Supplies for the Year-long Class

Please do not buy all of these supplies before the class starts. Some supplies are needed in class in January, whereas Reggie will provide other supplies for you to try in class. If you like those supplies, then you may want to purchase them. This list contains all supplies we will use during class all year. I have made a separate paper list and list of supplies for January.

If you would like to print a list, highlight what you would like to copy, press Ctrl + C (copy), then go to your word processing software (i. e., Word), press Ctrl + V (insert). Highlight the text and change the color to black. When I inserted the list into a Word document, the text was light grey and difficult to read. If you have problems doing this, email dj18a@yahoo.com.

The members of Reggie's Class get a 10% discount during the year for orders from John Neal, Bookseller. Just tell us you are in Reggie's class if you phone or email. If you order on-line, put "10% discount, Reggie's Class" in the "Special Shipping Instructions." This 10% applies to your entire order, not just to supplies for Reggie's class. The 10% discount won't be reflected in your shopping cart. We will make the adjustment after your order is downloaded and processed.
