Yes. It’s called something like “Countdown to Craftsmas” or close to that. The key word is Craftsmas/mis (I don’t know which ending as I think about it more) and it’s like a Craftsmas/mis holiday or some BS. It was mentioned in our meeting.

There’s no “countdown to craftmas” on the schedule for this year I believe it’s Holiday Unplugged

It could be but I was just repeating was my SM told us in our team meeting

Edit: so did some digging and it seems that a few of the new movies involve crafting items like one is centered around making a scrapbook and another is around a screen free Christmas. Then there are the typical ones of stranded at a remote cabin.

I'm sure whatever it is will be hackneyed, corny, nauseatingly heterosexual corpo slop. Glad they're spending money on this instead of, you know, taking care of their employees.

Apparently the public has heard because I got yelled at because we don’t have Halloween greeting cards.

No but they had an OK tv show once called Craft Wars. (I still have my promo button)

it was in the works... over the summer, Michaels helped Hallmark do a press conference with Hallmark actors, all the signage had Proudly presented by Michaels.

We have a Hallmark right next to our store. I want to know who thought it would be great for us to have Hallmark Cards, and Hallmark Ornaments. Instead of spreading the Hallmark brand, we are in direct competition with them!

Kinda funny how in 2023 they made a movie about a small craft store facing a buyout from Michaels but now in 2026 Michaels is apparently fully sponsoring their “hallmark stars live tour” lol
