34 Creative Ideas for Your Elf On The Shelf
He sees you when you're sleeping; he knows when you're awake. We're talking about Elf On The Shelf, of course, the little guy (or girl) who plays Santa's proxy in the days leading up to Christmas to make sure kids are being good. The problem is, Elf On The Shelf is supposed to move around the house every single day. That's 24 days of original and creative poses. Before you give up and just start sticking Elfie in different spots on your tree every day, here are 34 ideas to try.
1. ELF ON THE SHELF ENCOUNTERS ELSA.

Warning my friends, I don't 'do' elf on a shelf.
I, like Vader, find their lack of shelf disturbing.
