I’ve been decorating for Christmas the past two weeks and wanted to make an orange garland for our mantel! Have you ever seen one of the dried orange garlands before? I love how they add a little bit of color and a festive feel, but in a natural way!
An orange garland is perfect for styling on a mantel, tree, or to mix in any garland! I used the Gourmia French Door Toaster Oven and Air Fryer to dry the oranges, and it’s part of the Walmart Deals for Days sale going on now! It was originally $98 and it’s on sale for $49 today. You can shop the air fryer and tons of other amazing early Black Friday deals at Walmart online now and in-store on November 12th! They have a wide selection of sale items, so it would be the perfect time to get some holiday shopping done.
I’ve linked a few more amazing deals from Walmart in the roundup below, and included a tutorial for the orange garland too!

DIY Orange Garland Directions:
STEP 1: Cut the oranges into slices that are about 1/4″ thick.
STEP 2: Soak up as much juice as possible! This helps them dry much faster. You can use a paper towel or rag.
STEP 3: Use the dehydration setting on the Gourmia French Door Toaster Oven and Air Fryer to dry the orange slices! The oranges will probably take 6-8 hours to fully dry.
STEP 4: String the oranges on thick twine using a large needle. I spaced them about 3-4 inches apart and paired them with one pine garland, one cedar garland, and one wood bead garland.
So, what do you think?! Can’t wait to see how you style yours 🙂 And don’t forget to stop by Walmart and shop their Deals for Days going on now!
Special thanks to Walmart for sponsoring this post!
