Best Catalogs for art supplies -

[Michelle My Bell]

I am going to be having an art class in my home where we are going to explore a lot of different mediums. One I would like to tackle is printmaking. I will need a brayer for this for example. I am looking for a catalog that specializes in art supplies with a wide variety. I would also like it to be as inexpensive as possible (not excluding good quality). Thanks for any help!!!

check out Nasco arts and crafts as well. I used to be an art teacher and I used to order from Nasco and Dick Blick. Good luck and have fun!

I concuur! :D

but also.. if you have a Joann’s or a Michaels... don’t forget they have sales all the time and they have coupons.... Joann’s also offers 15% off for teachers.... you just need to "prove" you home school and you can get a teachers card.... and a 1 time 20% off your entire purchase when you sign up.... For art supplies that’s my quick fix... quality and variety is good as well...

I buy a lot of art supplies, most of them from Rainbow Resource. They have a large selection, including high quality brands like Prismacolor, that I haven't found anywhere for less. The catalog, if you don't have one, is thick like a large city phone book (they carry everything, not just art supplies), with great descriptions but no pics. There are pics online if you want to see something. I don't know if they have stuff for print making, but it might be worth checking.

I love shopping for art supplies--have fun!

There may be a charge for it, but it is well worth it IMO.

I see that Sax Arts and Crafts has free lesson plans on their site too.

Enjoy!
