They don't mention this anywhere in the product description, but this isn't regular tissue paper. It is "bleeding art tissue paper". That means the tissue paper bleeds colors all over everything.

5.0 out of 5 stars From Pinata to "Undersea scene" to fake-window "Stained Glass" this tissue bleeds art, June 3, 2009

I have yet to find a more enjoyable donation to a classroom. This year our first grade used this very tissue to make hands (hundreds) to glue on a huge butterfly shape to form the giant creature with it, used it to cover pinatas, used it in squares on tiny butterflies, made stained glass (kind of) window designs, made under the sea bleeding watery designs, collages, portraits. So much.

It's thin, it's capable of becoming 3-D floral, just a great addition to the program. We've used 10 packages. In a year. A terrific thing to pick up and send in to a school, or toss into a box with crayolas and some other supplies for that child you know, love and want to enrich. Try The Pinata Maker for a way to take this into a fun art project.

And my class loved to use this in conjunction with these:

This is nice, good quality ART, BLEEDING tissue paper. ("Bleeding" means that the color transfers easily. If the paper gets wet from water (or sweat), it gets all over/stains your hands.) If that's what you want/need it for, then it is perfect. There are LOTS of shades of very nice BRIGHT and PALE colors. If you are looking for nice gift bag/wrapping paper, this is NOT it. There is a nice variety of various shades of colors, and while they look pretty, they also can/do stain.
