Default Best place to buy Prima's

I've been browsing a lot of samples and have seen the Prima flowers on things. They look so great. Where is the best place to get them? Do you get them on-line? Is there a particular size that is best?

I know I'm probably late in the game to finding out about these, but better late than never!

Thanks!

Kim

I have to agree... Cindy is the best. She was extremely helpful - she helped me match the primas to the SU pattern papers! And her delivery is very speedy!

Is there a size or style you recommend? I want a good variety to play with. I'm thinking Medium, but I'm not sure.

Rookie here!

Size would depend on what you want to use them for cards, scrapbooking, giftables? I have all the colors in small and about half in medium. I find I use the small more often than the medium, but it's just how I use them on my cards. I don't know if this will help you but it's how I started buying mine, plus there are a lot more small sized ones in the bottles than medium or large, and they are all the same colors just various shades, unless you buy a bottle of mixed colors. I've bought all of mine locally so I'm not familiar with shipping costs etc.

Default knock-off primas

Just had to let you know that you can find knock-off Prima style flowers at Oriental Trading. I just got two boxes on Friday and they compare very favorably with the Primas I have. They offer two different boxes of 400 assorted flowers in pastels and brights for $7.95 each. There was a variety of shapes of flowers in each box. They also offer smaller packages of paper flowers in different styles. They also have a good price on mini brads (which I also got) that work with the flowers.
Hope this helps!

Does anyone have gallery samples they could link us to using Primas? I have loads and would love to see some new ideas for them!

I'm sure if you did an advanced search in the galleries, using keyword "prima", a bevy of ideas would turn up! ;)
