The store is huge, the selection is varied and extensive, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is convenient with plenty of parking. I wish the layout were a bit different; I did find it difficult to navigate, and the location of the rest rooms could be more clearly marked. Otherwise, a wonderful experience as always, with very reasonable prices.

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.

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!!

Scrapbook stores have been struggling in the recent years and I want to support my local store. Unfortunately, it has been difficult to find on trend and affordable items at this shop for a number of reasons. First, the store is organized by theme, not by brand or by kind as in most stores we're all probably familiar with. This works out great if you plan to do a camping layout, a baby layout, or a holiday themed project. This is not so great for those of us who shop by category instead of theme. I usually have to walk around the aisles and browse really hard to weed through the theme items to look for what I want. (To be fair, Thickers & alphabet stickers are against one wall of the shop, and the albums and stamps are in one general area.) Second, the store has limited brand selection. They carry a lot of different items, but for some reason, they are usually not the on trend items that are current and popular. For example, I was looking for some things from October Afternoon, Studio Calico, Elle Studio, and Amy Tangerine and I was told that they either didn't carry it, or that the products they did carry were from old(er) releases. Bummer. Lastly, the items here cost a little bit more unless you have a coupon or they are running a special promotion. During my last visit, an item that I saw elsewhere was priced at $2.50 and it was $5.99 here. That's a more extreme example, but it made me wonder about the price difference. On the upside, the staff here is friendly and welcoming. They try to be helpful. Scrapbook Peddler has also relocated to a newer and much brighter location than their previous store. I am happy that there is a local scrapbook store in town, but due to aforementioned reasons, I may not visit as often. This is probably worth checking out if you're already in the area, but not something to go out of your way for.

I know it is not "essential" but I'm glad this store is still open. I wanted to buy some frames for…read moreposters and ordered them online for pickup. Unfortunately I didn't see the parking spot for curbside (it's by the entrance from Tittabawasee) so I went inside. Front and center there is hand sanitizer and stickers on the floor to recommend how far away to stand in line to check out. It was a little difficult to decipher where to pick up an order but the cashiers were happy to get it for me. They offered to take the frames out to the car for me as well but I didn't need help. Good customer service and I'm glad to see they are doing their best to enforce safe standards.

Once they're back in stock I will be buying a pair of 10 dumbbells too and look for other great deals. I noticed they sell various type of charging cables which look like decent quality for a decent price, other stores sell similar cables for outrageous prices.
