Okras are not only made for eating - but for crafting, too! Dry your okra yield to create the most festive wreath around. Follow these simple steps: 1 - Lay your harvested okras on a flat surface in a dry and dark environment 2 - Once dry, spray paint your okra with your colors of choice 3 - Start assembling your wreath by hot gluing the okra to an old wicker wreath or even cardboard (you will have to cut the cardboard in a circle, first!) 4 - Add fun bows or dried flowers to elevate 5 - Enjoy!
