ELF CRAZE!





















I've noticed each year the 'Elf on a Shelf' becomes more and more popular. I have a couple Kindergarten classrooms that have their very own elf this year too. By special Kinder artist request, they asked me to create an elf project for them. So here are the very fun results! We did step by step focusing on geometric shapes and layering. Some students even bent the arms and legs like a real elf. Here are the measurements I used:

Green-background: 9X12

Red (2) hat/torso: 3X4

Brown-shelf:1x9

Brown-hair:1X3

Peach-face: 3x3

Red -Legs/arms: 3X6 students cut in long strips for 2 arms/2 legs

White-hat rim/collar/mittens: 2x3
