DIY citrus for the d?®cor, naturally

Holiday D?®cor Ideas with Citrus

To create this, slice some nice seedless navel oranges. ?áLeave the slices to dry in an oven with the light on, turning them every 4 – 8 hours until the slices are dry. ?áThen string the slices together with some star anise.

These strings can be used in the window for a very modern look. ?áWhen they are hanging in the window, they remind me of the sun. ?áIt is fun to look at these solar-like slices as the sun shines through them.

Orange pomanders are a classic. ?áUse a skewer to pierce the rind before adding cloves. ?áUnless you live in a dry climate, make sure the finished pomanders are first well dried in an oven or dehydrator before setting them out.
