Ho ho ho!

Welcome to my Elf on the Shelf design hub!

I made my first Elf activity calendar in my dorm room in my freshman year of college. I was seeing Elf on the Shelf posts everywhere on Pinterest, one of my favorite websites to spend time, and decided to get in on the craze. Of course, my uploading/design skills weren't all that great. Oh well. You have to start somewhere. 



I already had a printable site and a matching Pinterest, The Party Patch. Elf goodies seemed like the perfect things to add. 



I was SO confused when I first heard about the tradition. I was all, "an elf that followed you everywhere? How does that even work??" Well, I was thinking of an elf that actually, physically moved. This elf doesn't move at all. He stays perfectly still...and leaves for the North Pole every night!



I'm still creating printables each and every year. It's a tradition that I would have loved. And now, I'm bringing some Jesus into it, too. Because when you think about it, Santa teaches a lot of lessons about faithfulness. Being good, believing in things you can't see, and doing good deeds? It's the Christmas spirit.



Why come to me? My printables are pretty consistent looking. I make Elf stuff every year, so there's no need to worry about spending precious holiday time creating the perfect letter. I personalize some letters, too! Also, what most people don't bother creating that I do are intro/goodbye letters for subsequent years where the elf visits your house. So you can just come here for at least 3 years straight without ever having to write your own letters. 


Take a look around!



Holiday cheer,
Morgan
