Supplies

Thus far, I would say the biggest challenge to starting this whole thing is obtaining the supplies. Everyone has a different opinion on what you need and trying to sort through that is a bit daunting. Once you figure out what you need, you must also find the places to get said supplies. Living in the big city that I do, I was hoping for a one-stop shop for the basics (grout, tile nippers, etc.), but it was not to be. Thus far I have been to three Ace Hardware stores (each store tends to carry different items based on demographics), Michael's, Goodwill and Target. I've finally got everything I think I need, except for those handy wooden paint stirrers for the grout. Hopefully Home Depot will be awesome and hand over a load for free.

Since there isn't a "perfect" list of everything you'll need and want, its going to be a game of finding what works best. Should be fun!
