I'll be finishing Course III this month and have considered taking the courses again. I feel like I learned so much in so little time that I would like to go back and go over the content again. Since the Michaels near me always has a deal on the course fees and I now have all the materials I think it would be great. My DH thinks I'm nuts..... Has anyone else done this or thought about doing it?

I know someone that did it and he said that he learned new stuff everytime; it's just hard to remember everything.

I know lots of people who took Course 2 again so that they could master the flowers.

I definitely plan on it!!

I have two Michael's near me... and I plan on going to the other one to retake them... learn from someone else (different point of view, tips and tricks, etc) and get a refresher on everything. Like you said, you touch on it all so briefly....I would like to go over it all again. and also as you said... I have everything now... so with their specials it will cost hardly nothing at all.

Plus I am soon to have baby number 3.. so getting out of the house alone for a while doing something I love is the biggest plus of all!! icon_lol.gif

ive had several students take it again, and every time they say, you didn;t teach that the first time around, and i say yes i did, you just coudln't take it all in in that class. They seem to get so much more out of it, they are better organized and less stressed. it's not expensive either since they already have all the supplies, and its a good way to practice if you dont have any cakes to make.

my sister and i took the courses together. She wants to retake course 2, well we haven't done 3 yet. It does go by too fast, and not enough time to learn it all well. For those interested check Micheals near you. the one close to the house has buy one get a friend free to take the classes. it's a good deal.

I have taken a different decorating course, not Wilton and I've learned something new each time.

A friend and I took course II twice. It was good to work on the flower techniques without worrying about learning everything. My instructor said I could work on whatever I wanted and she would help me when I needed it. It was great!

Thanks, everyone. It's good to know that it has worked out well for other people.
