Hi Julie
I got the beads and wires off Lindy Smith's website although I have seen the silver beads and hearts in craft shops. I used various different sizes of pearls and heart shaped beads to get a different effect. The hearts I made myself from flowerpaste then dusted in sparkles and glitters. The wires are just a 26g silver wire which again I bought from Lindy Smith and the copper wire which I bought from a craft shop, I twisted it and played about with it a bit and put all the beads and hearts on and stuck it into a posy pick!
I don't copy any design, I just wing it a bit and pretty much make it up as I go along! I'd like to say I'm just naturally artistic but I'd be lieing! If I'm honest because I look at so many cake pictures on the web and in books, although I don't directly copy a cake I gain inspiration from so many different places which is lost in my brain and then comes out when I'm trying to make a spray or fountain topper! I have a little bit of various different things I've seen from time to time and I just put it all together!
If you need to know anything else, just ask, I'd be glad to help.
Stephanie
