Craft Outlet

"I love The Craft outlet! There are always neat craft supplies at very discounted prices. It's Hit or miss depending on what you're looking for. They always have tons of scrapbooking items. But a wide variety of everything else!"

"Traveled from out-of-state in August with family to enjoy nature spots in Michigan. The Craft Outlet was put on the itinerary as the only non-nature "must stop". I was looking forward to a decent selection of crafts. The website makes this place look like a crafter's little slice of heaven. On the plus side: easy to find, good parking, friendly staff. A staff person told me that the business was under new ownership a few weeks before I was there in mid-August. That was the explanation for the really scarce inventory and low variety of crafts represented. I was additionally told that inventory would fill out the large display floor over the upcoming month. So - overall a huge disappointment at my visit. Recommend calling before you go to get an update."

"Oh my goodness, this is a giant selection of craft items. The nice thing is, this is a TRUE outlet. Edited to add: the stock rotates every week. They are also adding a retail section to the store SOON. Stay tuned! Everything is already 50% off, and then each week different sections of the store (kids crafts, paint & paintables, knitting, floral, etc) are discounted even further! 40-50% off the already reduced prices! Amazing. I got a fantastic self-healing rotary cutting board mat here for $8 instead of the $60 it normally would cost! Huge assortment of knitting, crafting, scrapbooking, painting, wood burning, acrylic, watercolor, finger paint, markers, stamps, floral, spray paint, wood crafts, craft books, etc. Wonderful, friendly staff. Organized & laid out very well. This is a newer location, though it’s in an old factory. The new location has been wonderful! Very open & airy, and it’s fun to see what parts of the old factory they’ve kept on display. TIP—> you can follow them on Facebook or receive emails to get a “secret word” and receive an extra 50% off a non-sale item (of course all items are already discounted, this is just for the weekly sales). TIP—> they have a punchcard you can buy for $10, and every $10 you spend, you get a punch. Once filled, you get $15 to spend at the store. It may not sound like much, but with their prices so low, I often have to work hard to get UP TO $10!! You really get a lot for your $$$."

"The Craft Outlet is a cool warehouse that has been converted into a doscount craft store. The space is well organized and the deals are amazing. Expect to spend 30-90% less than the retail stores. They have weekly deals and items up front that are less than a dollar. Check out their email newsletter for the best deals and secret passwords to get even more of a discount. Pretty much the crafters dream. Plus they have some pet stuff and other items from time to time."

"This place is so wonderful that I have to give it five stars, but I secretly want to give it one star so that other people don't find all the great deals I want! It's an outlet, so you never quite know what is going to be there. What they have is sold at fantastic prices, even more so on weeks that your products of interest are on sale. There are usually a couple categories of items on sale each week (like craft basics, needlecraft, memory, sewing & quilting, etc.), and then the deals are truly phenomenal. Fair warning: it's a big old building, if you go in the summer it does get HOT."
