I wasn't too thrilled about the concoction of smells. Items here are heavily overpriced. Never pay full price. Always wait and use coupons. Online shopping will save you slightly more. I found it funny that one item was 25% off online but in store it was listed as "buy one get one 50% off" which works out to be literally 25% off one---but if you buy it in the store they force you to get two and "technically" spend more money haha. I do like the fact that they carry some items here that other craft stores don't but the pricing can be a bit ridiculous.

UPDATE 12/16/2024:…read more This is an update partly to say that Paula's Hallmark Shop at Crossroads Shopping Center, is now Trudy's Hallmark Shop, since my original review in 2019. And also to say that they now accept MobilePay (ApplePay, and GooglePay). Today a friend of mine and I stopped into the store to get some funny Christmas cards. He complained about the high prices of their Hallmark cards. Me, I bought a 5 x 7 comical Christmas card today (see pic) which was $3.85 after tax. This is a little pricey, but their selection is supposed to be much better than at most stores. Though today, I did not notice their selection being as good as I would hope. Perhaps a lot of people have already bought Christmas cards here this year. Nevertheless, my friend and I have found suitable cards today, Merry Christmas, and a happy new year!

I haven't been to a Hallmark store in forever until recently when I was like, "Oh yeah, there's a…read moreHallmark here. I should go check it out for my friend who is obsessed with Hallmark movies!" And there I was off to, at a Hallmark store after many years at Crossroads Mall. Trudy's Hallmark Shop is a typical Hallmark store. It has all the knickknacks that you'd expect at a Hallmark, with many themed gift items, Hallmark greeting cards, house accessories, frames, baby's first album, you name it. I visited this store when I was out Christmas shopping and immediately thought to come here when I wanted to get a gift for my friend who loves Hallmark movies. It was perfect because at Trudy's Hallmark Shop, they had an entire section of Hallmark-themed gifts! Now that I think of it, I am not sure where else Hallmark is in Bellevue, but am glad to know that there's one here at Crossroads. Staff was friendly and helped me find a gift for my friend, and dogs are welcomed! Now that I've been reacquainted with Hallmark, I'll be sure to come here for my Hallmark-loving friend's birthday and for other gift items.

The instructors were not very approachable so not a good value for money for elementary kids. We had to buy all the recommended and specified art materials which are used by adult beginner artist $32 watercolors and expensive Chalk Pastels from Rembrandt brand. We were told these are must have supplies to be eligible for the classes there. Honestly we were very surprised to give our elementary kids artist grade materials. We didn't have a say as we were told these are essential materials for art classes here. Everyone who has money can buy the best and most expensive art materials they want but for nurturing talent we need something else not just big spending. I too have a good knowledge of fine art but didn't want to argue. I would not be sending my kid again even after it reopens. Thanks for your service .
