My New Christmas Wreath + Our Elf on the Shelf!

Share To:

I forgot to share my cute new wreath with you! I spotted the fun green feather wreath at HomeGoods right before Thanksgiving and dressed it up with red mirror ornaments and a little red glittered boot (also from HomeGoods). Our new front door has glass panel on it, so I needed something light that could hang from a suction hook. This turned out perfect!

I’ve been sharing a few photos of our Elf on the Shelf on our Facebook page the past couple weeks, but thought I would post here in case you missed them. Our family LOVES this tradition. Our kids wake up so excited each morning to find Shiny the Elf. Unlike some elves I’ve seen around this year, he is a model of good behavior and helps keep the kids in check! Here are a couple spots in our kitchen where he has landed.

Shiny also seems to like to hang out with me in my home office, so here he is on my desk, riding the white reindeer from our Vintage Rudolph shoot last year! {Yes, he & I  listen to the N’Sync Christmas channel on Pandora all day!}

More office time….

Does your family have an Elf that visits each year?

    That wreath is gorgeous!! I read in the newspaper that we’re getting a HomeGoods about twenty minutes away and I instantly thought of you 🙂

    We have an elf too, that Leila named Patches. I’m loving how into him she is this year. Every morning she runs out of bed looking for where he landed, and I even caught her telling him a couple of things she wanted for Christmas, so that he could report back to Santa. So cute!

    Cute, cute, cute!! I am also having fun with our elf and will be sad to see him go soon. I can’t help but pause when I saw the clock in the background behind your elf. Where did you get it?? I have been looking for one.
