I have purchased many of my paper pieces from them (PaperPieces.com) i also at times make my own (the magazine provides the templates you need to make your own pieces for this project) but i've been doing EPP for a long time-and already had many i needed- i also have 3 or 4 shapes/sizes of the mylar pieces from Brandy's which i love too- they are thicker than the paper ones but hold up for years - they are alot more expensive though. when i first started EPP i had a friend who worked at some factory where he was able to make shapes out of chip board (a bit thicker than the cardboards you get with new shirts) he made me 1000 (1 1/2" hexagons) for next to nothing ($5)
so, i've shared those & used those for many projects- they are 10 years old & holding up great too.
