flower factory?

I am making my own centerpieces and bouquets...and was wondering who has been to the flower factory and what you think.  I live about an hour away so its a little bit of a trip for me, but I am willing to travel if they have good stuff/deals.  any input is appreciated! Thanks!

    Are you referring to the one in Canton or the one in Cleveland (that you are an hour away from)? Personally, I've not been to FF. I did a lot of my 'wedding decor shopping' at Pat Catan's, Old Time Pottery and Marc's.

    I love the Flower Factory! I plan on getting my centerpieces and containers for the candy buffet there, as well as ribbon, candles and frames.

    If you have not checked out save-on-crafts.com   -- this would also be a great place to look for flowers/centerpieces, etc.

    Old Time Pottery is up on W. 130th in Parma Hts. like sort of by the southland shopping center. They're kind of a discount decorating warehouse store with silk flowers, home goods like lamps, curtains, wall art, etc. and they also have some dishes, scrapbooking stuff, holiday decorations, discount sheets and towels, etc. http://www.oldtimepottery.com/

    I LOVE IT for so many reasons. They are inexpensive and don't require a membership. And they have so much stuff. The store is enormous. :)

    I went there a few days ago and they honestly donr have much besides candles and cheap looking favors.  Yes they do have guest books and things like that, but nothing really super different or interesting....

    I always suggest making a day trip up to go to Old Time Pottery, Flower Factory and Hobby Lobby (I found the best silk stems at Hobby Lobby for bouquets, with OTP having the floral I used for my centerpieces)  I get random stuff at Flower Factory (I got my double votives there and OOT gift bags since those were the cheapest.).  OTP has unique glass (perfect for my Candy buffet) while Flower Factory has standard sizes and shapes and better pricing for buying in bulk.
