"Jo-Ann Revamps Stores
July 30, 2010
Hudson, Ohio-based Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores announced new product offerings and changes to its store layout, according to RetailingToday.com. Jewelry aisles will increase from 88 ft. to 120 ft. in the company’s larger stores, making room for new selections of beads, chains, hair embellishments and epoxy jewelry. The retailer has also added an exclusive line of paper crafting sets dedicated to celebrating "Life's Little Occasions," and a better organized yarn selection, according to the report. "
So, that's what they're doing in our JoAnn's here. It's been a mess for the last couple months.
