• Lemons
• Lime
• Linoleum knife with a simple tip (available in every handicraft store)
• 1 candle
• Ribbon band
• Angel hair (cotton wool)
  
  

This is how it is done:
An arbitrary pattern is cut into the topmost layer (until it reaches the white layer) of the lemons and lime with the linoleum knife.The lemon and lime distribute an agreeable scent throughout the room.A candle is placed in the middle of a cake plate or bowl.The lemons and lime are decorated with angel hair and the ribbon band around the candle.The fruits will dry out from the inside out in time and can thus be used over a period of many years.After Christmas is over, the fruits still look beautiful when placed in a high glass or lantern, even without the Christmas decoration.
