I am falling in love with these, I have seen so many examples in the gallery.
What are they exactly?
Do they flatten?
Are they made of paper or cloth?
I plan on ordering some soon, but I was just wondering.
Thanks in advance
I just bought my first bottle of Primas tonite! I'm so excited! I've been a little slow to join this fad. Since I bought the Spring Bouquet punch, I kept telling myself I didn't need Primas. LOL I don't really see myself owning 10 bottles or anything, but I'll probably pick up a few more. :-)
If you buy the white primas you can match your paper by coloring. I like to use a drop of water to dilute the re-inker and then paint. I've been told by others that sponging the color on works well and I think someone said they use the watercolor crayons. I have a lot of primas but I do have 2 jars of white if I'm looking to coordinate something.

Dude, I only have 2 jars! I have a lot of catching up to do! ;)
Me too. I have two lonely flowers that I received in the kit for the DT I'm on. TWO lonely flowers...not two bottles either. I have quite a few silk flowers and won't justify the cost of Prima's until I get some of the silk ones used up. Although, my friend just bought one bottle and said she'd split them with me...maybe I'll rethink my justification!!! : )

LOL, Shannon! I feel your pain. ;) I only have a few myself! I was RAK'd a few and I am dreading the day they are all used up.
I ordered some from Jordan Paper Arts and they are huge bottles, there seems to be a lot in the bottles too, The selection was down because they were out of stock on a lot of the colors. I did order one of the Winter sets and it has a lot of dark or black flowers in it,,, I cant imagine what I will use them for. What a great idea to get white ones and color them yourself. Wish I had known that before,,, and why didnt I think of that, I am always coloring white ribbon to use. Thanks for the tip. After reading a thread on here about the flowers and the cost, I did think that Jordan's were reasonable and was pleasantly suprised at the size of the bottles, especially the milk bottle size. Now I have to use them instead of hoarding them. LOL
here is their website www.JordanPaperArts.com

What a great display you have! It could be in a store! I bought that little wooden crate also, at my LSS. The coloring is a great idea, though. I couldn't really decide what colors to get, so that solves it.
I LOVE PRIMAS!!
They are made out of mulberry paper and hold their shape well.
They come in a gazillion colors and styles!
I am totally addicted to them!
pm me your mailing addy and I will send you a few to try out!
Jan, you are sooo kind. I can't wait to try them.
I don't think I can get them locally, but I will be making an order soon.
Thanks for the info, I can tell I will be totally hooked!
Check out this thread! If you order from them, you can get a 10% discount just cause you belong to SCS! Daven is supposed to be getting a discount code! Have fun! Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Ok, robbrd, now I *do* have to have at least 10 bottles! LOL Those are gorgeous! I haven't seen a monthly collection at my store that carries Primas. I'll have to start watching! Another craft item to collect!;-)

I bought most of my Primas at ebbcreations.com and found them to be great to work with. They also have a most fabulous selection of Primas. I was able to get all of the Month by Month collection from there. I refuse to count my bottles because then I might have to admit I have a problem. LOL
Tell me about primas
