I also have out my christmas oranges with cloves stuck in them and red ribbons around them . I have them in a golden bowl by the entrance and when you walk in it smells like christmas ! You can actually keep them for ages by from time to time putting them in a clean plastic bag with oil flavoured with cloves , mandarins and cinnamen . Leave them for a day or so tied in the bag then just put a new ribbon and display again . They look very elegant . If you close your eyes and smell them it transports you to Christmas !
