So, how are your elves getting on? Are they still being creative in their hiding places, or are they running out of ideas?!
Stealth Elfie continues to focus on places where the wee girl can’t reach him, which does limit his choices a little… But, his hiding places have certainly entertained the boys! And, the wee girl now gets quite excited when she spots him too :)
Their favourites this week were when he hid in daddy’s water bottle, took them ages to find him in there; and the day that he helped himself to the Starburst and left a trail of wrappers through the kitchen and living room! He has also been found hanging upside down above the front windows, reclining in a lampshade and studying our Santa photo.
This morning they will find him here. I think this hiding spot is more reflective of mummy’s state of mind than Stealth Elfie’s creativity…
With a week to go, can Stealth Elfie up his game? Or is he going to have to start reusing hiding places?!

Ha! Thank you :)
Sara these are super ideas .. i love the one of him peaking down! lol xx

Love the drinks bottle hiding place. :)
#ElfTakeover
That was a good one!
I love the drinks bottle – we’ll have to try that one! It is a little limiting keeping him high up and out of the way, I know, but still fun ;) Thanks for linking up with #ElfTakeover x
Thank you – that was a good one, took them ages to find him :)
We have our Elf high up too. We have a different elf – Christopher Popinkins that I bought in Bartells sale last year for $8 and he is much cuter than elf on a shelf. In the book it says he can’t be touched or he will lose his magic and have to go to the North Pole to get it back. It’s been a resounding success, he writes notes to the girls and it has encouraged him to write back. Off to make gingerbread cookies for him as we speak.
Brilliant! I wish I’d been a bit more organised with notes etc. I’ll plan ahead next year :)
I don’t think you have an elf in your house, more like a ninja! Some brilliant positions taken up by Stealth Elf – especially the water bottle! Brilliant!
Thank you! Ninja elf :) The water bottle was a good one!
I love your wine sign! I keep forgetting to move my elf #rubbishmummy
Every night we get in to bed and then one of us says ‘did you move the elf’!!
I like my wine sign too, it’s perfect :)
