    3. Vee, I have a case of the same sort of paper except mine is the standard 8.5x11 size and has the perfs to tear off the holes. I haven't found a suitable home for mine either.

    3. Might I suggest, donating the paper to a preschool or kindergarten class. They are always needing paper to draw, scribble or paint on. Maybe you know a teacher that could direct you to one of these grades to donate. This was done in my girls classes.
