Centerpieces and I need your help!!

So I started planning my centerpieces almost a year early since I want to use a flower that is really only available during August. I have known that I wanted to do a green apple centerpiece but I'm struggling to know which looks best.

I need approximately 15-20 centerpieces

I bought the Vases for $2.00 at Dollarama

The flowers are Dahlias and cost approx. $4.00 each and this has three but I'm hoping to use a huge Dinner Plate Dahlia they are about 8 inches wide and cost $8-$10 each but then I would only need one. (t my Dahlia's are a little droopy, i bought them 2 days ago)

I am hoping to add some height to the vase but I'm not sure what looks best. i already bought the E6000 glue to glue the glass together.

So it's either the first image. I found 20 of the EXACT SAME milk vases at Salvation Army for 75 cents each.

or the second image

The base for that one is a candle holder from Pier 1. They were marked down from $4.00 to $1.97 and I was able to get 6, luckily my little sister just started working there again an will hopefully be able to get me the rest I need to do the rest.

Either way the centerpieces will be under $20.00 each

I think the 2nd one makes it look a little more sturdy because the top is wider to hold the apples, but i also like that the 1st one brings the white down.  Both look super cute!

Actually looking again, they are probably the same size. :) The all glass looks like the bottom of the jar is the top of the vase though, so it may look likes its one piece better.
