Elf Yourself!

Thank you, Pinterest, for this idea. Simple, but it did take a while because all this detailed paper-cutting was tricky. These are my new favorite Christmas tree ornaments! Oh, and I did cut Jay’s ears into points to complete his elfy-aura. I grin every time I look at our tree now.

Our hand-print-foot-print reindeer were quite the adventure. We mixed the brown paint from red, yellow, and blue. It took almost all of our paint to get the color right. Rose has 6 fingers on one handprint, and Jay wrote his own name.

Add in some intense Christmas goody-making, and you’ll know all about our week.

These elves are adorable! I have a feeling my little boys will be appearing in elf form on our tree before too long. Cute idea!!!
