I always print my printables directly onto 160 gsm cardstock using my Epson Ecotank Printer rather than regular paper, this way they are a little more durable and the pens do not bleed through to the other side. However, if you do not have a home printer then just pop to a library and use theirs.
- 160 gsm card stock (for durability and better color saturation)
- Printer (I use my Epson Ecotank Printer for vibrant colors)
- Markers, crayons, or colored pencils for coloring
- Scissors for cutting out each piece
- Glue for assembling the village (and attaching bases if needed)
- Optional: Glitter, small LED lights, or cotton wool for added holiday magic!
