Name of brand is Frank’s Crafts.

It was sold at a chain of stores in the midwest, based in Michigan. They went bankrupt in the early 2000s.

They originated as a gardening/nursery supply store. After the 1980s, the stores were called “Frank’s Nursery & Crafts,” but there were a few other stores including some that were called Frank’s Supercrafts.
