Shiny balls. I got 'em.

Potential gold balls roof finial idea number one. Looks not too bad, really! For cake toppers! I have them in two sizes, so this is the first of the two to try. They came wired, so with care, I wound three of them together and wrapped fine wired around the three stems. I glued for extra sturdiness, and of course, the holes I drilled in the roof to accommodate them were too small.
I have ordered some wooden balls which I was going to wire, but this may be a quite reasonable alternative until I figure how to attach a wire thread to wooden balls and not have them slip off repeatedly. I'm sure small children to some extent, and nosy parents to a much larger extent, will be tugging at them to see if they'll come off. Which they will.
