How do you make dew drops on silk flowers?

Question

I am creating all the flower arrangements for an upcoming wedding. I would like to make the bride's bouquet more special than the rest, and want to make the white roses look like they have dew or rain drops on the petals. I've tried gel glue and clear tub caulk (which doesn't bead up too well), and haven't found anything that looks like the ones in the store. Does anyone know what to use to get this effect? I'm considering using clear glue from a hot glue gun, but am concerned it might damage the flower. Has anyone tried this? Would appreciate your help, if you've successfully done this. Thanks! <*)))><

Update:

Hey Darkfairy...what's dry glue? Is that like Elmer's white glue? <*)))><

That is the way to do it - hot glue gun.  It won't damage the petals at all - they might even show you how to do it at Michaels or AC Moore if you have those craft stores in your area.

Dew Drops On Flowers

I've done that before. You take clear dry glue and apply using the bottle or even better, a dropper! apply it to the places you want the due, let dry. make sure it is quick dry, you don't want it coating the flower!

I think you're right with the hot glue. I'm pretty sure nothing would happen to the flower.
