Today we're making our own vintage inspired knee-hugging elf. I have two original elves that I based this pattern on. They have plastic faces, which you can sometimes find in local craft stores or online but just in case you can't find those, we'll be making our own faces.
The original elf body is made of lightweight felt, folded and glued so that's what we'll do here. If you would prefer to sew yours, you can definitely do that too, of course!

ReplyDeleteDear Brittany,
ReplyDeleteI can see how my Christmas is slowly turning to a DIY. These little elves are too adorable to ignore, and therefore I will have to make something similar .. oh, maybe a garland?! :)
Thank you for sharing this.
And: thank you the inspiration.
Have a great weekend!

Trying to download it and it keeps giving me the pattern for the 1950's pixie ornament rather than the Christmas pixie.
