Instructions

1. Prepare your dried orange slices the night before. Simply cut an orange into pieces and remove the centers. Let the rind air dry overnight on a paper towel.

2. Lay the wire netting out flat and cover it with moss. Fold the sides of the wire up and cross them to make a tube. Bend the tube around to form a ring and bind the ends together with floral wire. Place the glass bowl in the center of the tube.

3. Glue the nutmeg & star anise in clusters of three at equal distances around the ring. Glue two full sticks and two half sticks of cinnamon between each nutmeg cluster.

4. Cut the ribbon into three equal lengths. Make two loops with each length, gluing the bottoms of each loop together. Glue the loops into each cinnamon stick cluster.

5. Cut each orange slice in half and glue them "peel side out" to the ring. Glue one every inch or so, equally spaced all around the ring. Glue the anise around the wreath, alternating them every 2 to 3 inches. Use moss to in empty areas.

6. Each nut cluster will have 3 to 6 nuts in it. Glue the clusters all around the wreath, every 1 to 2 inches, filling in empty areas and unifying the design.

6. Place the votive candle on bottom of bowl (if you will be moving it, use a dot of floral clay to hold candle firmly to the bottom of the bowl). Fill around the candle with either small birch cones or orange rind.
