    Hi,

    I could help you out if you wanted a handcrafted one made with wire and crystals/pearls. These are wands but the same idea can be for a cake topper. I actually make cake toppers for a local cake designer so I don't tend to put them on my website as I sell exclusively to the shop normally but I do them for people that ask and have made them for a few hitchers, RaeF being the recent wedding.

    and these other ideas in terms of the wiring

    You know where I am if you want to ask anything. x

    So many choices! I was looking for something like this:


    but to also incorporate dragonflies on the wires somehow along with some beading. Def after something that 'sprays' over the cake (now I just have visions of a massive cat spraying my cake, but I can't describe it any other way!)

    That is definitely something I can make and I can create dragonflies from Swarovski Crystals no problem and include them into the spray design. This is a much simpler version I do for the shop (I do a few for them) but this is for a specific cake design to echo the drips of the icing. This is just to show you previous work so it's not as full as the design you like but the method of making them in the same.

    I'm sure Lynsey or Kerri can sort you out but thought I'd add my cake topper page too which has a few examples http://www.louloubelle.co.uk/cake_toppers.html

    Another option could be crystals dotted along the strands then dragonfly charms at the end as the "drops".

    Please do drop me an email if I can help at all - ****@***********.**.**

    I've finally found a picture I wanted to post. This was for another hitcher as a christening cake topper and I used different baby charms. The strands can be positioned differently, more like the one you have posted.
