Basic Supplies List
A printable copy of this list is available here.This is not an exhaustive art journaling supply list. You will find many of these items in your own home, or may be able to ask family and friends to save up items you can use. This list is merely a guide to get your creative juices flowing, and help you begin to think outside of the box.
Art journaling and mixed media art are working their way into the "mainstream", and with this often comes pressure to spend money on products to get a certain look you want. Personally I advise you to use what you have, and when making purchases use coupons, sales, and less expensive brands.
While you are in the process of learning your craft/hobby/possible business venture, it is better to spend your time practicing instead of shopping. *gasp!*
In the beginning, experiment with different techniques. Find what you love. Later on, splurge and try out some of the more expensive art supplies on the market. Sometimes it is better to spend a bit more, but a lot of times you can buy cheaper versions with excellent results!
Before you go shopping, and get excited wanting to purchase the newest item in the art journaling craze, take a deep breath and see what you already have on hand. You may be surprised at all of the art supplies you already own!
Now, go get started, and go make some oh so beautiful messes!
