Love this place. Amazing selection. No refunds. Store credit only.

Such a lovely spot, highly recommend to anyone in need of beautiful & unique trimming, embellishments, ribbons, buttons & more. I like that they have carts to use. It’s a spacious store & the staff is nice & helpful.

Has a lot of really cool patches, buttons, laces, and more. Ive been going here for years with someone who has been going here for way longer, personally a source of a lot of inspiration.

Must stop for all things crafty. I go even when I dont need anything. They have great displays of trends and inspiration. Beautiful selection and helpful people!

Nice place but extremely over priced merchandise, very expensive.

Plenty of options!

Amazing selection. Knowledge staff. Very fun store.

Amazing selection. Purchased buttons to replaced the cheap stuff on my coat and the coat now had an excellent news flair! Also purchased some ribbons and patches. I could have spent hours but then Id be broke! Staff was so very friendly and accommodating.

A nice selection of elastic ribbon. I use them to make hair ties.

M&J Trimming has everything you need to complete that project. Be carefull your creativity might get a little out of hand. I just ajilileate. I just made that word up. I get to many creative ideas. Ribbons, tassels, threads of all colors and sizes. Buttons of all shapes and even faces, freathers and boas.gold and silver sewn in sparkles. Wedding trimmings for veil, gown and shoes. They even have flowers for the bouquet. Be carefull!

I absolutely Love this place. They have every kind of trimming u could find. I wouldnt go anywhere else. 😍

Nowhere else to go for buttons, notions or trimming except M&J! Really worth just a visit to understand the magnitude of this place.

Amazing! there is a million buttons to choose from

Terrific customer service and fast shipping! I made a mistake on my order and customer service was quick to help me and I received the correct order and they shipped super fast. They also have buttons/craft supplies that are pretty hard to find! Love this place, cant recommend it enough.

Heard about this place for a long time, but didnt need anything. Then I bought a vintage overcoat from 1937, missing some horn buttons. I came with my button to match and they showed me to a Button Room at the back of the store: it was like Narnia. They had everything you could imagine, including my horn buttons. I bought some tassels for my antique keys as well. This place is a paradise, and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Very knowledgeable and friendly staff!

A wondrous hole in the wall I would not have found if I didnt enter trying to escape the heat. The passionate staff and sheer abundance of raw material makes this place a haven for the enlightened and creative, although trinkets like pins and buttons makes this place attractive to the casual enthusiasts too.

Amazing selection of ribbon and trimmings etc. I was after lace and found the perfect one!

The wonderland of ribbons and trim! I visit every time I’m in NY and it’s a dangerous place that makes me loose control. The staff are super helpful and friendly. Altogether s great place to get a huge variety of craft supplies.

Extensive inventory and reasonable prices

Great place for trim.

Outstanding selection and great professional staff!

Great place but the service is terrible. We asked one of the workers if she can help us, she looked at us and said okay but then she walked away. Later I asked for some prices and she said look at the box, inside the box and again walked away...then we just decided to leave the place.

Such a large selection and well organized so it’s easy to shop!

Great place so much variety staff was very attentive !

A great selections of buttons. Helpful staff.

Everything is organized, clean, neat, I found what I was looking for immediately..I didnt find the pricing bad at all... Staff is very helpful!

FUN sweet little honey hole and if you buy enough then request a discount and you might get one (I did). PLEASE support the small fabric and notion store before they are all gone. The store was stocked full but in order and easy to navigate. The staff was helpful and not all up in your neck as you shopped.

M&J Trimming has a huge selection of buttons which I needed for a coat, Successful.)

A really good place and business thats been there for a long time that has a variety of sewing and trimming needs I recommend it highly

Came here for buttons, and was not disappointed. They have an entire room of all kinds of buttons, as well as belt buckles. Was able to find what I needed. They also have lots of trimmings.

M&J Trimming is a wonderful store, full of inspiration and high-quality yarns. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, but it is quite expensive. I go there for inspiration and their less expensive yarn such as Cascade. Once in a while, I will treat myself to a really nice cashmere yarn though, and its definitely worth it.

Pricey and I got there towards closing time.

Definitely a cool place but over priced. You can find the same items for a hell of a lot cheaper online.

So many spectacular trimmings to choose from. I was excited to be able to go there, I prefer to see and feel the material in real life. The staff is friendly as well.

Perhaps a bit higher priced but at least I could find the exact tortoise shell buttons needed for my trench coat. Not a single Big Box store was able to provide 8 - 1buttons and 4 - 1/2 buttons all the same tortoise color. I couldnt even mix and match the buttons from store to store. Ridiculous !!! Turn around time for my online order was less than 5 business day and the buttons are beautiful. Could not be happier with my purchase and will not hesitate to order again.

Beautiful products. Helpful workers. Good prices

Love the Swarovski rhinestones :-)

Always love shopping there

WOW! Amazing selection of trimmings!

Years ago M&J Trimmings was a place of wonder it was like I was Alice and I came into wonderland today m&j is more like a small commercial store that has a few things in it nothing entirely completely unique in its nature or that you couldnt find in another store I think I would only shop there if I really really need it something right away but looking for unique items or that feeling of going into wonderland no longer exists but I still say it is a great place to shop

To the owner. You have a beautiful store with a great selection. However your people are clearly unhappy. I counted seven employees and only 3 customers. Not one was interested in helping any customers. At one point my boyfriend asked for help. The employee got frustrated and said she would be back. When she came back she proceeded to make fun of my purchase in Spanish with a couple of the other team members. Im sure you have worked hard to build up a business in the city. Maybe it is time to focus on employee training. I did notice you had an entire room dedicated to discounted merchandise that is a clear indication of your staffs inability to sell your products. Most of the textile industry has moved away with very little signs of returning to the US. I wish your store all the best on future improvements. I will be inclined to spend my money elsewhere.

Wide variety of buttons and ribbons, slightly less expensive than most shops in the Bryant park area, but not the best option for jewelry or closures

Amazing selection if you cant find it here it likely is very very rare

Every type of trim and ribbon imaginable

Still the place for excellent trimming when other shops are closing

A wonderful experience. Staff were super friendly even at closing time. A must visit if you’re looking for a fantastic selection of ribbons, patches, buttons and trims. I was amazed at their button selection and managed to find exactly what I was looking for. The military iron on patches are definitely worth checking out too! Thank you for creating an incredible shop.

I was very pleased. I got everything I needed.

Great place for most common trims and seeing material. They have a large selection of patchs as well and have Swarovski crystal by the box.Practical as it is a big store, you LL find more then one thing in there.

Went for thread & ended up with a cool 💀 iron on patch as well. its great theyre open on a Sunday til 6. courteous sales staff. also found a VERY good jewelry-craft findings store across the street so it was a fruitful trip.

Enjoyable

Rip a whole in your jacket? PATCH IT UP! Need to shut your friends mouth? CRAZY GLUE A ZIPPER ON THEIR FACE! Want to stick a feather in your hat? VISIT MJ TRIMMING! you can do it all here, well mostly DIY stuff and fashion stuff, its cool stuff if you like stuff.

Friendly staff. Great to meet the famous dog. Had to see this place for ourselves as Project Runway fans. It was worth it!

Ive been here several times over the years on trips to NYC and Im just... never that impressed. The shop feel huge but it also feels understocked, like they could use the space more efficiently. And the prices and selection arent great. There are tons of other trim shops in the garment district with better selection and better prices, its always a little baffling to me that this one always seems to pop up on must see lists.

Total Girls shop. Think they stock everything you could need

Best place for crafts project. Great selection, well located in downtown New York.Service is great. Price is fair! Worth a visit!

I bought several yards of beaded trim that I wanted to use for my wedding veil. I did my due diligence and asked the employee who sold me the trim if I could return it if it didn’t match my veil. He said yes. I never would have bought it if I knew I couldn’t return it. It ended up not matching my veil and I went back to the store to return it. Apparently the store policy does not allow returns of any cut materials including this trim. I told the manager that her employee told me I could return it and the repeated response was that it is store policy. This made me very angry because I asked specifically if I could return my purchase and was given incorrect information. This store refuses to take responsibility for its own employee’s actions. They wouldn’t even give me store credit to attempt to rectify the situation. This is not how you treat customers and I will not be returning to this store. I will find another store for my future wedding needs.

On one mu favorite places in NYC. For very little $ you can update your wardrobe and put your own personal spin on wardrobe basics.

Going to M & J is like a designer going to a candy store getting all the creative ideas poring out! Staffs are very friendly and helpful. Love that store!

I call and call and they wont answer the phone. I email and they wont get back to me for two days and still the person I need to speak with doesnt call me back. Left a message...3 X and still no call back after 24 hours. Must be nice to be so in demand. Sucks for me however because I want to place a very, very large order. So, there is a smaller place around the corner that will take my order and M & J, adios!

Excellent selection. Best by far anywhere.

I came here on a Saturday around 2pm.I came looking for plain elastic to make elastic belts. They have some good options.A great assortment of ribbons, novelty and varsity letter appliqués, elastics, buttons, piping, pom-poms, lace & beaded trims.Sometimes I feel like they have lots of novelty options. Like fancy and unique trims. I wish they had more basic, simple trims in varying sizes and qualities. For example, I wish they had more different types of black elastic. More widths, thicknesses, in more varying qualities.There’s also a Groupon deal sometimes available for $17 for $30 credit to spend. So if you come here often, take advantage!This store is very organized and has plenty of sales associates to help. Also, a great location in the middle of midtown near Bryant Park.

Clean. The people here know what I need and always help me in a timely fashion.

The best of NYC Garment District sewing notions stores - a must stop on search for perfect button or bow. Recently floor footprint cut in half - less open space, but looks like mostly same stock. Nice staff, very helpful.

How can you not love a place right in the middle of New York City the has shelves all the way up to the ceiling filled with an endless array of ribbons trims and buttons? M&J trimming is the real deal for professionals as well as hobbyist involved in the creative arts

Super convenient and well stocked but very very mass market and the sales people arent all that friendly or helpful. Their double faced silk satin ribbon is amazing and basically what keeps me coming back. Also good and consistent hours.

A friend and I were passing and decided to stop in... our heads were spinning from the variety, and the gorgeous selections. They had a bridal section, which I have to admit, was pretty cool! The staff is knowledgeable, polite, and attentive enough to let you have your space but still be available, which is a huge plus.

At first, I had some misgivings, because the trim I needed was in two pieces and there were issues with my order. However, I spoke to a wonderful woman named Claribel, and she sorted out the whole thing, gave me 25% off and upgraded my shipping so I will get my trim by the end of the week! Totally turned the experience around, so I will be a repeat customer for this lovely place of wonders. Thank you so much!

I got a groupon to use here and was pleased and intimidated at the same time (its so fancy!). Great customer service, the store is impeccably neat and clean. A little more expensive than the other stores in the area, but youre guaranteed to find what you need there. Highly recommend.

SHOP ANYWHERE ELSE. I bought one yard of trimming and asked for advice on which type of glue to buy in order to turn it into a necklace. They pointed me to a glue (E90 or something), and after applying it and nearly passing out, I let it sit outside for two-weeks. Even after the two weeks the glue reeked of toxicity. Definitely not meant to be used on anything near humans. I went back into the store to see if they could give me a new yard of trimming to replace the one made toxic by their recommendation and they refused, saying it was my fault I listened to their recommendation. I wasnt even asking for a refund - I just wanted to replace yard of $10 trimming. I pleaded and they continued to blame me for listening to them. Ive never experienced such rude service in my life. I was a fairly frequent customer there, too. Now I shop at any of the other trimming shops within 2 blocks.

I am furious with this place. I called before visiting to ask if they had two items, both of which the person on the phone went to check for and reported yes they had them. I wasted so much time going in to the store, b/c lo! they did not have what I was looking for. Made no effort to compensate or console. Im giving 3 stars because yes they have good stuff, but seriously, go down the street and go into any other shop. Its all the same stuff. F this place. F you get M&J. You get an F. For furious.

Great staff but not enough patches need more patches .

Great store. Professional, clean, quality products. Always find what I need when I go there. Convenient location.

This place is SO incredible! I was in the wedding section in the back looking for shoes and jewelry for a very fancy occasion. The women working there couldnt have been more helpful and were just the nicest! They have jumped through hoops to help me with all sorts of crazy details. Also, the Angela Nuran shoes they sell are incredible... very beautiful, and comfortable! This place is a find!

Tons of amazing buttons, patches and trimming. Staff was helpful and the store very clean

Good selection, service was slow, my expected In and out within 10 minutes was about 40 minutes.

They recently shrunk the store a bit, but its just as well stocked and full of great finds.

The perfect place when were going to shopping if you love the fashion

Great selection of items to choose from but a bit pricey.

This store is amazing....but the workers make it so Blahhhh. I like a fabric and or trim store to make me feel like they care, and no one offered to help me at all... 🤔

If you like buttons.....or thread....or other sewing stuff......like colors.....and patterns.....and stuff.....then this is the place to go for good times and even better memories!

Some of the best trim prices I found for the items I needed. Well organized within the space they have without leaving excess space available.

Really disappointed, I was in NYC for one day and they say they close at 7:30 but I got there 7:15 and doors were already closed. Don’t say you close at 7:30 when you close your doors earlier; if your doors are closed earlier then that’s the real time you close. Unfair to customers.

WOW, SO OVER PRICED!Cost over $10 for ONE BUTTON?If you want to buy rhinstone buttons, go shop on eBay!So much cheaper than this place!

Great selection, staff isnt welcoming and its slightly overpriced. It is definitely convenient though.

Working on a couple of projects and was able to find almost everything I need. They have many colors of zippers and thread as well as tons of buttons and trimming. Unfortunately (for me) now they seem to be focusing more on patches - I really just needed items for my sewing project. But if you are a patch lover check it out!

Great selection. Staff arent fully informed. I was looking for a specific type of ribbon and some staff didnt know where you direct me. I found it myself and then had to wait over 30 minutes to get rung up. Another lady quit because she had to get back to work.

Amazing ...enormous selection all very organized with lots of people to help you.

Excellent store. They have a huge selection and the customer service is excellent.

My fav trimmings shop in NY - beautiful and unusual buttons, ribbons, patches, thread, etc. Beautiful adornments.

Everything you need...just bring A lot of money! They are not reasonable. Nice stuff knowledgeable staff.

They have a general stock of almost all trims, and some special ones....great customer service

Great place for trimmings! So many to choose from ..

Great place for intricate things or even simple things with great quality.

After getting over the shock of so many other fashion design stores totally gone, I found this place M &J Trimming. They have a wide and varied selection, to cater to many fashion, & design craftsmen.

The staff was helpful and nice but this store is 50% + more expensive than other places for Swarovski I had to make an emergency purchase and had to get it even though I knew it was extremely overpriced for example just down the block my Usual bead store that was closed due to it being Sunday I get 144 size ss7 for $5.80 here I got 96 for $10.98 i would of gotten realice as many stones for the price and gotten the pots to store them and would still have money left over

I would recommend it to everyone. For women.

Lots of unique iron-on to make unique jackets and Jeans.

The people who work there are very sweet.
