Color my for Spring

This paper comes in a great selection of colors. I am a teacher and I find it very useful in the classroom. I use it for craft projects in my writing and art areas for seasonal printing for framing children's art work and being able to accent student work. It is a little thicker than most copy paper and the children like to use it for practicing their cutting skills. I can also use it in a paper shredder to get filler for different projects or for a fun medium in the sand table. Color is the key!

These pastel papers are great for all sorts of uses from printing to drawing to making cards etc. it gives a little extra to your work rather than using plain white paper all the time.
I usually order this product on line from a different office supply company. But I needed this paper for a project and did not have time to wait for it to be shipped to me. I went to my local Staples store and found the Staples brand paper in the color I needed. I was able to buy it that day without waiting and get back to work and finish my project. I had never bought the "Staples" brand of paper before and I was worried it might not run through my printer efficiently. But it runs just as good as the 'name-brand' paper that I have previously purchased. I will most likely purchase the 'Staples' brand again on my future purchases.
I read a lot of reports with a lot of numbers. This can tire my eyes. The little bit of color takes a lot of glare away. I find that my eyes are not as tired using this Ivory paper.
