I've looked in lots of catalogs (even from wholesalers) and don't see anyone listing single colors for spring flowers... just mixed bunches of various types and sizes. Where does McBride get his???

Darkwing Inner circle Nashville Tn 1850 Posts	Posted: May 23, 2003 09:09 pm 0 Air, That is the site I was referring to in my thread. I went ahead and made some of the flowers per the instructions, and while they are nice and all one color, they are a bit thick and hard to keep together in a clip.

Why not try spraying these things with some spray paint that works on whatever material your flowers are made from? I've seen stuff in craft stores that can be used on real flowers. :magicrabbit: "Pick any card. NOT that one!!!"
