pillar candle holders

hi,

does anyone know where i can get low (or almost flat) inexpensive pillar candle holders? i'll probably need around 30-40 of them for 3'x4' pillar candles. TIA for your help.

No good. They have projects on how to customize the candles themselves but thats not what i need.

Thanks for the suggestion, though.

I think this is what you need:

Glass Pillar Holder

Re: pillar candle holders

thats something like what i need but that's more than i wanted to spend.. i figured if i could find them for a buck a piece, i'm ahead of the game.. the candles themselves are going to run me about 60 bucks from eBay (for 36 of them) and we'll put a ribbon around each of them to dress them up.

the florist is already charging an arm and a leg (3 grand ballpark) and we're really not happy with them (house vendor but need to use them due to the hall's contract) .. we told them little green on the cp's and the sample they showed us had a LOT of green.. you'd think they'd be able to arrange them well using 3-4 dozen roses.. guess not :P i had them cut down the stems to make them tighter but i dunno.. they're still missing something (the CPs are costing around 150/ea, which seems absurd for what we're getting).. We were disappointed with the sample but feel stuck.

anyhow sorry about the rant.. just annoyed with the florist so if we can get the table candles together ourselves rather than getting ripped off further, itd be some sort of gratification.

if anyone wants to see the sample photos, let me know and i'll post them.
