I've located some sources online that have bronze tissue paper and some bronze
wrapping paper on rolls, but the cost is extremely high (in my opinion)--- bronze
tissue paper was $23 a package and the rolls of foil --2.6'-- were $49 (must have
flakes of gold in them at that price....<grin>).
Anyway, my thought was why not go to a craft store (Michael's, Hobby Lobby, etc.)
and purchase some bronze spray paint---if you can't find the paper in either of
these stores, that is. You can lightly coat a posterboard with the bronze spray
paint--especially if the posterboard is close to the same color--and use it for
your bulletin board.... Or use regular alumunium foil...roll it out...then spray
lightly the bronze spray paint over it. This will cover a larger surface than the
poster board.
Depending on the size of the bulletin board and space needed for the bronze foil /
wrapping paper, you might be able to use the "left over" bronze tin foil that is
used for the Hershey carmel kisses---they are bronze in color.
{I'm SO glad summer is almost over....I think I've had an overdose of HGTV and the
ideas in "extreme make-over" series !!}

We are doing a TV Turnoff Year Long Challenge again this year, and I
am having a hard time locating bronze colored foil., or posterboard
for my bulletin board display -- silver and gold foil or metallic
paper are easier to find, but bronze is proving very difficult.
Anyone have any sources , either online or perhaps a national chain
store, that they have seen this item? Rolls would be great (like
wrapping paper rolls) but I'm willing to take several small sheets
and tile them if necessary. I've already checked our local party
store (Party City) without any luck.
Thanks!
