How do you display cast leaves?

A group of garden friends were together and the question was presented. We wondered how people displayed their leaves. Right now I have only one displayed and it is tucked in among some plants that bloom in similar colors as the leaf. 
It would be great to see some of your pictures. Thanks. Marie |

I love to display some of mine indoors. They look great as a centerpiece or on my black kitchen counter. I found black metal candle holders at a dollar store. They are about 6 inches tall with a round flat bottom and a round flat top about 3 inches in diameter. Between the bottom and the top is (hard to describe but you have seen these a million times) thick black wire curved into a zig zag or concentric circles and soldered. I twisted the pointy thing that holds the candle off and I can balance a leaf on this thing and it will be very hard to knock off (certainly not impossible but it is much steadier than I would have thought.) I have put some pretty big leaves on these stands and they look good to me.
