I just did a string of coconut shell lights that I'm pretty happy with. I'll post a pic when I get the chance. A tip: you gan get your hands on smallish (softball sized) coconut shell halves if there's a Trader Joe's market near you - they sell their coconut ice cream in them. My mom's hooked on the stuff, so she sends me half a dozen every couple of months. These are so handy to have around - I made the string of lights with them, and they also make great and stylish replacements for the little bamboo snuffer that comes with tiki torches.
