I did a diy project over the weekend, I made a dried orange garland.
They have been popping up on my newsfeeds and I feel I love with them. I saw the price of them and decided to make my own. I do have a crafty side.
I didn’t know that dried orange garlands have symbolic meanings. Orange slices symbolize the sun, which becomes more present after the winter solstice when the days begin to grow longer.
Dried orange garlands are made for the winter solstice since they represent the return of light and warmth.
In many traditions, oranges are also believed to stimulate love, prosperity, and a sweet & happy life.
This is a wonderful sentiment to bring into your home during the holiday season. I put mine over my kitchen sink and love how it looks.
I’m leaving it up during the winter as a reminder that the days are getting longer.
It warms up the space just like the sun does.
That’s it! This is a short post since I thought I’d share my diy as an fyi. It was a fun and easy project with lots of how-to articles online.
Goodnite guys. 😴
