I think the value was fair for the experience but would have loved it if the candle was larger. Still, it's a medium size candle and real crystals and other adornments were included in the price. Hallie, the instructor, was wonderful and made the class feel welcoming and easy to follow. It was great getting to know the other students too, and doing manifestation work as a group. I made a eucalyptus-scented candle and loved that we got to choose and decorate our own crystal adornments, dried flowers, and shells. Such a creative, relaxing experience. They also offer other classes like sound baths, somatic dance, etc. Highly recommend if you're looking for something fun and unique to do!

I went here to get some beading supplies and I found what I needed pretty quickly. The prices are…read morereasonable and there were several options to choose from. There was only one cashier but there were self-checkout machines so I was able to check out pretty quickly. I did come back to pick up an online order since I got a discount from ordering online. One of the employees asked me for my last name then told me to look at the pickup section to find my order. I did find that odd and a little less secure than I would like. That means anyone could have come in the store and looked at the last names on the pickup bags and told the employees that it's their order. Nonetheless, it has been a pretty seamless experience going to this store. I would def order from them again since the prices and options are reasonable.

Tried again, this time I just sent my husband to store to buy, it said they had three of the item. He came home with two that were the wrong blade. I am frantically making last minute things for my grandsons first birthday. Before I send my husband back I call to ask someone to check and the person I spoke to said online is never accurate, I said that's ok but please just check shelf before I send my husband. He refused. Called another store twice as far from my house but they were pleasant and helpful. I will never shop at the Southcenter Michael's again, I would rather drive to another store for sure.

Not a big deal most times but when you're measured for a project multiple items it is SUPER frustrating. Suggestion, if you go in here for material ask them to measure twice. Will not shop here again.

I had not been to Running Stitch Fabrics until my friends and I took a Sashiko 101 and 201 class…read more This shop is located in historic downtown Kent. There is on-street parking. The class offered by Running Stitch Fabrics was taught by Malinda Shirley. Malinda is a great teacher with an infectious positive energy, a lot of patience and knowledge. She brought a lot of samples and projects she has made. It was exciting to see the possibilities of incorporating sashiko into tote bags, quilts, placemats, etc. The quilt shop carries a wide assortment of notions, sashiko supplies, fabric, patterns, books and more. There are quite a few quilt samples hanging on the walls and on display in the windows. There is a long arm machine that you can rent after taking a basic longarm class or they offer long arm services. The owner Alice and her staff are very nice. I highly recommend Running Stitch Fabrics.

A hidden gem for stationery lovers!…read more ​I spotted Mochithing near the Costco on Andover St and initially thought it was a mochi shop--boy, was I wrong! It's actually a stationery paradise filled with stickers, pens, calendars, and so much more. It is definitely worth a visit. ​They have testers for their pens, so you can try them all out before buying. I personally fell in love with the Lana and Tuxedo Cat items and the Houseplants collection. The store is packed with cute character goods and unique finds, making it perfect for both gifts and personal treats. ​Prices start as low as $2.75, so there's something for every budget. The staff is incredibly kind, and the atmosphere allows you to browse at your own pace. Plus, having a parking lot makes it super convenient. You're bound to find something you love here!

What a beautiful and well thought out business. I was invited to participate in their trunk show…read morethis past weekend and enjoyed pretty much everything about this yarn lover's paradise. I was immediately impressed upon entering the store. It felt as though I had crossed the other side of the wardrobe and ended up in Knitting Narnia. Shelves of beautiful fabrics, yarns, and so many more items you didn't know you needed, but now that you've seen them you just gots to have them. There are tables and chairs nestled about for groups to hang out and knit while enjoying a coffee or snack from the Firebird Cafe located in the back of the shop. The cafe has a lot of selection of sweet and savory snackums including gluten free items; however, when I asked about contamination risk for celiac peeps they weren't sure how safe it was, so I stuck to the hot chocolate which was hot..and chocolaty..and full of goodness. May I also note that they serve wine and I am just so on board with that. Wine, knitting, and someone brought their cat in on leash... I see no reason to ever leave this place. This shop offers tons of events like the one I participated in this weekend where they invite local artists to set up inside their store and peddle their wares. The excitement from their regulars the moment the doors opened was palpable. They were just all about getting their paws on the fun, beautiful, and handy items for sale. In addition to events like these, this shop stays super involved with their locals by hosting classes that range well beyond knitting and crocheting. Every individual I interacted with here brought their best energy and enthusiasm and were so upbeat I started wondering what the secret these knitters are putting in their herbal tea... and if they'd share some with me. If you're a crafty fellow definitely check this place out. You might just walk out with the find of a lifetime, some magical knitter's tea, or even get to pet a cat on a leash...the possibilities are endless.

He was profiled for zero reason. He had the receipt in hand and has never shoplifted from this store. Apparently, the security person they had would do this to many people just because he thought he could. Not sure if he is there anymore. I have written checks to FM with no problem. Now, I can't since Certegy considers me (as well as my husband) "risks". Why? We both are in our 60's, have never had dishonored or bounced checks, semi retired but still working. Is it because we don't write many checks? Certegy uses AI technology. From what I have been reading, there are thousands of individuals like me who have had the same problems with this scam company, various businesses, and the banks don't understand why. The company doesn't even give valid reasons. My credit score also above 650, so that's not the problem. Kroger/FM would be doing every shopper a big favor by dropping Certegy and using another system. It is very embarrassing to have your check declined for zero reason whatsoever.

It was a large Giclee so I was a little concerned as I have not ever worked with a lab that refused both guide print and proof. It was a reproduction of my wife's oil painting so color matching is important to us. Communication was over the phone and email so I might have gotten better service in person. A bit defensive when answering questions. Maybe it was me? or they are just too busy because they do good work at reasonable prices.
