last modified: 11 years ago

I would like to find a tea light candle holder like a runner, that is around 2' long, 3" wide and needs to be flat or no higher than 2" or so, I would like it for under my TV on the mantle, I have attached a picture, I hope you can see it OK, I hope to find something that is brighter like mustard color or a light tan, nothing dark or wood. Thanks for the help! I have de-clutter the mantle a bit.

I just googled tea light holders :) and the pictures are all wood or dark if they are the type you want. Have you considered maybe lining up little glass holders in different colors or patterns instead? unless you could find a metal one, but then that would be dark too.

I would prefer something light, pier 1 has a rectangular glass, like a plate, no holes for the candles, but I was thinking that as my last resort and add chips of a colored glass around them, maybe like a rust, whats are you're thoughts?

Thanks David for the suggestion. The light looks like it will fit, but we haven't been able to find housing that will fit our dimensions. Do you have any suggestions on this? Thanks so much on this.

I did a little search myself, and had no luck - sorry 'bout that. Could it be possible to paint the silver ones with spray paint? It would take some extra work, but you might be able to use something like Krylon, or Rustoleum. Just a thought.

Help spilled hot tea on white pants and light blue tee.

Of course I had been very busy and unable to wash the pants. Well, as soon as I walked in the door today I ran a load that include my pants, several pair of white socks two tiny white washcloths and then sat down with a nice cup of tea. Then I went to take a shower. Yuck the water was brown. I live in NYC with some of the best quality water in the world and I had just drank a cup of tea made with this water and washed my favorite pants in brown water. I feel like these pants are cursed, never mind I drank that water. I live in a multi family building and the building may have turned off the water to fix a plumbing issue which usually results in brown water for less than a minute but the water is not running clear. I can't rewash the pants and I cant take a shower. When the water is clear again I will wash in cold water and hope for the best. Sorry I just needed to rant.

Any of the above would look great. My fav is Beverly’s first one, ‘50’s diner light: You could also do a flush mount. Totally appropriate for that era and very retro-looking. All of these come in lots of color and finish choices. Dutton Brown Dutton Brown pendant Dutton Brown retro One more Dutton Brown And of course look at sputnik lights, so many styles available now. Can you show nearby lighting you have?

whatever you use, the light will reflect off the tv screen and and also be a heat source assuming the tv is close enough. I don't know if you will find exactly what you are looking for in a long enough strip, it might have to be several pieces. it depends on what the feeling of the room is that you are trying to achieve with the candles. I think it's a nice idea though.
