Looking For Black Manzanita Tree Centerpieces
Looking for black manzanita tree centerpieces that i can hang crystals and hanging candles from for my wedding. Does anyone have them to sell or know where to get them at reasonable prices?

There is a guy who sells Manzanita branches (any size) primarily for bird cages... He sells them on the side for centerpieces at a very reasonable price, but you would likely have to spray paint them black if he only has the light color.
Here`s what he sent to me when I was looking:
I need to know how big you need them about the longest i can ship is 36 inches long.
The girth will depend on what you are looking for. The branches in the photos are about 36 inches long with all their little branches intact these can be quite wide and irregular shaped and need special shipping . (the wood is so hard they do not compress much)
Let me know about how tall. And wide they will need to be i can then select a few and post some pics on the site for you to choose from
The guestimated price will range from about 8.00 each for smaller ones to 20.00 for a big fat 36 inch tall bush. The shipping charge gets bigger as the bush gets bigger
Also the postal service has been taking almost a month to deliver the packages i have been shipping lately i do not know why but if time is a constraint i might not be able to get them to you in time. The display in the photos was made from multiple plants placed in a vase and made to look like one plant shipping smaller pieces and aranging them can save a lot on the shipping cost
Good luck!

You can make these yourself out of your own backyard and spray paint them to coincide with your colors and hang crystals from them
