Hey all! I'm a manager at Michaels, and since Joanns is gone I figured I could help answer any questions you have about art supplies!

Individual DMC floss is .79¢ each now. But Loops and Threads (our brand) sells packs of floss. I think it's 250 skeins for ~$35 but I'll check tomorrow

@scarhead12 it wasn't hard at all, and it's the best job I've ever had. I have worked at 3 different Michaels now and I love the people, the customers, and the work I do

Do you recommend getting a pair of fiskar’s sewing snips for cutting embroidery string for bracelets. Also, craziest customer experience?

@just_mere I would actually recommend getting either Loops and Threads or DMC embroidery scissors. i personally use the gold DMC embroidery scissors, I think they are $11.99. Craziest customer experience? I have so many of them. Most recently we had someone call in and ask if we frame puzzles. I told them that we do, and then they asked "Do we have to put the puzzle together first?" .... yes. yes you do. |

Lol, imagine you putting puzzles together for a customer all day 😂 Also, its cheaper to buy embroidery floss at hobby lobby, I got 36 skeins for 3.49 and I don't want to spend excessive money on stuff
