    Put cinnamon on the oranges before dehydrating them use lemons and limes too.

    Thank you for this tutorial, I've been looking for something like this!
    How long are you usually able to keep these decorations up? (Specifically the oranges and cranberries)

    • @stuartmoorestextiles

      So glad to hear that! :) If you dry the orange slices all the way, they will stick around for months and months and months. The cranberries will look nice for about a month if you weed out the already shrivelled up one when you are making the garland initially. The popcorn stays really nicely for a few months too if it stays untouched and the pinecone hangers can last for years. Hope that helps!

      Do the cranberries attract anything like gnata as they decay over month er I bought cranberries and a grapefruit this year I been dying to do this for years can't wait but paranoid about rotting fruit

    I'm trying to follow along on translation so i apologize if this is already stated. Can you sell cranberry ornaments at a fair or something? Do they have to be dried first or can they last without. Just not sure. Thanks!

    • @stuartmoorestextiles
      @stuartmoorestextiles  Год назад

      There are wooden versions you can buy that look just like string cranberries. This version is just cranberries, not dried. They last a few weeks if your house is very warm, a month if it's cooler.

    So beautiful, how long will the cranberries last?

    • @stuartmoorestextiles

      It just depends on how hot your home is but in my experience 3-4 weeks. ☺️🎄

      For the popcorn, yes! Highly recommend but just double up the thread. ☺️

    Are these cranberries from the bag or frozen?

    • @stuartmoorestextiles
      @stuartmoorestextiles  2 года назад +2

      Fresh from a bag. One thing I have noticed, I always use what is around, one year I used organic one year regular. The regular cranberries last much longer!

    • @stuartmoorestextiles
      @stuartmoorestextiles  11 месяцев назад

      For the oranges I use twine and for the cranberry garland I used cotton tapestry yarn which is the same size as household cotton twine for baking (found at any hardware store). Hope that helps! ☺️👍

    Can i use salted microwave popcorn???

    • @stuartmoorestextiles
      @stuartmoorestextiles  2 года назад

      I would avoid buttered popcorn because it makes the popcorn soft and you need the popcorn to be strong enough to stay in one piece when you thread it with a needle. If there is microwave popcorn without butter I would give it a go! And let me know how it goes if you do! ☺️

    I came here to see how to dehydrate cranberries.
    You didn't show this, so did you dehydrate the cranberries you showed in the video????

    • @stuartmoorestextiles
      @stuartmoorestextiles  11 месяцев назад

      Nope, all cranberries in this video are normal cranberries. Dehydrated cranberries look like raisins.

    I came on here because I thought that there was instructions on how to dry out pomegranates. I can’t seem to find it anywhere. I want to draw a whole pomegranates for decor.

    • @stuartmoorestextiles
      @stuartmoorestextiles  Год назад +2

      Dehydration is pretty straightforward: cook at really low temperatures until the fruit loses moisture. A whole pom might take longer than an orange slice but it's the same process.
