Essential Back to School Supplies

A note from Steph – Welcome Tati Jorge to the Hearts and Laserbeams team! Tati is helping us out in the office with all kinds of art and design projects, and will be writing for the blog every now and then as well.

It’s back-to-school season! Yes, the most wonderful time of the year! (Well, besides Christmas, of course.) This unofficial season is intended to get you and your youngster back in gear for this upcoming school year.

The best part of the school year is the beginning. Everything is new and exciting, and for a teen like myself, the possibilities seem endless. It is important to be ready and have the proper materials for you and/or your child to explore those possibilities and conquer any obstacle in the classroom.

But, before you explore or conquer anything, you need to have the right supplies. I gather some things you are going to need, from classic to trendy, and they are listed in this post. They are really the only essential back-to-school supplies you will ever need!
