Christmas is right around the corner and last year we started a new tradition in our home. It involves a mischievous little elf named AppleJack, also known as Elf On The Shelf. Last December I had learned about the “Elf On The Shelf” phenomenon and got a late start due to the fact that my creative juices weren’t flowing as freely! The holidays can be stressful and with so many other things to think about, acts of goofyness can sure lighten up the mood. This year I made sure to plan early and was determined to compose at least 25 Elf On The Shelf ideas to share with you, my awesome readers.
I am becoming completely addicted to my silly friend and the priceless reactions of my daughter!
Check out AppleJack’s naughty, nice, and quirky antics this year..
Lol, these are awesome! I really want to do this one year, but this year I just have too much going on (plus my never ending morning sickness). Thank you for sharing your Elfish creativity. 😉
The marshmallow bubble bath is too funny!
You are so creative w/ ur elf. I like seeing whats next. I just like looking at them. I don't participate. There's some inappropriate ones out there that are hilarious, but for adults!
I love those! Especially the marshmallow bubble bath and the zip-lining 🙂
Wooow! I want to bathe in marshmallows too like that elf! 🙂
I don't have an elf to share but these are such awesome ideas. My boys would love this elf. Thanks for sharing!
Oh my goodness, I absolutely love these ideas. It took a lot of time and thought too. How cute. It looks like your daughter was really excited to see what the elf was up to too. I think the fishing one is my favorite. I don't have kids yet, but I am a nanny and I have a blog too. I wanted to get an elf of the shelf for the blog. I think I will definitely do it next year since I am late this year.
Adorable ideas! I've managed to stay away from Elf on a Shelf until this year. All of a sudden this year my daughter has been begging for one. I'll need all the creative ideas I can get when I finally do break down and get one!
Oh, I love the one of him fishing! How cute 🙂 And my next favorite would be the kissing booth or the snowmen donuts …….
I love the Christmas tree you made with the plastic cups! How do you come up with such neat ideas???
OH MY FREAKING GOSH WOMAN! You really go all out for your elf on a shelf! Geeze, I would love to be your kid! The magic is everywhere!!!!!!!!!!! Loved this.
Love love love love!
These are awesome! Would you mind sharing the printable of the “just hanging around sign”?
Thanks!
Let me see if I can find it! I made it on my older desktop. Should have it saved.
Love it! I got some new ideas but now I need to write them down so I don’t forget! Thanks for sharing.
