Instead of brushes, Sal asks that you bring several household items to paint with, such as q-tips, rags, sponges, string, nails, screws and slotted spoons. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination! You'll receive a 3.5" x 3.5" piece of wood to paint on -- what you do with it is up to you! $10 program fee
