Are there any retail stores in the UK that carry kraft paper? I'm trying to help some dude in the UK figure out where to buy it. Can't believe they don't have Target. :hanging:

I use mine for way more than just shipping posters. Last year I had a huge project due, I was broke and needed paper, ended up making a whole book of hand drawn roman letterforms on kraft. Need to wrap something up to keep it safe? Fill space in a box? Doodling paper? Stencil paper?
wouldn't you want to get kraftpaper wider than 24" for the large prints? ... like maybe 28 or 30"?

Just google pure kraft paper UK, plenty of online stores with next day delivery. Can buy any weight, finish, length. Rolled or sheets.

Think I used this place before...

Scotch® 3M 75 sq feet roll was 4.59$ USD before taxes at Target in Nevada.

Either paper (prices) has increased astronomically in the past years, or Target is to Art Care customers what the liquor store is to common drunks: a place to overpay for what you need due to convenience.
