Over a 10 week run up to Christmas I’m trying out all sorts of creative and festive activities on the run-up to Christmas. I will be chatting with Jon Wright on BBC Radio Suffolk every Friday evening all about these challenges :)
In Episode 3 – we make Dried Orange Decorations, using some old oranges a bit of heat and patience.
Follow this easy step-by-step instructional video to make your own decorations. A fun creative project for the whole family, plus your house will smell amazing and your using up a waste item too :)
