The tiger orchid's flowers are 1/2" wide and stands about 2 1/2" (not including the pot).

The Laelia has 8 bloomed flowers, that are barely 1/4" wide on the largest, and 4 buds (one is blooming). Stands about 1 3/4" from the pot.

Amazing! Is it hard to do? Is there a "how to" book? I want to make some!

Jeannie

There is no book, I just figured out the parts and worked with them. It's not hard, par say, it's just really tedious given that they are so tiny. The orchid with the little "star" shaped ones are barely 1/4" wide. The hard ones are the orchids with the really frilly parts. I haven't figured out how to make them look right in paper. I'd be more than happy to teach someone how to make them. Thanks again!
