you could use those stands for seasonal decorating - Like at Christmas you could put up two artificial, lit trees, angels or nutcrackers - etc. Or you could use decorative pots and fill them with lit fauna - like red willow wrapped in small white lights. If you have ever been to the White house at Christmas, they have things like this - the twigs are often rolled in some kind of tiny glass pieces and the lights are inside the pots pointing up. There is a house on King Street in Alexandria, VA that has a grand front door - federalist style, that has a ledge over the door - the person who lives there places seasonal items on that ledge - in the summer she does huge star fishes - etc.
