What wire do you use to support wings?

^ What the title says - what wire do you use to support additional sculpted pieces such as wings or horns? Thanks in advance!

I depends on the size of the wings.  Bigger wings = higher gauge wire.  I keep 18 and 24 gauge on hand, myself.

I use 18g floral wire, painter's tape, and tinfoil, myself, but I'm cheap like that :)
