I am so excited I just got the Wilton Encyclopedia set in the mail today. I found someone on ebay selling the whole set. The books and patternbook for Vol 2 are original. I also got copies of the patterns for Vol 1&3 but that's ok, I still got a good deal on it even with that so i'm not going to complain. Although it did take a bit of a chunk out of my fun cake money for awhile, but oh will it give me ideas!!

I completely understand! I just got them last week. I can't stop looking through them. My husband thinks I'm nuts and the neighbors laugh at me because I've been walking around looking at cake books while I watch my kids play outside.

That's great! I'm sure you'll enjoy going thru them. Several months ago I purchased 5 yearbooks from ebay, some from late 70's, and some from early 80's and I got a really good deal on them. I just love looking at the pictures, and getting great ideas.

I know how you feel! I have one and two but not three yet. I have more cake books than the book store and library combined and I still don't have enough! I can sit and look at books all day long. My husband doesn't say a word and when my son does I remind him of how much time he spends looking at his Yu-Gi-Oh! cards!

My DH thinks I should be doing cakes every day all day with all the books I have-I got anything prior to 2000 on ebay back to 1970. Plus I have several hardback books from Wilton! It's so neat to look at ideas and "update" them..plus you never know what you will find!!
