So after enjoying a thorough introduction to parrot tulips in class a few weeks ago, I spent part of a day practicing and re-creating them...
Drying petals:
Dusting the petals with color and pearl:
The finished tulip petals all taped together:
And a little peek at their centers:
I can't wait to try them in different colors and use them in a new topper...how about fluffy white tulips mixed with peonies and hydrangea? I don't think I want to wait until Spring for this one...so please stay tuned...and thanks for stopping by!

Gorgeous tulips! I can't wait to see them on a cake!
They're beautiful! Can't wait to see them with color and in one of your beautiful bouquets! Great job!
Beautiful tulips. I'd love to learn more sugar flowers, unfortunately I live very far from you. Your hydrangea tutorial was very helpful to me, as well as your tips on how to make your roses. Always check your blog to see if you post a peonies tutorial.

I have no words, your flowers seem real!
Those are so gorgeous and they actually look fairly easy to create. Thanks for sharing - will have to try my hand soon! PS See you will be teaching in CT in March and I am seriously wondering if there is any way I could get over for that! Best,
Cat
Thanks Cat...would love to see you in March! These tulips are definitely a favorite...I keep them simple in green and white, but they also come in really amazing color combinations!
