I am making my own place card holders.

I have a latex mold for making aprox 3 inch diameter ammonites (our place names all relate to Whitby,Whitby is famous for its fossils)

So, my original thought was to make them out of plaster of paris, and use clay to make a little stand at the back then stick a wire holder thingy into that which will hold the place name card.

However, I thought I'd be able to buy the wire holder things separately - even something like those with crocodile clips on the end or something, but I cant find them anywhere! A search of the bay and amazon has only yeilded one potential supplier but the shipping costs are extortionate!

So now I'm a bit stuck....has anyone made there own place names? Im struggling with how to attach the name card to it! Xx

I was thinking the same as Almost Mrs B what about florist supplies - maybe wire or plastic card holders? I think they are called floral pick card holders xx

how about cutting a line down the back of the ammonite and putting the cards straight in it?

Could you get the wire holder thingys from a £ shop and take them off their stands? I think they had packs of 4 for £1 last time I was therexx
