Make this pretty dried orange garland just in time for Fall and the Holidays. You can use these citrus wheels and garlands throughout your decor. I'll show you how.
I used oranges and lemons but you can use other citrus fruits too. I sliced them about 1/4-1/2 inch thick. I placed them on a baking sheet with parchment underneath. Put them in a 200 degree oven for 3-4 hours, flipping half way through.
The slices come out darker, but oh so pretty! I threaded rope through them to complete the garland.
Hang them from your mantel. Use them with your table centerpiece. Nestle them with your greenery and garlands for the holidays. Use them as a vase filler. Or set them in a bowl with pinecones and cinnamon sticks for a holiday potpourri look.
Tie them along a wreath for a pretty and natural look!
You need four things only to make this wreath : A hoop, faux eucalyptus, your dried orange garland and some floral tape. Attach your greens and garland as you see fit. Voila! These dried citrus garlands will give your home a pop of color where you need it.


Stunning and Simple - just the way I like my decor. icon
