In Creative arts we get through a large (HUGE) amount of small consumables. Glue, buttons, etc. So in an effort to make it easier to purchase consumables, we have adopted a new scheme. Pink slips!
These pink slips are a little different to vehicle pink slips, i’ll explain.
Whenever you need to use consumables, lets say a makers best friend, super glue, you should be able to find a baggie in the adhesives box with a tube of superglue and a pink slip. (side note: we have both gel and regular, super glue singles)
-
On this pink slip will be a donation amount, and a paperclip
-
Attach dollar bill(s) for that amount to the pink slip and paperclip
-
Drop pink slip and attached bills it in the tribute box.
-
Enjoy your consumable, give it the life it deserves.
Its simple, clean, no need to enter it on Square, it will all get counted at the end of the month and Creative Arts will use your donation to procure more fantastic consumables.
Currently, we only have a few items (superglue, super cute E6000 tubes, pallettes and large/small/magnetic buttons) but this list will increase with intent on covering all small consumables in Creative Arts.
Of course the honor system still applies. We can only hope to see all the pink slips return to us, bearing gifts of American currency.
You will still find some of the above items for use as before (ie: not in bag with pink slip). The square will happily deal with your donation for all of these instances.
