If you're looking for a unique gift for someone (including yourself) and a lovely day out at the same time, then make plans to shop here!

I found none of the basic items I was looking and had to order everything online from another vendor. I wish they had more products cause I do not like shopping from Michael's and wish there was a good local alternative in ABQ. Overall I would not recommend shopping here.

The woman who owns the shop is so lovely - she is always extremely helpful and just could not be nicer. I have bought lots of things for myself here, and more than a few presents for other people. The shop has all kinds of interesting art, sculpture, wall hangings, jewelry, hats, clothing - it's a great place! She travels to South America to buy much of it, and it's all very beautifully made. All of the art is not just beautiful, but also priced very reasonably. I always know that if I need a gift, I can stop in there and find something great. I once got a necklace/earring set made of dyed cantaloupe seeds - really amazing, beautiful stuff. This shop is wonderful - I love it, and you will too!

And, as an extra option, you can choose to have this creative fun under black lights with glowing paint? Yes please. This cool spot provides you with a poncho, but I recommend wearing shoes and pants that can get messy. The only thing you'll need to clean up is yourself! They took care of everything - set up & clean up. We had a great time. Welcome to the list of creative & fun things to do in Albuquerque, Chatter Paint! They're new and working out the best ways to offer this space, but were really open to feedback and genuinely friendly and wonderful. I recommend just booking it, and going in and letting them walk you through your options. You'll have a blast. We will be back!

I usually enjoy shopping at Michael's because the store has a great selection of craft supplies and…read moreI can almost always find what I need even if the prices are higher than most shops. Unfortunately, the checkout experience completely ruined this visit. There were only self-checkout registers open and just one employee assisting customers. When one of the registers double-scanned an item, I needed help to fix it. It took nearly 20 minutes to get assistance because the single employee was overwhelmed helping multiple people. I understand staffing challenges happen, but waiting that long just to fix a scanning error is frustrating and unacceptable. If the store is going to rely primarily on self-checkout, there needs to be adequate staff available to assist customers quickly when issues come up. Great products, but the checkout process seriously needs improvement.

Basic service. Selection is great. Lots of Art stuff. Value good. A bit more than hobby lobby.read more
