I’ve never been one to do Elf on the Shelf cause well I forget everything. I am so busy with instagram and life in general. I mean I normally wait until the last minute to Christmas shop but this year I’m ahead of the game.
So since i’m so ahead of the game, I’m sharing the top 25 elf on the shelf ideas I’ve seen and free printables to help make this holiday season a little easier for you! We can all use a little more magic this christmas! If you have any more ideas feel free to drop them in the comments!
I know, I don’t even do Elf on the Shelf so why am I sharing these? Well I get a kick out of them. I think it’s hilarious and one day I’ll probably jump on the bandwagon. Until then enjoy these hilarious elf on the shelf ideas. Don’t forget to check out the free printables as well!

Aren’t they great? I seriously love seeing all the elf on the shelf posts. Especially since 2020 has been nothing but tons of disappointment. We need some excitement in our lives. Especially the kids. Being stuck at home, some doing virtual learning, let’s make the best of it!
Now the best part, the free printables. Super easy, hit that button below, enter your email and print it off! Makes it a little less stressful for us parents and a little more magical for the kids. Less Stress = Happier.
Enjoy and I can’t wait to see all your elf photos!
Elf ya later! Until next time! Xoxo
We have an elf and I always forget to move it so I love these ideas.
I definitely need these ideas for our first year.
