You can find it at Home Depot, Lowes or any major hardware store. It costs about $25 for a Very Big roll (3 feet by 324 sq. ft - 15 pounds). There are so many possibilities in using it as a canvas since it's waterproof.

I would highly recommend trying it. You can do it on a smaller scale with colored pencils or oil pastels as well. Thanks so much Mom! See, I wasn't so crazy after all. ;)Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01659049026365545639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764202135165479575.post-24572547318007928852015-03-20T15:57:20.533-07:002015-03-20T15:57:20.533-07:00I have no idea what roofing felt is, but my intere...I have no idea what roofing felt is, but my interest is certainly piqued!!

I remember Phyl's post about lugging the roll of roofing felt home and needing help lifting it and I must admit I was daunted. That being said, after seeing your kids' work, I might relent and try this out. Your colors are fabulous!!Christie - Fine Lineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10418114130566362780noreply@blogger.com
