The "Joule Thief"...

will allow you to power an LED from a single 1.5v battery. This transformer-less circuit consists of two bipolar transistors, an inductor, two resistors and capacitor to generate a higher voltage around the 50KHz frequency range. The entire circuit draws only about 15 milliamps.
