    I wonder if anyone has a suggestion as to how to display pathmarkers indoors instead of outdoors because I really want these pathmarkers, but they have stakes and are meant for outdoors. The reason they aren't good for me outdoors is because of plugging them in would be a pain putting them in the backyard, and also worried about stealing, but more about plugging them in. So any ideas? I'm sure someone has them indoors. I'm not the only thinking they could be put indoor somehow.

    Many ways.A simple PVC X with a short leg sticking out of each side.Would not need to be very long.I bet 1/2 inch PVC would be plenty.Then in middle of X drill a hole the size of the light stand.Maybe a little hot glue to hold in place.

    Thick blocks of styrofoam painted would work. You could get it wide enough and thick enough to stick them in there. Dollar Tree even has some that might work. Good idea.

    You could get some 2x4's the length of your display. Paint them black and drill holes for the stakes to go in to. The link didn't work, but if they are too high you might want to use a 2x6or 2x8 for more stability.

    Or you could fill coffee cans with sand.
