So last year, Elvis Twinkletoes was sent by Santa to keep an eye on Daisy. Unfortunately, Daisy’s mammy wasn’t very good at ‘helping’ Elvis and he remained on the sidelines for the whole of December. Thankfully, Daisy doesn’t remember and I don’t have to hang my head quite so low. So this year, I have a plan… ok it’s just a list so hardly cunning, but I’ll be prepared.
Most of the ideas don’t require a lot of work or time, and can be done quickly after Daisy goes to bed. I ordered our Elf through Groupon, but I’ve seen them loads of places this year. I picked up a few accessories in a local Christmas shop but everything else is already stuff we have at home.
I’d love to know if you do Elf on the Shelf and what are your favourite ideas. Let me know and may the Christmas chaos begin!
