[teacherartexchange] help with supplies

---------

I was hoping that I could get some help choosing supplies, instead of
wasting money trying different brands. Our private elementary school has a
very low budget.
Brushes--I need flat brushes for tempera or acrylic. I can't tell from the
catalog if they are stiff or the floppy ones better suited for watercolor.
I was thinking about getting "School Smart" black or white bristles, but
again, can't tell enough about the bristles.
Chalk Pastels--I would like rich colors. I have ordered some that seem to
have good color, only to have them go on very light colored.
Watercolor paper--Is there a cheaper alternative without getting the soak
through and muting of colors?
Supply source--I've found Classroom Direct and Sax to be cheaper. Any
comments or suggestions?
Any suggestions concerning other supplies would be helpful.
Thank you,
Amy
