How to Make DIY Dried Orange Garland

This simple DIY dried orange garland will only take you a few minutes and adds a beautiful touch to your home! All you need are some clementines or oranges, and any greenery from your yard. String above your fire place, or across a frosty window! 

What You Need for the Garland!

  • Oranges or Clementines 
  • Greenery like aromatic herbs- juniper or rosemary 
  • Twine 
  • Scissors 

How to Make!

  1. Preheat your oven to 250 degrees. Cut the oranges about 1/4 inches thick. Arrange them on a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
  2. Blot with a paper towel to remove as much moisture as you can. 
  3. Bake for 2.5 hours. Half way through, flip all the orange slices over. 
  4.  With scissors, poke a hole in the center of each orange slice. With the twine, weave through the hole. 
  5.  About an inch past the orange, take a separate piece of twine to tie on little branches of juniper. Cut off the excess string. If oranges are sliding down the twine, tie a knot on each side of the orange slice. Continue until you have the length desired. 
  6. Leave about 6 inches on each end to tie to wherever you choose to hang!
