Journaling Starter Supplies

Buying supplies for Bible journaling can become overwhelming and expensive. The best thing
about it is that you get to choose what you want and what you don’t! There are no rules. You
make up your own rules - yay!

Here are a few supplies that I recommend when you’re just getting started. Use a coupon at
your craft store if you can! If you’re shopping online and make a purchase via our links, our
ministry will receive a small commission. Thank you for supporting our mission to help others
grow in the Word creatively.

your Bible - Dina Wakley is my favorite http://amzn.to/2pajjqY, but Art Basics is a close
second http://amzn.to/2pKgVck

 8. Acrylic paint - I don’t have a brand to recommend yet. I use Artist loft in 48 pack of small
tubes. A little goes a long way.
