Round pretzels as many as u can fit on a baking sheet. Set a Hershey's kiss in middle...be creative with flavors. Bake on 170 degrees for 3-6 minutes. Push an M&M onto melted kiss. Again be creative with flavors. I put in freezer for couple minutes to quick harden.
We did menthe filled kisses with mint M&Ms and Carmel Filled kisses with regular M&Ms. Tried cherry cordial kisses but didn't work to well as the center was to liquidy.

Grandma Brown's Holly Cookies
My dad's mom, Ann made these every year and we LOVED them. We couldn't wait to get to grandma's house to have a holly cookie. They taste similar to a Rice Krispie treat, but way better!
½ cup butter
30 large marshmallows
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 ½ tsp green food coloring
3 ½ cups corn flakes
red hots
1. Melt butter and marshmallows, stirring constantly. Add vanilla and food coloring. Mix in corn flakes. Grease a spoon and drop spoonfuls of mixture on vegetable oil sprayed wax paper. Put red hots on and press so they stick.
2. Let sit until they have hardened.

DIY Christmas card display
Take fishing line or very thin metal wire (for jewelry making) and tie drape rings with clips every 4-6 inches. I have been wanting to make a cool display for years and never got around to it. I had just taken these off some curtains I had in our old house last week and it hit me. So yeah for creativity!
