I was there in 2008 for CHA and I don't think I could find any to visit. I did go to Paper Source which I loved but I'm not from the US so it was a treat for me!

A google map search showed me just one that didn't appear to be an MLM. It's called Craft Fancy, and I just added it to the Central US Region LSS list. Their blog and calendar look current, but you'll probably want to call them before going there just in case. Have a fun trip!

I live in Chicago, and that's definitely a resounding no for the city! I buy all of my stuff online.

Chicago is big. Are you going into the actual city or a suburb?
Craft Fancy is great but in no way, shape or form is it even close to the city. It's in Arlington Heights. It's a wonderful store and I'd suggest visiting it but you'll need transportation to get there.

It's a lady from my FB group who are visiting Chicago this summer. I'll pass the info on. Thanks guys

FYI......I live not that far from IL/Hannah's in Antioch. They do have scrapping things but not nearly as much as they had years ago. Craft Fancy in Arlington Heights is packed with merchandise. You can get their from 294 going north. Google the directions. It is pretty easy. You'd get off at Willow road heading east. Then continue (I don't know how far) to Arlington Heights Rd.

They're Norwegian, so my guess is that they'll be flying.

Hannah's is my absolute favorite! They have all the current stuff and their kits are adorable!
