I'm planning on putting g.paste butterflies on a cake this weekend. I need some advice on how to put antenna on without messing them up or making them look sloppy. I was planning on using 26g silver wire. Any advice would be appreciated.

you could try using the flower stamens...wilton...michaels or hobby lobby. they already look like antenna. just stick them in a gumplaste glue and put them in while gp is still wet.

you could do this it is the easiest and quickest and if you can't get the correct colour you can paint or dust them. Or use gold or silver wire and curl the ends around pointy nose pliers or pipe a small dot on the end, either way it will look great! icon_wink.gif
