Centerpiece HELP!

I am creating my own centerpieces and I stuck on candle holders.  I have created a tree-like centerpiece with branches and jewels but i need something to hang the tea lights from.  I found some that were $1.99 each but that's too much for how many I want.  Any ideas as to where to find some?

    You need something to hang the tea lights with?  Have you tried fashioning something out of wire?  If you could find the glass bowls, you could make something like this:[img]http://tinyurl.com/yzfnbqa[/img]Or maybe you could coil a lot of wire like the top of these holders:[img]http://tinyurl.com/yh7ma5a[/img]Some kind of glass holder would probably be best because of the dripping wax.Michaels usually has a pretty good sale the day after Thanksgiving, you might be able to find something then, too. What are your colors?  One of mine was red so I bought a ton of stuff after Christmas on clearance for 80% at Hobby Lobby.  Maybe you could do that type thing.

    My colors are aloe green and white.  Thanks for the tips - I should have known that this would become very labor intensive!  :)

    When is your wedding?  My future hubby did all the hard work in making our hanging votives, how many do you need?

    I am looking to have about 4 per tree, 12 tables, so about 50!
