Using three tube vases filled with black faux pealrs in varying heights. To achieve a more prominent look the &#8220;Lampshades&#8221; are elevated by glass orbs in varying sizes filled with Bear Grass and dark purple Dendrobium Orchids. The &#8220;Lampshades&#8221; are trimmed with Dusty Miller leafs and dark purple Dendrobium Orchids.<\/p>\n<p>The judges were unanimous in their decision, and here is what judge Els Teunissen said regarding the winning entry: &#8220;<em>Such creativity, in creating this lovely centerpiece. Using and matching vases together makes these 3 pieces unique.
