I like the look of the chandeliers on the  soul pad and belltent but couldn't justify the cost.

Found a tealight tower in the seasonal section of  Tesco's put a hook on it and addition of battery powered tealights. Sorted.

It was me - parasol tealight holder £3.99 Morrisons, hanging basket 99p  from cheap shop(took chains off and put on tealight holder) and 6 flickering led tealights from Poundland packet of four costs £1.  It looks great in my daughter's Djarkarta but would probably be too small for the bigger bell tents.  I have seen a chandelier made out of an old lightweight bicycle wheel - looked great in a 5m bell!

I made one using the frame from a garden soil riddle with the mesh pushed out, 6 holes punched in it and 6 small s hooks which I had, I then just hang my favourite tea light holders on it. Can also then use jars/holders outside etc, also put a couple of coloured star holders to add a bit of colour but you could just use jam jars, paint or decorate and use garden wire to hang.

I nicked the idea from Julie on this thread, photos of hers on there, plus one of mine before I replaced the plain glasses with red and gold ones. 

I have some LED tea-lights now, but still use real ones when I don't have the Grandkids with me, it looks much better.

I also made a parasol light, two tiered. As I planned it to be a permanent part of my equipment, I drilled through the pole and fixed a loop and bar, to which I hung my chandalier. I used tea lights with no problem, providing there were no children present and the distance between the lights and the tent were sufficiently safe!
