Break broccoli crowns and cauliflower into florets of different sizes.
Christmas tree:
Insert a toothpick into a broccoli floret and stick the other end of the toothpick into the bottom of the cone until secure. Work your way around in a circle, building upwards until the whole cone is covered. I used bigger broccoli pieces at the bottom and smaller as I got to the top.
Cut the top and bottoms off the orange and yellow peppers and slice the rest of the peppers horizontally. Make one cut in each slice to make one long 'ribbon'. Alternate each color around the whole tree attaching with a toothpick at each end.
Between each ribbon attach cherry tomatoes and Persian cucumber slices to your desire.
Cut out the shape of a star in one side of the red pepper. Attach to the top of the tree with a toothpick.
Snowman:
Insert a toothpick into a cauliflower floret and push the other end of the toothpick into the bottom of the cone until secure. Work your way around in a circle, building upwards until the whole cone is covered. I tried manipulating the space between the cone and some of the cauliflower towards the middle to help distinguish the snowman's 'body' and 'head'.
Slice the red pepper horizontally and then make one cut in those slices to be able to attach around the 'neck' with toothpicks as well as along the one side of the snowman to make its 'scarf'.
Attach one celery piece to each side to make its 'arms'.
Using four horizontal toothpicks and four vertical toothpicks attach 20 whole olives to make the 'hat' and place on top of its 'head'.
Place one end of a baby carrot in the middle of its 'face' for the 'nose'.
With the 7 halved olives, create the 'eyes' and 'mouth'.
