I stopped by to check out framing for a large painting I had bought from an estate sale because it had become detached from its frame and nails were poking out of it! A store manager/framing dept manager, David, was extremely helpful & friendly in getting me to the decision point. He measured the frame & found it to be18" by 24". He showed me their pre-made selections in that size on one of their shelves. Much to my surprise, I saw a beautiful, richly-colored walnut wood-with-black-trim that I liked! After discussing some others, I said, let's do it! My painting has gorgeous Mr. ^ Mrs. Cardinal in the forefront with city bldgs & a horse carriage w/ M/M riders in it. Heartwarming...
David took it to the back room to work on this project peeling off the masking tape, removing the nails, cleaning the glass on the new frame, inserting the picture, putting on the new backing & finishing with a strong silver cord going across the back with which to hang it! Beautiful, quick, knowlegeable work. David has been with Michael's for 21 years. He is skillful, artistic - as he himself is an artist! - friendly, and easy to work with. I highly recommend this location & this framer. The price was reasonable - for frame and labor it was a few...

Read moreThe Michaels store in Mansfield is awesome! We always go there for craft supplies for some sort of project. Last month I bought supplies for local kids to make posters for the police department. I told the lady at the register what we were doing and she was so sweet and showed interest in our project. Today we went back for supplies so my daughter could make a 3D chloroplast model. Well we found a green oval shaped pumpkin that was damaged and we got it for a great deal and bought all of the accessories to decorate it. We had the same cashier and she showed interest in this project too. I am going to find out who she is so I can let her manager know that she is awesome. Aside from her, we constantly have to ask questions while shopping and the employees are all so helpful! I am a happy rewards member and can always find coupons in my text messages from Michael's or online promo codes for use in the...
