Just wondering how many of you love to order supplies or loathe this part of the job? I love it...love seeing what is new, anticipating clean watercolors, and feeling special when I get all those boxes to open!! What I hate is doing inventory before I place my orders.
So to make that part of the job more enjoyable I give in to one of my favorite things, Starbucks. I know some of you may go to that other place but for me Starbucks is it. I love the atmosphere, bring in my laptop, sip my yummy latte and get my work done. The other thing I love about Starbucks is that they have soy milk!!
So, back to supplies. I think it is time for a list of a few of my favorite things-supply style.
ONE
Love these liquid watercolors from Sax.
TWO
Dick Blick acrylics...have tried other brands but these give great coverage and are easy to mix.
THREE
Nothing beats Sharpie for graphic work. Great saturated colors and the kids think they are so grown up using a permanent marker.
FOUR
It took me a while before I realized how the quality differs in construction paper.
Tru-Ray is stronger and has deeper color than any other brand I have tried.
FIVE
Have tried to save money by buying other erasers but have found they are too hard or too soft. Pink Pearl is just right!
