Dried Oranges in Seasonal Decor
Today I’m sharing how to use dried oranges in seasonal decor.
Dried oranges in seasonal decor are a perfect way to add natural elements for fall and the upcoming holiday season. It reminds me of slower times and nature and coupling dried citrus with spices such as clove, cinnamon sticks, greens, star anise, and pinecones adds instant warmth for the cooler weather.
I share an easy way to make dry oranges and add spices such as clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon for even more scent!
Dried Oranges Fall with Hydrangeas
See how I have used dried orange slices during the fall months. They are beautiful with acorns and dried hydrangeas and can be found at the grocery store.
The pairing of the dried orange slices with the hydrangeas also may be unexpected.
Here is an example of how pretty these dried citrus slices look during the fall season.
Dried Oranges Slices for Christmas Decor
Dried orange slices are perfect for Christmas. There are many ways to use these.
Some examples of using dried oranges for the holiday season:
How about a dried fruit garland? Here you can see dried whole oranges. Also, you will notice dried apple and pear slices too.
All of these easy ideas will make great gifts too!
Dried Oranges in Centerpieces
Now let’s see how to use dried oranges in centerpieces. Dried citrus can add a festive and natural look to your home decor, especially during the holiday season.
Adding dried orange slices to evergreens in this centerpiece adds the perfect color for the holiday season. Also, the pinecones, walnuts in the shell, and small birch logs add texture.
Also, the elegance of the Jardinière and its age is a great way to add these natural elements.
Also adding a lace studded crown to this holiday centerpiece adds an elegant look to the rustic dried oranges and pinecones.
Dried Oranges And Mantles
I particularly liked adding whole dried oranges last year to the garland on our mantel. I like it so much I may think about doing it again with a different twist.
Dried citrus is a great way to display them with different fresh greens.

Thank you for Pinning
I love drying fruits for the holidays. And the house smells amazing.
I have always sliced the oranges. I have never tried to dry them whole as you have them in your arrangement. I will have to give it a try. Homemade items are the best. Everything looks so beautiful.
