Running out of Elf ideas? Check out these locally made Elf on the Shelf kits
If you're like me and you've run out of creative ideas or just need a little motivation to move around your elf, Kelly Fair has something for you.
Posted — UpdatedI don't know about you, but my kids' Elf on the Shelf arrived on Monday and I'm already tired of the little guy.
Well ... if you're like me and you've run out of creative ideas or just need a little motivation to move around your elf, Kelly Fair has something for you.
"I originally got the idea after hearing several of my friends complain last year about how hard it was to find places to move their Elf on the Shelf every night, and even more difficult to find creative things for the elf to do," she tells me. "I had a lot of creative ideas, plus the organizational skills to assemble them into easy to use kits, and wanted to make life easier for my friends with kids. So, voila!"
Her goal with each kit, she tells me, was to include a few significant items for each theme that people wouldn't otherwise have lying around the house and for the kits to be quick and ready-to-use.
So, the "Around the House" series, for instance, has a three-day scene in which the elf uses a tiny wooden wheelbarrow and some tiny clay flowerpots to plant seeds, tend them and harvest candy canes. The kits include everything you'd need to set it all up.
"The kits also include pictures and a description for each setup, so if it's late at night and you don't want to think, you can just copy exactly what you see in the picture," Fair tells me.
