Buying quality votive holders in bulk?

[Darbla]

I don't like buying the cheap, paper thin glass votive holders at Wal-Mart, so I end up paying more at Hobby Lobby or Michael's. I figure I might as well try to buy them online, except it's probably going to be in bulk to get the best price and make it worth the shipping. BUT... I don't want the thin crap and you can't tell when you're just looking at a picture online.

Have any of you bought these?

If not these, can you recommend some that are not the thinnest but are reasonably priced? I have bought some that were fluted or something; not sure how to describe them, but they are sort of vertically ridged all the way around so that when you are looking down at their top the glass is a zig-zag pattern.

Good grief, I better shut up before I confuse you more. My description is getting worse. :rolleyes2

They look good, and a good price. Hope they work out for you!

Yes, I just purchased 144 of the clear glass holders for my nephews wedding. They are very nice.

Actually, I'm pouring them all tomorrow.

Darbla,

If you want plain glass votive holders instead, I have purchased a few cases of these from Candlewic. They come in cases of 144 for $44.00 + shipping, and I have had great luck with them. I called and they sent me a sample before I ordered my first case.

I buy mine from TVG glass, if you call and ask for Tim he can help you. They have a clear and a whole rainbow of colors and they are thick walled glass, not coated with the color, the glass is colored itself. Those thin ones I would worry about them breaking in shipping or God forbid when a customer is buring a votive.
