The easiest place to get your supplies is through our class bulk order, but if you only need a few items you may be able to find things cheaper on  www.amazon.com.  Remember that THESE ARE JUST GUIDELINES.  If, for example, you already have Crayola crayons, and I have listed Prang, do not feel obligated to buy new materials. As always, feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions!
