    and it turned out really well!

    I had purchased some lanterns that were a bargain awhile ago and needed 6 shepherds hooks for them to sit on tables but I couldnt find any that would sit stable!! I showed FH my inspiration and he said he could do this for me! FH finished creating the last one last night (he is a professional boilermaker/welder)

    What you think? Excuse the black tablecloth, couldnt find a white one.. Does it need anything around it or just fine by itself?

    Those are awesome!!!

    Your FI did an awesome job :-)

    I don't think they need anything around the bottom. I think they do well on their own.

    I am glad you got things worked out too :-)

    I love the look of your lanterns!  Very clever is your FH.  Are they going to be lit from inside?  Either way, they are too cool!

    @crane - my guy is a boilermaker/welder.  Is he a BN?  OMG, I have a tone of projects for him to do.  Can you send me instructions for those.  I was just talking about using alittle taller ones to sit around the dance floor.

    undecided as of yet if they will light up, havent roadtested it with LED lights. Should probably give that a shot!

    Love them!  He did a great job!  Maybe a moonlighting job as a hook maker:) I think you should light them.  Maybe the flameless tea lights?
