paper rolls

this is in regards to the children's museum

i asked my roommate with 2 teacher parents if there was a teacher supply store around here and she suggested "debbie & co" on plainfield and 96. their website is awful so maybe we could call or go there to see if they sell rolls of colored paper to make pipes out of...?

i also found these two links:
paper,
PAPER!

  1. Trimaco 12 In. x 180 Ft. Brown All Purpose Masking Paper (V's suggestion) = about $.02 per sq ft.


    the first link listed above:

    Dual Surface 2'x200' rolls 40 lb. variety of colors
    about $.05 per sq ft.

    Dual Surface 3'x 1000' rolls 40lb. variety of colors
    about $.02 per sq. ft --- we would only need 1 roll to cover nearly all of the window space, even if we weave.

    Fadeless paper rolls 2' x 50' variety of colors
    about $.14 per sq. ft --- I saw fadeless and wondered if this is what we'd want...


    the second link above:

    "Red Colored Butcher Paper" 3'x 1000'
    about $.014 per sq ft.

    Brown Craft Paper 24"x 900'
    about $.011 per sq. ft.

  3. marvelous calculation breakdown, shannon!

    maybe we could get the fadeless paper for the pipes even though it costs a bit more because we dont need nearly as much of it. or maybe not - the cheaper stuff may suffice.

    i wonder how much shipping would be and how long it takes to deliver.
