Thinking chili peppers? Actually, they're magnolia leaves. Attach small leaves to half of a piece of cone-shaped florist foam with U-shaped florist pins. Start at the base, and work your way to the top. Apply a coat of glossy red spray paint to the leaves, and allow to dry completely. Repeat process to make a second magnolia tree. Line the mantel with greenery and berries from the yard, and then add a strand of white lights. Balance the arrangement with two trees on one side of the mantel and a simple bowl of red apples on the other. --created by Cari South
