My Grandma gave us these elves back in the 60's and each year we put them on the tree. I keep seeing them everywhere making a comeback. Mom has them somewhere in the ornament box.
thank you for your kind comments...I hope you can stop by again during 12 Days of Whimsy!

LOL I love this post. Shelley's elf, named SHelby, is so naughty. ;P

I am so sad this morning....both girls are back in school after a full week of Fall Break here at home. *sadface*

I took down all of our Thanksgiving decor last night, but I have not started on Christmas yet!

They make me smile. If I had all of those I would be smiling all the time. Maybe I had better start collecting. Great holiday post Diane.

Your little elves are adorable! I was actually looking for a cheap little dollar elf and couldn't find one. I tutor at my son's school and always try to bring a little prize for my students. Hope I can find one as we are on the letter E!

LindyLouMac said...

I still cannot believe Christmas is so close. At least I am getting slowly organised with my blogging and actually joined in with MM myself this week.

Vee said...

Sweet little elves! Haven't heard of that movie and must keep it in mind. I'm always looking for cute ones for the grands.

GratefulPrayerThankfulHeart said...

Your elves are adorable! We have just one little elf and he has been a part of our family since the girls were little tikes. His name is Cashew. He has spawned some relatives that now live in our grandchildren homes. Their names are Al Mond, Pistachio and Mac Adamia. They flit about hiding in silly places waiting for the kids to discover them.

Your elves look like good buddies!

Caty said...

Hi Diane,

You have a lot of dolls, books, photos, you are a great collector of beautiful things.

I like your elves, they are funny.

Best regards,
