I really want to expand my skills and teach myself some more sugar flowers like orchids and lilies, etc. I am wondering where is the best place to find good tutorials on how to make a variety of flowers. Where did you learn how to do your flowers? Websites, videos, books . . .???? I would love to know the best way to learn without having to go to a class/course. I have 3 kids under five so time is limited to do courses.

Advice, tips, links is much appreciated!!! icon_biggrin.gif

I use online tutorials and books to help me. But, what I have found to be the most helpful is getting really detailed pictures of whatever flower I am wanting to tackle and scrutinizing them. If possible, I also get one of the flowers and put it in water and set it by where I am working so I can compare the work in progress with the real thing.
