Books and Supplies Needed:
The guide comes with a beautifully curated book list, and a simple craft supply list. I was very mindful about keeping supply lists to a minimum. Most supplies needed are general school or craft supplies such as glue, pencils, and watercolors. We also love utilizing items such as cardboard for crafting. Anything else needed can usually be found around your home or at the dollar store.
