During the twelve days until Christmas Break the King Street Chronicle will present staff favorites from the holiday season. This fourth edition will not include four calling birds but beloved Christmas songs, movies, recipes, quotes, and festivities.
Song: “All I Want for Christmas is You” Performed by Mariah Carey

1. Microwave the Candy Melts in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is smooth and completely melted.
2. Dip the Oreo cookies in the Candy Melts and cover completely, skewering the Oreos with a fork helps with this. Then place the cookies onto a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.
3. While the cookies are still wet sprinkle the nonpareils over them.
4. Place the cookie sheet into a refrigerator to let the chocolate set
5. When the chocolate has hardened, rearrange the cookies into a pyramid to resemble a Christmas tree.
6. Melt the milk chocolate in the same way you melted the Candy Melts, pour it into a ziplock bag, and cut off one of the corners. Use this makeshift piping bags to pipe curves lines onto the tree. Then place M&Ms onto the lines of chocolate to resemble a string of lights
7. Place the cookie sheet into a refrigerator again to let all the chocolate set for approximately 30 minutes.

1. Using the wire cutter, cut the hook off of the wire clothes hanger and bend the wire into a circle.
2. Alternatingly thread the beads and the clothespins onto the wire. Thread the wire through the spring on the clothespin, not through the hole created by the part that opens.
3. Once the entire circle of wire is covered in clothespins and beads, glue to two ends together with a hot glue gun. Be very generous with the glue, but also be careful not to burn yourself.
4. Cut a 12-inch length of ribbon and tie it into a loop around the wire. Use glue to secure the ribbon into place.
5. Use the remaining ribbon to tie a bow, and glue the bow onto the front of the wreath.
