The master of holiday DIY has officially declared the beginning of the Christmas season! And I love it! ❤️ 💚 Isaac, what a fun, unique project to kick off “the hap-happiest season of all”! 🎄 I never would have guessed that the entire mug of hot chocolate was constructed wholly from styrofoam. I loved your technique of chipping away at the styrofoam to make the surface of the hot chocolate look so dang realistic. ☕️ Thanks for getting “the most wonderful time of the year” started with such a wonderful tutorial. I can’t wait to see the next Isaac Alexander DIY Christmas 2022 project! 🎅🏼

Thank you for this! Instead of doing all of that digging and scooping the inside of the mug, I am going to finally use those loose useless blades that come with my hot wire foam cutting knife, make a square and cut and mine out that way.

Mmm all these storms I’m getting makes me want a cup that big 😋

I love this. I already made they cotton candy out of spray foam. Everybody loved it and said I was so creative. I told them no Isaac Alexander is creative, I just copied his. I checked market place and craigs list for the foam blocks nothing close enough to Atlantic beach. So I found out this morning there is a tractor supply store right up the road. They gave me some. I am so excited to start working on more stuff to go with my Christmas lights to music display. I am also ordering your book for a gift for my grand kids.

Dude you're the best

Just came upon your channel today when looking for DIY holiday decor for outdoor use. Although I’m totally new & hesitant about using any power tools, your videos are super helpful & easy to follow for a novice like me. Also wanted to congratulate you on your first book! My kiddos are older now, but would def like to support you so will be purchasing to donate to some of the teacher’s in-class libraries at our local elementary schools this year for Christmas. Again, thanks for the time & effort on the video content. Fingers crossed that mine will turn out as close to yours as possible!

Thank you so much for your kind comment. This is the perfect ending to my day. As someone who only started using power tools about four years ago, I know it may seem daunting at first but one step at a time is all I did. And if you do end up creating any of my tutorials, I’m easy to reach if you need further assistance, you can reach me via direct message on Facebook by looking up my DIY page called “Isaac Alexander DIY“. Lastly, thank you so much for your generous support. I’m so happy that you will be purchasing my book. I appreciate your kindness and goodwill
