I use a knitting needle to first poke holes into the oranges and lemons and then I insert the cloves. <br />I also like to age them in a mixture of spices, they last a little longer but they are not as pretty. <br />Merry Christmas to you, dear LalaGinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429484235583035595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688566251618947246.post-60109029326930032732010-12-15T12:41:13.317-08:002010-12-15T12:41:13.317-08:00Dear Lala,

I have a big box of Clementines in the kitchen and I'll be making a run to the store for cloves. Devine. I love your ivy wreaths. There was an abundance of ivy at my last place and I use to cut long strands of it and drape them over the doorways instead of evergreen branches. I put the ends in those little water tubes that florists used and hid them with gold ribbons. Water had to be added every day but they lasted throughout the season. I love your addition of crystals.<br />Happy Holidays to you and Moncheri,<br />Catherine xxceeceehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15962254736526651858noreply@blogger.com
