Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

If you are a novice when it comes to baking or crafting, you may be wondering how to handle a project of this magnitude. That’s understandable enough. We would love to give out the sort of thoughtful and delicious gifts that truly make the holidays great. Thanks to this DIY project, you can give the sort of gifts that are truly memorable this holiday season.

The Hot Cocoa Snowman is one of the best ideas that we have come across recently. Beauty Taken In is rapidly becoming one of our favorite YouTube channels because of videos just like this one. When you’re tired of giving out the same old same gifts year after year, the Hot Cocoa Snowman offers a much-needed break. You do not need to be an arts and crafts wizard to handle this project.

Maybe you’ve never handled a glue gun before. Or perhaps you are someone who does not consider themselves to be handy with a measuring cup. With the help of the Beauty Taken In channel, you can become something of an expert overnight. The world of crafting has finally been made easy and we are beyond grateful. The video had us hooked from the very beginning.

You get to catch a glimpse of the Hot Cocoa Snowman right off the bat, for maximum excitement. The scene that is set at the start of the video is also very easy to relate to. We have all gotten that “you’re going to love your gift!” text before and once it arrives? So does the fear. What happens when our friends and loved ones’ gifts are much nicer than our own?

Thanks to Beauty Taken In, this is a fear that we no longer have to live with during the holiday season. We can design the perfect gifts for all of the people that we care about most, without having to resort to gift cards. When you’re tired of the impersonal, this YouTube channel is here to provide you and yours with a much-needed respite.

Once you have had the chance to check out the clip for yourself, you’ll definitely want to share it with your friends and loved ones. It’s never too early to get a jump on your Christmas gifts. It sure beats running around like a madman once the month of December has had a chance to roll around.
