XP from DIY-Black Pedestal Frame Table Numbers

HI ladies, I saw a picture on TK or Pinterest or online somewhere of these really cute black pedestal frame table numbers.  They were part of a centerpiece/ table setting photograph of black/red or black/white wedding decor.  I would love to find them, but I can't find the picture to see if I can find out where they came from!  The only ones I can find are plain, and these were relatively ornate.
I did find a tutorial on how to make these yourself using frames and candlesticks, but I actually liked the ones I saw in the picture better, and in the end will likely end up spending the same amount of money.

The ones I saw were black, and the frame itself at the top of the pedestal was rounded with an ornate filligree type frame.  I cannot recall what the base looked like.

I'd be willing to find something in another color and paint them myself, if necessary. 

Here's an awful picture I just drew of what I think I remember.  Sorry it's sideways and blurry.  LOL




Any help you can provide would be wonderful.  I'm considering even getting the small black ornate frames I keep seeing online and in Michaels, etc and buying separate dowels and bases and making them myself, but if I could just find them to purchase that would make life much easier. Any help you can provide would be appreciated!!!

TIA!

    I just did a google search for "black table number holders with pedestals". This seems to be the most like what you have drawn:

    There are also these, with a branch type appearance:

    If you look at the example they have in the middle of the 3 pics under the first item, the one in the middle is a picture in a black paper frame that you could re-create around your numbers if you wanted. Not cheap, but all I could find. You could do your own more extensives search as well.

    Thanks for your help!  I came across those in my search as well.  I should have mentioned that I'm not looking for the wire ones that hold a table number, picture, etc, but for one that is an actual frame.  I did like the idea you pointed out though, with the middle picture on that first link.  Might be something worth considering.
    Thanks!
