Steps:
- IMPORTANT: You will also need 1 Straw wreath, 10 inches in diameter
- Heat oven to 200°F
- Cut apples lengthwise from stem end through core into 1/4-inch slices.
- Dip apples into lemon juice to prevent browning; place on wire racks. Carefully place wire racks on oven rack.
- Bake 4 hours. Remove wire racks from oven and place on heatproof surface.
- Let apples stand about 2 hours or until completely dry.
- Place dried apples on waxed paper. Coat each side with 2 light coats of spray varnish, following manufacturer's directions.
- Tie 10-inch cinnamon sticks together. Attach to front of wreath with 6 inches of the ribbon.
- Glue dried apple slices and 3 1/2-inch cinnamon sticks to front and side of wreath, using glue gun.
- Attach leaves to ribbon on 10-inch cinnamon sticks.
- Make a bow with the remaining ribbon, and attach to wreath. Attach wire hanger if desired.
- Tips:
- Make the dried apples ahead of time. When it's time to make the wreath it will all come together in a snap.
- Pick up Rome apples for this project. With their pretty red skin and white flesh they are particularly nice in this wreath, though other types of apples are also attractive.
