We are always looking for plastic yogurt cups, styrofoam, cardboard, and other miscellaneous recyclables in the art room. Any unwanted art supplies such as paper, paints, or crayons will also be greatly appreciated! Trust me, I will find a creative use for anything you bring in :] Some good examples are:
- Toilet paper rolls and other thin cardboard
- Styrofoam from plates or egg cartons
- Artsy children's books or "How to Draw..." books
- Various unwanted crafts supplies, such as fabric or yarn
- Plastic water bottles & bottle caps
- Yogurt cups
- Old calendars
- Newspapers and magazines
- Plastic bins or containers, such as coffee canisters
I have also created an Art Room Aid supply wish list, which can be viewed here. Thanks for all of your help!
