I just LOVE making Snowman Soup gifts! You can make this a very inexpensive gift too. Shop around for Christmas mugs. I bet you can find some at the Goodwill for under $1. Or plan ahead and shop around at garage sales in the spring and summer!!
I think these make wonderful gifts for teachers, coworkers, friends, the mail carrier, UPS driver and even for stocking stuffers.
This year I was able to find vanilla snowman shaped marshmallows. And yes, there are a vanilla color too! I wanted the tall "normal" candy cane but I didn't have any so I used two short ones instead.
You can find the hot cocoa on sale this time of year too! Like I said, you can make these pretty inexpensive if you shop around!
The poem can be found here along with tags you can print out. The tags are fun and some of them even have the poem already added to the adorable image. My image came from a program I LOVE to use called Print Artist. I believe it is version #21. I use this program for a lot of things because of the ease of use and the wonderful graphics it contains. And best of all it's got a LOT of vintage Santa's and snowmen (plus other holidays and seasons too).
And if you don't want to use their images with the poem I'm adding the poem so you can just copy it over and print it out on your own graphic!
You can wrap them in cellophane or some type of clinging wrap. Add some ribbons or bows. Dress it up as much or as little as you want!
