You will shop on the Michaels site to assemble an order, but you will not place your order with them. Rather, you will assemble the order and then email it to ClassWish for us to place. Please follow these easy directions.
You do not need to go through this process until you have donated funds to use.
You do not need to go through this process until you have donated funds to use.
1. Check Your ClassWish Wish List Account Balance and Get Your ClassWish ID#
- Your ID# appears within the URL of your Wish List page.
- If you want more supplies than your balance allows, you can make a tax-deductible contribution to your own wish list before or right after you shop.
2. Request the Items You Need
- When you have donation funds to use (or are about to add your own funds), go to http://www.michaels.com/ (To see other vendors for other categories, please go to the home page of this ClassWish vendors site).
- Shop like you normally would. But do not take advantage of "buy one - get one" and deals similar to that. Also, do not use any coupons.
- Then proceed to Checkout.
- Shop as a guest. Do not log in, even if you have an account, and do not create an account until you have finished this process.
- Provide the school address as your shipping address.
- Do not enter your credit card info. You are not ordering from this site. You are only using the site and cart to assemble a request that you will email ClassWish.
- Download this Request Form, fill it in, and paste the entire cart contents into that Word document. We have provided an image below to show the way the cart contents appears on the right side of the page. Be sure to include the items and the summary of charges. And do not copy it until after you have provided the school's address, so the site will calculate the shipping charges if any. Michaels offer free shipping for orders over $50.
- Then send us the Request Form at the email address provided in the form.
- Please use this form for your request for items from only a single vendor. If you want to submit requests for items from multiple vendors, please submit separate forms for each.
