I celebrate Christmas usually but this year will be my first year celebrating yule/the winter solstice as well! I'm going to be making special winter themed offerings for the deities I work with and I'm thinking of making some sort of traditional dessert. I found a recipe for icicle cookies that looks interesting, so I might bake those.
and my snowman is gonna be a DnD NPC. his name will be Simon and he's a beginner Wizard who accidentally polymorphed himself wrong and is now stuck as a snowman. the adventurers must take Simon along with them to a town that will have a potion to undo the magic but Simon is like a regular snowman and must be kept cold lest he melt. every hour he's too hot he will take 1d4 of damage. using various ice related spells or creative use of items will be needed to get Simon safely back to himself. once he is returned back to normal he will give the party his thanks, a few gold each, and a vow to never do magic again. he can be convinced to become an adventurer with the party, and once taught is actually quite good with a bow. he also has a cute hat in both forms.

I celebrate two holidays. I celebrate Christmas both as it's considered an American holiday as well as a family tradition. Though a bit weirdly. Sometimes we put up a tree but usually I just put up ornaments and Christmas decorations up throughout the house. (Mainly in the living room, but it spreads out as we get more, lol.) We do a gift exchange too.
I also celebrate Yule. I'm ... ahhh, still figuring out how I want to celebrate it, to be honest. I do know that this year I want to light a wood candle as a stand in for a yule log. And maybe do some baking during it. :)
For making a snowman, I did that last year. I made a cute little sock snowman. It's really easy, and you can probably put some essential oils inside to make it smell nice. Here's the instructions to make your own: https://www.easypeasyandfun.com/no-sew-sock-snowman-craft/
(I'll post in the discord as well.)

I only celebrate Christmas! I usually spend the 24th with my mom and siblings, then the 25th I go to my Nana and Poppy's house and spend the day with them! But to to the circumstances this year we had Christmas all December long by sending gifts sporadically to one another in the mail, it's been really fun!
Also for my snowman I used NightWolf's tutorial linked in the discord! The sock snowmen. I made them out of fuzzy socks I was gonna throw away and gave them out as gifts to my family. :)

We celebrate Christmas for the winter holidays. :) Usually our aunts, uncles and cousins come over and we throw a big party at our house where we exchange gifts and eat lots of yummy food! Pork with baked apples, seafood pasta salad, baked mac and cheese, buffalo cheese dip, veggie trays, assorted nut dish, different pies, ice creams, and fresh baked cookies?!?!?! I love the food ;o;
We may not be having a party this year due to the pandemic, but I still want all the food regardless >w>
As for a snowman, my kid says he wants to make a snowman using lots of leaves and sticks for hair? xD I don't generally like to put actual clothes on them because I don't wanna risk them blowing away or getting stolen :"D We'll use sticks for arms for sure! he has he wants to color it?????? Not sure how we'll do that, but we'll see xD Maybe I can get a cheap spray bottle with some water and food coloring and spray it
