Thanks for the restraints!

Hi Everyone! Thanks for all your ideas. I have chop sticks and they will work for a little while, but the way I've always placed them, I look like *The Little Alien That Could.* The photo helped. I'll try that way. The cheap way to get hair sticks is to eat at a chinese place where they give them away with dinner. I take them home and file them with an emery board until smooth and paint with black nail polish. I have a white set (from the french manicure nail collection!) and the black... with little rhinestones from the craft store. But I still want MAJOR HARDWARE to hold this stuff firmly without the Alien Look. If any one ever finds anything, please post the who what when and where. Thanks!
