    A member of staff and a customer were openly discussing about how trans people are "confused" and…read moreother such comments. Being trans myself, I don't really feel welcome there anymore.

    Word on the street is this is that place for Hippies and weirdo's that like swords. I've heard it…read moreall.. "oh, you mean that weird store, with the junk." It's not junk. It's called handicrafts, crafts made by hand. Most likely hands of skilled crafts people from distant lands. I'd guess most of it comes from South and Central Americas. But yes, they do carry some funky items like wacky looking candles, strange edged swords, knives and such. I dig handicraft items such as the bracelets, anklets and neck pieces. Here they keep many of these in large bowls with many pieces overlapping each other. Lots of this stuff can be purchased for as low as five to ten dollars per item. I've shopped here a few times and realized a few things. The counter staff are usually unaware as to what or where the stuff comes from. General knowledge only. Many of the pieces I've purchased in the past fell apart within a few uses. Very important that you test out the strength or elasticity of the pieces before buying. (Pull it, stretch it and twist it) I have a few that fell apart and since this place is located three hundred miles away, there's nothing I can do with them. I have one men's bracelet (purchased here) that I've had now for a couple years purchased for $5 dollars which is as good as some pieces I've picked up at festivals in Chicago which came overseas from Ghana. The last time I was in Saginaw the mall was looking bleak, so I hope this store stays around for some time. Often time's jewelry made from wood or other raw materials are hard to find with a decent price at American craft or beading stores. These pieces are usually exported from countries where they are made in mass quantities and the price will always be low.

    This location is more 'open' than the bay city location in the sense that all of the tables are in…read morethe same area and there are no room dividers. The selection is a little smaller than the bay city location, but you will still be overwhelmed with options when you go in. The girls were helpful as usual. I also didn't know that they stay open late a few days a week which I thought was kind of cool. When you get there, you don't need to 'check in' with the desk. Find a piece that you like and start to scope out what colors you want to paint said item. Pro tip: the color example tiles are Velcro backed so you can move them around to compare with other tiles. They will also have you stick your name and date on the bottom of the piece. The workers will get you setup with 4 or 5 colors to start. They also have tape, smaller brushes and sponges up at the counter. Once you pick a spot, they come to you with your paint colors. You can refill on your own or have them help you. Your choice. If you run out of time, you can bring your project home with you and visit again another day. Once done, they will have you pay and get your contact info. It takes about a week to get them fired but they call when they are ready.

    I made a few pieces at their place in Midland a few years back and had a great time!! I made a cup…read moreand saucer as well as a frog bank with huge red lips!! It became my best friend's daughter's graduation gift from high school she used it for kicking around money on the weekends. I have to say getting my pieces was made difficult as I was told a time and day and when I came to the store it was closed and my pieces weren't even in yet. Hopefully that changes in their new place. Would like to try them again sometime with my soon to be daughter in law and her mom!! Would even bring out of towners with me too!!
