Step 1: Take your orange and, using the tip of the clove, poke small holes all over the surface of the orange. Space the holes evenly for the best look.
Step 2: Push one clove into each hole until it feels secure. Cover as much of the orange’s surface as you like, or create decorative patterns — get creative!
Step 3: Place your clove-studded orange on a plate and set it in the center of the room or any space you want to freshen up.
Extra Tips for Lasting Freshness
- To keep the orange fresh longer, lightly roll it on a countertop before studding to release oils.
- Replace the orange every couple of weeks to maintain fragrance.
- For an extra boost, add cinnamon sticks or a few drops of essential oils on the plate.
