 PLUS: One other type of supply item from your house. This is a supply item not a piece of miniature furniture or an accessory.  the LED lighting strip 

You can use unlimited quantities of: colouring items (e.g., paint, crayons, markers, etc.) and glue. If you want, you can use your computer to turn a paper/card stock item into a printie. In addition, you may use one container (e.g., roombox) for your final scene.  The container is a box that I got at a club meeting a couple years ago - a freebie from Sunni.
