Cutting Through Thick Silk Flower Stems
Decorating By thecakemaker Updated 14 Aug 2006 , 12:05am by thecakemaker

I'm working on my Calla Illusion cake for next weekend and i'm having trouble cutting through the stems without mutilating them. I've tried heavy wire cutters and dog toenail clippers (ones I use to cut dowel rods). Any suggestions what to try next? I need them to have clean edges.
Thanks!

hedge clippers work wonders.....
LOL, I love using my dog toenail clippers! I thought I was the only one who did that... great minds think alike!

Thanks! I'll have to run to the store tomorrow after work!
The dog toenail clippers were a great find! Too bad they wouldn't work on the stems!
