Simple Pleasures is in Utica or Sterling Heights (on the border) Scrapbook Tree is in Shelby Twp. and Emporium is at 46667 Hayes Rd. in Shelby or Clinton Twp. They are all very large stores and are only a few miles from one another. I'm planning on coming up at Thanksgiving and going shopping. We had 3 stores down here 2 have closed and even the chain stores have about 1/2 of what the Michigan stores carry.
Thanks for all the info......and when you come up in November, you'll have all these added stores you can visit!!.....lol

Wow, someone from my area! If you go back up a few post you'll my earilier post and I listed a number of them in the there including Scrapbook Tree but you might find some you didn't know about.

Do you by change know the names of the two in Romeo? I know one is in Frontier Town and the other is on the way out of town on the other end and around a couple turns, which isn't far with Romeo being small. Both are right on old Van Dyke.

Now I know where you were spending your time today! I caught you! I have a couple of stores I *KNOW* you'd be interested in. The only problem is that they're a bit more than a day trip, but once you get here, we'll provide the personal taxi service. We've been talking about this for years, and you know what they say........."JUST DO IT!"

I'm coming too!
I'm having some trouble getting info on those Romeo stores because DH (the man that thinks he knows everything) can't remember the mile roads any better than I can. If I don't get it figured out your not missing that much, they aren't big and the one has a cubby hole of stamps if that's your main interest.
When is this trip taking place, I might get lucky and get you a coupon for the Scrapbook Tree if they have one out at that time.

LOL.....I'm cracking up sitting here reading this.....My hubby is the same way about directions (although, I think he could get lost in a paper sack....lol) I always drive and there's been less fights and I told you so comments that way.....LOL Just get me some landscapes to look for.....I'll find them!!.....LOL

My trip is planned for July 6th!! That would be awesome if you could get a coupon.....especially since the price of gas jumped like it did yesterday!! UGH!! It was $2.79 in the morning and by mid afternoon it jumped to $3.09....highway robbery, I say!!

Yeah, I'll tell DH I'm going on a trip with a person I've never met before and he'll be sure and have me put away....I just don't know where but they better have stamps, carstock and ink!

The coupons for that Scrapbook Tree are always during the middle part of the month. I didn't get a flyer this time and it should have been here by now so I'll have to stop in next time I'm near there. With gas prices we won't be taking a leisure little drive so often!

Okay lets see if we can get you to the Romeo stores. When you're coming into town from the south end you would be looking for Frontier Town on the east side of the Van Dyke. It's a little country looking strip mall with a Christmas shop in an old house in front of it close to the street. The stamp/scrapbooking store is right on the corner of the strip mall.
The other store is on the other end of town on the west side of Van Dyke and that road makes a couple sharp curves first left then right. Look for the Salvation Army store.

I hope you have a great time, it sounds like fun!

Default Muskegon...

My favorite store in Muskegon, MI is Scrapbook 101. I lived overseas for 3 years and now I'm in NC...Muskegon is my hometown. I'm going back there while hubby is deployed and I can't wait to visit their new store...supposed to be 3 times the size of the old one!

Also, If you went to Northville that's right by Novi..which there is going to be a huge convention there I think in August... Plus the Three Oaks Mall, I think that is what it's called is HUGE if you wanted to do other shopping also. Stampeddler wasn't AMAZING I didn't think but it's a good central location for other shopping.

Default Road trip

Something to think about for Auntie Amy's...

I used to go on Saturday all the time. Now when I attend, I go on Sunday, get there first thing, then do the road trip to stamp stores in close proximity. I have found that Sunday is less crowded, have had almost 1:1 instruction with make-n-takes, and the atmosphere is more relaxed and less frenzed. Although I do think that over the last few years the numbers of booths have dropped dramatically, there is still a very nice selection of rubber stamping stuff and tons to spend money on. The convention usually has a booklet they give out to attendees and there are usually coupons and advertisements to local stores. I live an hour away (in Macomb Township) from Stamp Peddler in Novi and usually only make 1-2 trips per year there. Last year we ended up there after Auntie Amy's and again had time for make-n-takes and won some give-aways, which is always a fun thing. A few years before at convention time, we went to Stamp Peddler in mid afternoon and did flower punching with the demonstrator for almost an hour without any one else at the table. Have been to some nice stores in the Livonia/Westland area too.

Scrapbook Tree, Scraps-n-Stamps and the Simple Pleasures Store on M-59 are great stores too and I frequently shop them. Big selection of scrapbooking stuff in all of them! Wish Scraps-n-Stamps had more stamps, but all in all it is a great store with friendly help and good prices. I cannot remember how much stamping stock they have in Simple Pleasures either--it is in the same shopping complex as the Wal-Mart and AMC theatre at the SW corner of M-59 Hall Road and Mound Road. The Write Stuff in on the NW corner of 21 mile and Gratiot in Macomb Twp.

I think the Romeo stamp store is called the Artful Stamper on Old Van Dyke. It is a small store front but had some nice selections of papers and stamps.

There are several Michael's and Joann's in the area--Shelby Twp and Chesterfield, and I have found some nice clearance prices on embellishments and other scrapping and stamping items. Usually a nice way to round out the day!!!

Have fun!

Gwen

I linked the web site in her blue name so you can check it out. Stamps and lots of paper and supplies. A grand opening sale going on, check it on the Current Newsletter on the left.
Went to Karen's yesterday while I was in Grand Blanc, and it is a great store! Tons of scrappin' stuff, a decent number of stamps, loads of papers, stickers, and embellishments, and the women are sooooo nice! I was glad to hear about them, and even more glad that I went! Thanks for the tip, Roxie!

Default stores in s. Mich

Someone has already mentioned Stamp Peddler Plus - it is great. There is a store in Livonia called Stampin and Scrappin on Plymouth road. There is Scrapbook Zone in Farmington Hills on 12 mile rd near Halstead.

Have you been in the Apple Tree in Clare?
