To make these Christmas wreaths you need:
- dried fruit
- cinamon sticks/walnuts/items for decoration
- taffia
- string
- needle
Method:
- First you need to dry fruit in the oven. I recommend oranges, satsumas, grapefruits, apples, and limes. Slice the fruit into thick slices, place on a baking tray, and sprinkle with the orange and the cinamon.
- Place in the oven on a low temperature until the fruit has dried out. This can take a considerable time.
- Leave in a warm place until completely dried out.
- Using a needle and string, string the dried fruit together. You can add other items such as cinammon, foliage, and walnuts as desired.
- Finally, use ribbon or taffia to tie up your garland.
- Enjoy the Christmas decoration you have sucessfully created.
