Art supplies...I use dickblick.com. You could send little "treats". They might have a small storage cabinet she could call her own...

    Thank you jfkoc! I'll look it up. Ive taken in a bunch of things for general use donations-loads of canvases and papers and two full brush sets- but they don't want her acrylics and oils, say they're too hard for most of their residents to use. So im still trying to figure out what she'd like and what she'd actually use.
