How Do You Make Mini Orange Peel Wreaths?
Following this article, you will be able to make your own mini orange peel wreaths that will last for years to come. It’s a great way to use your peels and they are lovely when mixed with various ribbons and bows. You will want to peel the oranges as you eat them or use them in a holiday recipe (or even make juice, for that matter). As you peel the oranges, break the peels up into small (about 1 in x 1 in) squares. Wash the orange peels under water. This not only cleans them, but also makes them more pliable. Cut your wire and form into the shape and size you desire. String the orange peels onto the wire (the first year, you will have fresh orange peel wreaths that should be nice and fragrant). As the years pass, your oranges will dry into hard pieces. They last for years!
