The idea of throwing something away that you can use to make great art and stretch your budget may make you cringe! Don\u2019t worry\u2014there are several other ways to pass on art supplies without throwing them in the dumpster.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are five ways to be generous with your surplus:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol class=\"special-list\">\n<li>Donate to another art teacher in your building or district.<\/li>\n<li>Create a bin of \u201cfree\u201d art supplies for students to take home.<\/li>\n<li>Gift to another colleague in your building.<\/li>\n<li>Drop off at your local arts council or community studio space.<\/li>\n<li>Post in your local buy-nothing group.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-466831\" src=\"https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03950-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"trash bags of artwork and paper\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03950-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03950-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03950-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03950.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/p>\n<h3>1. Will you use it this school year?<\/h3>\n<p>We often collect items because \u201cone day we\u2019ll use them.\u201d Before you know it, you have an <a href=\"https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/2023\/10\/oct-art-closet-of-curiosities-rare-mysteries-and-5-ways-to-tame-the-terror\/\">art closet of curiosities<\/a> overflowing with weird things. Will you use the item this school year and does it fit in with the media, techniques, and concepts in your curriculum and scope and sequence? If not, it\u2019s time to toss it or rehome it.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you have a pile of large butcher paper that students painted on. You don\u2019t want to toss it because it\u2019s a lot of paper. If you know you have a paper mache unit next quarter, keep it to recover the tables. If you need a few extra messy mats, cut them up into individual sizes and laminate them.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if you find garbage bags of plastic drink bottles, and you know you won\u2019t have time to clean them and do an upcycled sculpture project with them anytime soon, drop them in the recycle bin! If, one day, you decide to do an upcycled sculpture project, do another schoolwide collection and you\u2019ll have a fresh stash of bottles in no time.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"What\u2019s the Weirdest Thing You\u2019ve Found in Your Art Room?\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7M70J1ae2Nk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>2. Is it dirty?<\/h3>\n<p>If you can clean the item fairly quickly and easily, go for it! Say you found a bin of watercolor palettes where each cake is smeared with black paint. Grab a sponge and wipe them off; in a few minutes, they\u2019ll look brand new! If the item has dirt, mold, bugs, or mouse feces\u2014throw it away. The item is no longer sanitary and safe and is not worth salvaging.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-466833\" src=\"https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03948-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"piles of paper with dirt\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03948-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03948-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03948-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC03948.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/p>\n<h3>3. Is it district or school property?<\/h3>\n<p>Maybe you uncovered some archaic equipment in your closet, like an overhead projector or slide carousel. You have a stack of broken stools or textbooks from the 1970s. These may be district or school property. Check with your department chair, art supervisor, or school administrator to discover the proper channels and procedures for removal.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Is it <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/m6adztVMh_w?si=sw8Yw_83WWBc5n6g\">hazardous<\/a>?<\/h3>\n<p>Some art supplies or tools are no longer safe or recommended in schools. For example, you may unearth a set of oil paints and linseed oil or you may dig out a box of old-school super sharp metal compasses. Talk to your maintenance staff to dispose of these items properly or donate them to your local arts council for professional artists to use.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Can you digitize it?<\/h3>\n<p>Do you have drawers of hand-drawn anchor charts, old student artworks, or art history reproduction posters? What about filing cabinets chock-full of handwritten \u201cdittos\u201d or lesson plans generated on a typewriter? Determine if the content is still relevant. If you can use the artworks as exemplars for your projects, photograph them, and organize them digitally. Share those folders with fellow art teachers for them to use too! Sometimes, you find activity handouts that are gold\u2014they just need to be digitally updated as well.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-466832\" src=\"https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01219-1024x722.jpg\" alt=\"piles of artwork and plastic shelves\" width=\"1024\" height=\"722\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01219-1024x722.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01219-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01219-768x541.jpg 768w, https:\/\/theartofeducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01219.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/p>\n<h3>6. When was the last time you used it?<\/h3>\n<p>Maybe, the items you\u2019re uncovering are things you\u2019ve collected. Think back to the last time you touched it and used it. Was it recently? How often do you use it? Let\u2019s say you have a giant box of pinecones for students to draw each fall. Instead, take your students outside for 10 minutes to collect their own still life items from nature. When you\u2019re done with the unit, toss the items back out into the woods. Reuse your valuable closet space to store completed relief sculptures for your end-of-year art show.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Is it still functional?<\/h3>\n<p>Broken items tend to creep their way back into our storage spaces because \u201cone day we\u2019ll fix them.\u201d Let\u2019s be real\u2014if you were going to fix them, you would have fixed them! Does the item still serve its intended purpose? Does the tablet turn on? Do you still have the power plug to the printer? Do you have all of the pieces for the loom? If you don\u2019t have the time or funds to fix the item before the end of the quarter, give yourself permission to move on.<\/p>\n<p>However, you can save some items with minimal effort and money! Clay is expensive and it\u2019s usually worth it to <a href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/shorts\/bCZdZ0simOs?feature=share\">rehydrate a block of dried clay<\/a>. You can also save really nice paintbrushes by soaking them in a solution to remove dried acrylic paint.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Clay 101 for Art Teachers\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bCZdZ0simOs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>8. Do you have duplicates?<\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes we get it into our minds that we need to have a whole class set of each item or supply. You can end up with a huge hoard of tools that you don\u2019t regularly use! For instance, you may have 30-40 brayers taking up two bins in your closet. However, you may only use 10 because you usually do printmaking in small groups or stations. Think about how you teach and the flow of your studio and consider gifting spares to another art teacher. You can always borrow them back if needed!<\/p>\n<p>Decluttering your art room isn\u2019t just about tossing old art supplies\u2014it\u2019s about making an inspiring space that fuels creativity and efficiency. By applying these eight guiding questions, you\u2019re reclaiming control over your classroom. Every decision, from determining whether an item fits into your current curriculum, to deciding if it\u2019s worth repurposing or donating, brings you one step closer to a space that truly works for you and brings you freedom.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What guiding questions would you add to this list?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Are you an art teacher who tosses or keeps?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>To chat about decluttering with other art teachers, join us in <a href=\"https:\/\/community.theartofeducation.edu\/spaces\/14291083\/feed\">The Art of Ed Community<\/a>!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"magazine-disclaimer\">\n<p>Magazine articles and podcasts are opinions of professional education contributors and do not necessarily represent the position of the Art of Education University (AOEU) or its academic offerings.
