Here is an updated list of recycled items I'd love in the art room. Your contribution opens up the yearly allotted art funds to be used on other art supplies and allow your children to explore more sophisticated and higher quality art mediums.

* Buttons* Magazines
* Cigar boxes......we can;t have enough of these.

* Cardboard (8x11 or larger) for everything
* Cutting board (for garden related art signs)
* Old house paint (any color) to paint old discolored wooden shelves
* Sheets (any color as long as it's solid and not prints. I use this for banners)
