[Nfb-krafters-korner] String Art?

[Ramona Walhof]

I think I got mine from the NFB Independence Market at nfb.org.  If they
have run out, I would try Independend Living Aids, but that is just a guess.
The screen is stretched over a flat piece of wood, then a frame around the
edges is above it.  It is finished wood, so somebody has made it for mass
distribution.  An 8.5-inch by 11inch piece of paper fits it well.

Where can you get the screen boards? i saw one about 15 years ago, but do
not remember where.
Thanks,
