Teacher, crafters, and decorators are going bananas over this thick, high quality paper, designed to last for an entire school year! If you like to change out your bulletin board paper, Better Than Paper is my go-to, tried and true purchase that comes with enough paper to do replace the look 2-3 times! Pull in natural textures using the Shiplap and Wood Bulletin Board Paper. A love a simple beautiful background because it allows the pinks, oranges, greens, and blues of this Retro Bundle to take center stage.

Do you have a designated “cool down” space or “affirmation station” for students? Adding this flower power pillow and lava lamp will be cute and useful at the same time! The 20″ x 20″ flower pillow can be great for comfort or a huggable texture for your students! The fabric is soft but resilient!
