I have tried every kind of wire I can think of and it won't work!!!! I am trying to make the curved/corkscrewed wire "things"( now I'm using techincal terms) with small,dime to nickel size, balls on the ends of it and I'm at a loss. I am making a Frog cake for a birthday party and you can't have a frog cake without the flys. If anybody has any ideas let me know.
Thanks

I prefer to use 20 gauge wire, although you could go as small as 22.
Hope this helps!!

... and I also use craft wire (eg. Wild Wire) found in hobby stores. Make sure to shop around because it can be expensive!
