Ingredients

  • 4-5 oranges sliced 1/2 inch thick
  • 1 12 oz bag cranberries

Instructions

  1. Slice the oranges into 1/2 inch slices and lay on parchment paper on a baking sheet. Bake at 220 degrees for 3 hours. Check every hour to make sure they aren't turning brown. They oranges are done once they are dry and translucent in color.

  2. Let the oranges cool to room temperature.

  3. Thread your needle with bakers twine or jute twine and thread through the top part of the orange then thread in your cranberries.

    I used the pattern of six cranberries to one orange, but you can use any pattern you like. You can also make the strand as short or as long as you need.

  4. Hang the garland on your mantel, Christmas tree, or over a window. Wherever makes you happy!
