Elf on the Shelf: Creative Edition

I couldn’t resist. I could not contain my creative gene any longer. I did so for about 3 days and then I was plum out of uncreative ideas for Pretty the Elf! I have done it again, balls to the wall, with my creative ideas.

My husband is calling them my miniatures. And I think he is slightly disturbed by them. HA! Well not overly, since before he left this morning he added a little something extra to today’s scene. More on that later. For now, here are my 3 latest Elf on the Shelf ideas.

Date with the blonde

Ok Blondie here was one of two choices. I happen to have two of my old barbies here. The other is brunette. I went with the blonde because she fit in this truck better. They are at the Drive-In. Watching the latest Santa flick. It is a Rom-Com. Naturally, a great date movie. Don’t worry though, Pretty is not tied down to one gal just yet. He has a date with the Brunette later this week. This was Monday’s miniature.

Bros night

He had to decompress from his date. He needed some solid bro time. Playing cards, enjoying some beverages, and some eats. It was a long night. Blue monster over there won this hand. He had a full house. Notice the dollar bill? That wasn’t me. My husband left that there before he went to work this morning. This was this morning’s miniature. Tuesday.

Pilates

He had to work off last nights spirits and food. He is doing an Open Leg Rocker. I also built a mini reformer. I did not have enough regular sized legos to build the Reformer to scale. It bothered me a little, but I let it slide. It does have straps and ropes even! I would have put him on the Reformer if he wasn’t astronomically too large for it! the duplos would not have worked, since they don’t have any pieces thin enough for the footbar, shoulder rests, or risers! I had to work with what I had.

You will notice he also has a Magic Circle, a small ball, and a large ball. All for possible variations. He also chose a scenic location for his practice. By the gifts and the lit up tree. This is for tomorrow morning, Wednesday. I normally have been sharing my Elf photos in the morning the day of. I haven’t even shared this last one on Facebook yet! Aren’t you lucky to get a sneak peak, 😉 ha! I am just trying to only post one Elf photo a day, and that way I can look back at the dates as a reference if I ever need that for some reason. I was  bursting to share this one though. So I had to post it somehow.

So far, Jack has been amazing with not touching the Elf. Sometimes he wants the other parts of the scene, like on Monday he wanted some of his cars. Since he is just shy of 2, I let him have those parts if he really insists. But he leaves Pretty alone! He does enjoy looking at them and talking about what is going on in them.
