Does anybody have any ideas (hopefully cheap) on how I can make a stand to hold this light? I went to home depot and they had a similar one of plastic and the guy was saying to remove the bottom and drill a hole connecting the light to a PVC pipe as the stand. But the light I have is heavier (almost glass like) and the bottom isn't removable. I just need something to hold the light in the air like in the picture shown but I can't tell how they're doing it. Thanks in advance
Here's the light I have
Really strong glue and some good guage wire. Your not going to be touching it often so this will do fine plus you can bend the wire to hide it as much as possible.

And do what exactly? glue it around the black base, and hang from ceiling?

You can do that, if that is what you want
Or just stand the wire on the ground or glue it to something else

This is is probably the method that would hide it the best, I mean it's pretty straight forward stuff.

Doesn't seem straight forward to me. So what is holding the light up? A piece of wire isn't going to make it levitate.

...the wire is glued to the light...what is wrong with you? If the light is heavier than glue can hold up then loop the wire around the base once for extra strength. you can clearly see the same sort of thing being done in the OP picture. and if the light is too heavy for a thick gauge wire to hold up then you are using the wrong type of light.

You could also put something behind the base of figure to make it look centered below. Good idea there

I used copper pipe for mine with JB weld, then painted over it. Used hot glue for the wire and figure.

Not bad, looks quite nice.
