Is this Dan Howell in a different timeline? Love it, thank you

Thank you for taking the time to do this tutorial for us. The beauty of this kind of ornament is the translucent quality so I think I will hang mine up in the window so all the beautiful orange light comes through up like stained glass. Thanks again Jan!

???? I am also a lesbian but... I don't know what this means!!

[@theauburnfirefox8767]

@@deborahbee7122 It means that a lot of lesbians where really extravagant earings and now they can make orange ones

[@deborahbee7122]

@@theauburnfirefox8767 Ooooooooh, I seeeee. thanks!

Just tried doing this and it's worked v well but a lot faster than expected!
I put my slices on a wire rack and had it at about 120*C (about 250*F) with the fan on and it's been about an hour they're pretty much done!
I had one juicy orange and one sad old orange (if you're from the UK you know exactly what I mean) and they've turned out beautifully (if a little curled).
I've flipped them over and turned off the fan and we'll see how they do in half an hour. 🤞

awesome :D love this tutorial!

[@kayliedreizler6724]

This is so cute! How long do they last?

[@Mossfaerie]

As long as they're not in a humid area and your area is dry, they should technically keep forever!

[@artforthaheart]

@@Mossfaerie do they attract bugs??

[@angeliegenetti1523]

Thank you so much!!(:

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome!

[@maddyburnell3327]

is it possible to cut the oranges the night before and put them in the oven the next day? I'm assuming it will be a yes but just thought i'd check. thanks ! :)

[@shantanakillingbeck332]

Did you do this? I needa know lol

[@melmiranda2524]

250 Celsius or F?

[@JanHowell]

F

[@kyrstenjovitab3656]

Could i make these into earrings like this? Or should I resin them first?

[@emmae456]

I think if you made them without resin they would work but might not last as long because the Garland is supposed to last the whole holiday season

[@donnaharris8097]

Lastime I tried cutting an orange like this , I ended up looking like I'd fell in the river , why do American oranges look so not so juicy 😁

[@ilse3887]

250°celcius???

[@lucylucy1551]

No 120 c

[@kiahthomas2593]

How long will they last?

[@fatherlylike5023]

unless they get too humid, they'll basically last forever
