Cute Pennant Flag Ideas for Christmas Elves

In the true spirit of Christmas, we’ve put together a few fun Christmas sign sayings. These Christmas quotes are turned into Elf flag props. Take a look at these short Christmas quotes as well as ideas on how to use them and the props needed to execute your idea.

First, you need to make your printable signs. Follow these simple instructions and you will have 12 Christmas pennant flags. Download your pennant flag file, which you will print on regular paper or white cardstock. I really like this pack of letter-sized Astrobrights white card stock. Using scissors or a paper trimmer, cut out the flag shape (two triangles attached.) Use a glue stick to attach the flags to a bamboo kitchen skewer (aka mini wooden dowel) and connect the end pieces. You also can use a small piece of scotch tape. You will have twelve different signs displayed as black and white Christmas pennant flags.

Now for the magic of the season! Using your Christmas sign flags and holiday elf doll, try some of these cute Christmas Pennant Flag ideas.

I’m Watching You

Idea: Does your child have a messy room? Did they get in trouble at school? Talk back? Bring this  Prescription paired with a sign that reminds your child Elf and Santa are watching.

Materials: Prescription, pen, Elf

Team Nice

Idea: Everyone is looking to be on the nice list! Create your own naughty and nice list or print ours in the free printable library.

Materials: Naughty and nice list, pen, Elf

Elf on Duty

Idea: This arrival sign is a fun Arrival Idea for the first day. For Elf’s arrival, add this sign to remind everyone who is in charge of reporting to Santa.

Materials: Elf

Merry & Bright

Idea: There’s nothing brighter than a rainbow. Pair this sign with a cute Skittles Rainbow. Or find the brightest, loudest ugly Elf Christmas sweater for a cute idea.

Materials: Skittles, plate, water, ugly sweater, Elf

Santa Stop Here

Idea: Start a Christmas countdown of the days until Christmas and make sure your favorite little guy announces and reminds “Santa Claus to stop here.”

Materials: Construction paper, marker, Elf

Oops

Idea: Create a messy idea and deny all plausibility with this fun sign.

Materials: varies, Elf

Holly Jolly

Idea: This fun sign can be paired with any festive Christmas activity. We think it would be a great pair with Christmas cookies. Bring the ingredients let your child put together the recipe and enjoy cookies and hot cocoa. By the way, I cannot lie, Christmas calories don’t count.

Materials: Cookie ingredients, Elf

Better Not Pout

Idea: Are you trying to correct any behavior? If your child has seen some occasions that might be placed one the naughty list, use Elf to offer some encouragement with a “better not pout” sign. Deliver with a behavior note notice.

Materials: Behavior note, Elf

It Wasn’t Me

Idea: Need a little mischief or mess? For another fun idea, find a good messy idea and have elf deny any part of the mess.

Materials: varies, Elf

Deck the Halls

Idea: Sometimes these sayings just make no sense. Take some of these funny Christmas sayings and make them incredibly literal. Hang a deck of playing cards down the hall. Attach these cards to green and red ribbons and hang them like Christmas banners. Have Elf holding the deck the halls decorative flag.

Materials: Deck of cards, yarn or string, tape, Elf

Peace on Earth

Idea: The true spirit of Christmas lies in peace… or peas. Let me explain. What if you play with this phrase? Pose the Elf on top of a globe (You can print a world from Google if you wish.)  You could even add a bag of peas, for peas on earth. Have Elf holding the sign.

Materials: Globe or printed world, peas, Elf

No Peaking

Idea: Put some newly wrapped Christmas presents under the tree. The kids will love the anticipation of what might be inside. Place Elf holding a “no peaking” sign.

Materials: Presents, Elf

These are only ideas.

These fun pennants can also be used as gift tags and holiday decorations. You can pair these cute Christmas flags with whichever elf idea you desire or use them around the house as cute Christmas decorations and photo props.  Imagine all the members of your family holiday a Christmas pennant in the framed family photos during December.
