Our teacher testers were excited to create classroom back grounds and eye catching interactive items that can be used for the entire school year because of the COLORS and the paper is FADELESS. Here in Florida, everything changes color in a short period of time. Not the Pacon Corporation Fadeless Paper!
Changing up the colors of the Fadeless Designs to create a background for the interactive board where students find success learning time, place value and other activities throughout the year. Moving around the room students are met with the Fadeless Designs Lime where the ever present punctuation reminders will remain for the school year with a bit of tweaking to draw student attention back to the skills necessary in every writing project.
Beginning the school year on a positive note, Teacher 3 read “The Giving Tree” to the class. Students were then given apples made from Fadeless Desigh Chic Chevron Lime paper to label with their POSITIVE contribution to the daily classroom Giving Tree incorporated into every classroom subject for the first week of school. During Open House, parents were excited to pick ALL of the apples from the giving tree to pick up and donate needed classroom supplies!
This group of second graders can’t wait to practice their spelling words at the Lime Chevron bulletin board. Spelling is funner with the pretty board!
I don’t think there is a speck of the Pacon Fadeless Chic Chevron and Classic Black & White paper left in the school. Our teacher testers were thrilled with the beauty the Pacon Fadeless Paper has added to their classrooms. Pacon could have sent cases and I think it would have all been used throughout the school.

Valerie McElroy says
I would use the Pacon Fadeless Chic Design Paper to cover my ugly file cabinets. They could use some pretty bright colors to match the rest of my classroom.
Betsy Barr says
Love this product! I could use this paper in interactive notebooks, cut out letters and numbers, cover designs for our composition notebooks…….just to name a few!
Lori Mahan says
I would use it for the cut outs too, but I think that it would make a great addition to our lapbooks for reading and math.
Aodenwelder says
As an art teacher I would cut the paper into 10 x 13 pieces to use as fancy frames to showcase my best student artwork!
Stacie Ryan says
I would use them to create individualized iPad covers for the kids in addition to covering an ugly filing cabinet.
Becky Rogers says
I would use the paper for notebook covers, for triboard displays on student-created projects, and for student work displays in our hallway and media center.
Joanne Matuch says
I would use it to create projects with the children to help decorate our boring white walls.
Amy Wood says
I would use it to cover a VERY unattractive bookcase.
Rhonda P says
I would use it to decorate our Math journals.
Valerie McElroy says
I would also use the Pacon paper to cover a storage cabinet to liven it up.
Victoria DeOrnellis says
I teach gifted students in a pull-out program. I would use it to create centers for the different grade levels (I teach 2nd-8th grade).
eileen marie says
This would be perfect for the origami cranes we make for Open House! I also love the ideas people have mentioned about covering unattractive furniture. I have the most grody old rusty file cabinet that could use a facelift.
Joanne Matuch says
We could use this in so many ways! Love the designs.
Beth says
I would use it to make cards for the nursing home patients we have adopted
Anne Ramos says
I would use the paper to add more color to our classroom 🙂
Gloria says
I would use it for our science fair displays

I would use these to cover some shelves in my classroom. The paper would look great in my clear sleeve notebooks for my children, too.
Penny says
Great idea Vickie!
Kelly Brown says
Ooh, I would love to use it as covers for class books the students make. The colors look great and will definitely add some color to the covers!
