When you think of crafting supplies, you think of Pat Catan's. It has been a staple to people who enjoy doing DIY projects in the Pittsburgh area, but they announced yesterday that they will be closing all of their stores.
Michaels said it will close all 36 of its Pat Catan's craft and floral stores in Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia and Michigan.
According to the CEO of the Michaels Company, "Has struggled in the face of industry headwinds." The Michaels Corporation bought Pat Catan's in 2016.
Unfortunately, people aren't happy about it.. The reactions on Twitter are of pure devastation.
I will NEVER step foot in #Michaels again! #PatCatans will always be the best! https://t.co/UrEBOb4Y7j

On a positive note, it's possible that as many as 12 stores will reopen as Michael's craft stores.
Our Pinterest projects won't be the same without you Pat Catan's!
