I'm working on an order list, but my guide is loaned out at the moment.

Thanks.

140 lb cold pressed paper---we used the 9x12.

You didn't ask this, but I thought I'd throw out a suggestion for storage. We used a 12x12 scrapbook from the craft store. we left the white inserts in and just centered the painting in the pocket. It worked great and made a really wonderful way to store and view the finished pieces.

Also, we found that the paper would curl up when it was wet and would sometimes pool the paint towards the center, so we used the blue painter's tape and taped the edges down to the hard surface all the way around. When the painting was dry, we removed the painter's tape. That left a really nice white frame around the painting.

Just a few little things we figured out along the way. Nothing earth-shattering or particularly genius!

I did part of CTC with an older child. Some of my children will be using CTC this year. I am thinking about using 8 1/2 X 11 paper this time around, just because I can store it with the rest of the year's work.
