I am trying to track down (without much luck) some frosted tumblers or soy container candles as I reckon they would look better in these as any wet spots would be less obvious and give a better looking end product, does anyone use this type of container or have any idea where I may get them from  Huh?
Thanks

polly, I don't do candles, but would it be an insurance concern if the glass was got from ikea instead of a candle suppliers? It might not be heat tempered.

Thanks for the links, the ones at full moons would be ideal but are a bit to pricey to buy in a larger quantity, I have tried Ikea tumblers  (they are called godis )and you get 6 for £3.79 and they seem fine with soy wax as it does not burn at such a high temperature but they only do clear glass.
The ones at candle supplies will be ideal for votives I am sending for some of those, thanks Eire
