Steps:
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. Combine the marshmallows and butter in a large bowl and microwave on 50-percent power in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each, until melted, about 1 minute 30 seconds.
- Stir in the vanilla and enough food coloring to make the mixture a deep green, 10 to 15 drops. Stir in the cornflakes until they are completely coated.
- Working with wet hands, form the mixture into twenty-four 2-inch balls. Flatten on the prepared baking sheets and poke a hole in the middle of each with your finger, molding the sides as needed to form a wreath shape. Decorate with the cinnamon candies to create holly berries. Form the red candy strips into a simple bow on each wreath. Sprinkle lightly with the white nonpareils for snow. Let set at room temperature to firm up, about 2 hours, or refrigerate 30 minutes.

Hint 1: Buy generic corn flakes at the $1 store! Hint 2: If the "berries" don't stick on the "holly", put the cold holly in the microwave for 20 sec. (on waxed paper) and then add the berries.

CHRISTMAS WREATHS
These Christmas wreaths are made using corn flakes and cinnamon candies. They're fun to make and eat. If the mixture is cooling too quickly, set the pan in a skillet with one inch of very hot water to keep the dough manageable.

Tips:
- Choose fresh greens: Use fresh, pliable greens for your wreath. This will help it hold its shape and last longer.
- Gather your materials: Before you begin, gather all of the materials you will need, including a wreath form, greens, floral wire, ribbon, and any other decorations you desire.
- Create a stable base: Start by creating a stable base for your wreath by wrapping floral wire around the wreath form. This will help to secure the greens and other decorations.
- Attach the greens: Attach the greens to the wreath form using floral wire. Start at the bottom of the wreath and work your way up, overlapping the greens as you go.
- Add decorations: Once the greens are attached, you can add any decorations you desire. This could include holly berries, pinecones, ornaments, or ribbon.
- Secure the decorations: Use floral wire or hot glue to secure the decorations to the wreath. Make sure they are attached securely so that they do not fall off.
- Display your wreath: Once your wreath is complete, display it on a door, wall, or window. You can also hang it from a hook or place it on a table.
Conclusion:
Creating a Christmas holly wreath cluster is a fun and festive way to decorate your home for the holidays. With a little planning and effort, you can create a beautiful wreath that will add a touch of cheer to your holiday décor. So gather your materials, follow these tips, and get creative!
