01 - Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove from heat, cover the pan, and let stand for 10 minutes.

04 - Mash yolks and combine thoroughly with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, vinegar or lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
05 - Spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg white halves, shaping into a rounded ornament-like form.
06 - Top each filled egg with diced red and green bell peppers, grated carrot, diced pickles if desired, and chopped chives to resemble festive ornaments.
07 - Insert a thin chive or parsley stem into the top of each egg half to mimic ornament hangers.
08 - Refrigerate the decorated eggs until ready to serve to enhance flavors and presentation.
