was extremely courteous and used her expertise to help me with my price consciousness and particular aesthetic interests. She was not condescending in any way and explained very clearly what her processes were and listened to what I was saying regarding my needs, hopes and timelines. She paid attention and came with suggestions and guidance in a way which showed me that she had my interests in mind. If I were to show or share to any service people what I would want and expect in really good customer service, I would playback the experience I had. In fact, I left feeling redeemed because she also clued me into the sale/deal which was within my timeline forthcoming and saved me a huge amount (not even kidding). It is hardly ever which I would go out of my way to share positive review of corporate chain stores, but, as they say, it is people which make the business good bad or in this case great. Full credit to Kianna, her team of coworkers and the management of the Terra Losa Michaels for turning my night from completely disgusted (disgraceful Staples in the same plaza), into very thankful and pleased/satisfied. I would go so far as to say, that they made my night. Well done.

Oh my wallet hurts every time I enter this store. Michaels has become my go to, not for crafts but…read morehome decor. I am a sucker for the by one get one frees and have stocked up over the years than more fancy baskets than is necessary. This Michaels also has a great selection of crafting supplies and you can always use a coupon found online for one regular priced item. The front lady at reception is always so lovely as well and they are now a puralator pick up zone!

This store is like Disneyland for people who love beading! The selection is beyond amazing here…read more You definitely need time to explore the store. Do not come here if you are in a rush and have a limited amount of time. I came here specifically to check out the beads made of semi precious stones. I had some ideas of what I wanted to buy before coming to the store. However, I left with more items than I initially planned. I found the products were clearly labelled with the type of beads, size of beads and prices. The store was well organized. I didn't have any difficulty finding what I was looking for. However, I did go around the store a few times to make sure I saw most things at least once. This store is jam packed! They have all the supplies you need to make beaded jewellery. For example, they sell different kinds of string, glue, jewellery findings and tools for jewellery making. They also have a random selection of costume jewellery, socks, purses, wallets, embroidery, sage, essential oils, books and so much more! This store had larger selection of beads than what you would find at a big box craft store. I found the prices pretty reasonable. I will definitely be back here when I need more supplies!

Making bead necklaces was a huge hobby for me years ago. Lately, I have been wanting to get back…read moreinto it. However, it can be difficult - and expensive - to find beads, charms, pendants, and all of the findings (the parts needed to put everything together, like clasps). Then I discovered Bead World. Beadmaking is not just for hippies anymore. This store is huge on the inside and features several rooms of charms, strings of beads made from different materials like glass or stone, ribbons and strings with clasps already attached (just add charms), and even a small selection of wallets, purses, and pre-made jewelry. The charms and pendants are incredible. There is a huge selection of religious ones for Christians and Buddhists, ones for sports, ones made from fimo clay, and even ones from Swarovski crystal. Many are from the Shag Wear designer line. I bemoaned the lack of Stars of David, but otherwise had to exert a great deal of self control. I got one horizontal fimo charm, a string of beads that look different than anything I own, and a bag of jump loops (used to connect pendants to a necklace). The prices are much lower than any other bead store I have visited and the selection is better. I am inspired and will be back.

Great supply store for serious paper crafters/stampers/scrapbookers. Rhea is very knowledgeable…read moreregarding all things to craft with paper! Although the store seems small she has more stuff packed into it than you can imagine. She has a vast variety of papers--colored cardstocks, designed papers, glitter, foil--you name it, she has it. She has a good variety of stamp pads, inks, reinkers, paint, and pens of every type color and brand. She carries more embellishments and stuff to keep your eyes roaming from one part of the store to the next. She keeps up with all the old, new and upcoming tools that a papercrafter could use or want. Also she keeps up with every embossing folders, stamps and dies out there that her Canadian supplier can get for her and she does her best to keep up with whats new and hot in the crafting world! If she doesn't have something on hand, she'll do her best to order it for you. Great store for both walk-ins and for those who can't make it in, she will do mail orders at a very reasonable cost. Really worth checking out!

Daniadown Home is your basic home decor store…read more The store has plenty to choose from when it comes to bedding, bath and duvets. Everything in the store is pretty simplistic. It doesn't have anything over the top and keeps all of its items pretty plain. So you don't have to worry about things not matching the rest of your house. They also offer items like rugs, clocks, cushions, soap, lotions & creams. It's a decent store that offers simplicity. The items won't go out of style.

The only pillows that won't kink my neck. I'm a side/stomach sleeper. And it's affordable too! Less than $50 for one queen size pillow. The warranty they have on them is great too. I suggest getting a water repellent case for them so it extends the lifetime, I didn't have one and I sleep with wet hair sometimes so that made it lose its fluffiness faster. Got a new one after 2 years. The people who work here are super friendly and helpful. I hope this place never goes out of business cause it's never busy in there. Recommend to everyone.

Artists & Artists to be ~ wannabes (me) UNITE!…read more I've been looking for canvas primer! The Gilded Rabbit off 149th & Stony Plain Road was the perfect place to shop for it! They had a cool collection of gifts for budding artists, kids and professionals. Tools for painting, carving, crafting & POTTERY!! my good friend just purchased a pottery wheel. I will be sure to tell her to visit the gilded rabbit. Two woman working we're helpful. I loved the smooth artsy jams playing over the radio. It got me in the mood to create. Prices are reasonable for a standalone art supply store is comparable to those you would find in a big box store. Although you would never find the selection or specialized tools in a big box location. Having said that ...... WHY NOT SUPPORT THE LITTLE GUY! If you've been holding out on art supplies or thinking about getting into an ARTSY MESS, I recommend checking out the gilded rabbit!

This is my "go to" spot for quality framing (I always get really good advice and is always an "easy…read morepeasy, lemon squeezy"process) as well as special art supplies for my classroom :-) Marion and her staff are very accommodating and SO knowledgeable about their inventory. As well, it is a great place to stop in and talk all things art, art supplies and everyday. This is what makes this place special....it is not only a shop to acquire art materials, but a space of community where you can drop in and see the wonderful things to buy AND to have a quick visit with those who work there and enjoy their customers business and their company :-)

I have mixed feelings on this one, but overall pretty positive!…read more This is a huuuuuge location and I was psyched to see the variety of products (and nicely organized, to boot!) Downsides: the primary staff member I spoke with about an ottoman wasn't overly friendly and definitely wasn't helpful, but the young man who lent me his measuring tape was a gem. I also found the "ambiance" of this place to be a bit yuck- the lighting was a strange shade of yellow that I think was raining on my parade. Overall I think this is a pretty great place to peruse for new household items and decor, and the prices are always great!
