Active Time6 hours

Materials

  • 1 bag Oranges Sliced thin

Instructions

  • Set the oven to 200 degrees.

  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set the orange slices on the parchment paper, as many as you can fit.
  • Put the sheet of orange slices in the oven. Flip the oranges every 40 minutes for the next 2-6 hours.
  • Once the oranges are dried, you can start making the garland. Use a needle to poke through the oranges to bring the twine or the yarn through.
  • Put as many oranges on the twine as you want. You can make the garland all oranges or can add in greenery to make it pop. 
  • To put greenery on the garland, cut the length of greenery you prefer. On the garland place the greenery where you want it, then wrap it on the twine with floral wire. 
  • Once the garland is done, hang it wherever you want! This garland can look however you want it to look with less or more oranges and the same with greenery.
