    CUE THE CHORUS

    With the holiday season in full swing, nostalgic refrains that celebrate charismatic reindeer, twinkling tree lights, and dreamlike snowfalls permeate the air. Sing along to timeless melodies in the company of dearest companions as neighbors greet you at their front doors. Then, invite all to return to the comforts of home and hearth; the merriment is sure to continue. Petite carolers embody the spirit of the occasion from their perch on the mantel, where handmade stockings are hung with care beneath a garland of greenery and a string of tiny, tinkling bells. Sheet music doubles as decorative top notes when cut into strips and nestled inside clear glass ornaments. Incorporate the paper into your layered tabletop display and roll it into cone-shape containers for peppery popcorn dusted with Parmesan cheese. Silver Bell Sugar Cookies and peppermint-kissed macarons embellished with snowflakes strike a seasonal chord as sweet as the memories being made.
