It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf.

Have fun making your own homemade garland. This activity can initially introduced by the Scout Elf on the Shelf. After elf moves the next day, you can continue this fun Christmas craft for kids while enjoying a family movie night or craft day.

How to Make Marshmallow Garland

Homemade marshmallow garland is a fun Christmas activity for kids. You might even start a new Christmas tradition once you create one this year.

To get started on your Elf on the Shelf Marshmallow garland, gather a few supplies.

Supplies

• The Elf on the Shelf Doll
• Baker’s Twine (we have used Christmas Twine with Elf many times)
• Needle
• Mini Marshmallows
• Optional: Measuring tape

Instructions

It’s so easy to make marshmallow twine. The two things to warn you about are the time (perhaps put on a good Christmas movie while you craft) and the sharp needle. You need a sharp prick to go all the way through a miniature marshmallow so this Christmas craft might be best for older kids. Little kids can help by moving the marshmallow down the twine once it’s strung on and beyond the large needle.

To begin, thread a needle with Christmas Baker’s Twine. We used this red and white pattern. I cannot tell you how many times I use this roll with our Elf on the Shelf idea – it’s a good item to have on hand for Elf on the Shelf ideas.

You can go ahead and cut the length of string you want, start with five feet. You can also make more garland for the tree or fireplace mantle later.

Use your need and thread your first marshmallow all the way down to the end of the yarn. Tie off that first marshmallow the the others don’t fall off.

Continue to string more fluffy marshmallows onto your DIY garland. You can have the marshmallows touch, but we find a little bit of spacing kind of magical. Perhaps keep the marshmallows about one to three inches apart. Young children can help with spacing.

Once you have all your marshmallows trung, hang your DIY marshmallow garland on the Christmas tree or Christmas mantle. Turn your entire home into an indoor winter wonderland aka marshmallow world.

Check out these other Elf on the Shelf ideas with Marshmallows.

Can I use popcorn for this Christmas garland?

You can replace your marshmallows with other items or even combine items to make a fun pattern. Wouldn’t that be a nice Christmas toddler idea.

Make homemade garland by stringing cranberries, popcorn, gumdrops, cotton balls and more.

• Tape (masking or washi is great)

Instructions

This idea is really quick and easy to implement. First on paper, write the note “help us! The milk has gone bad.” Alternatively, you can use a few Elf on the Shelf jokes about milk (see above.)

Next, use a permeant marker to draw a funny bad face on the milk. You can copy ours. We were thinking ugly jack-o-lantern type look.

Insert your milk on the refrigerator shelf. Wrap fabric around the galloon jug to look like clothing. Then insert a cap for a milk jug hat.

Add your note.

Next tie up your Elf on the Shelf doll(s) to look like the milk did something naughty to Elf on the Shelf.

You can add washi tape or masking tape to cover the elves mouth.

Insert your elfs in the fridge and you’re done.

Enjoy this silly Elf on the Shelf milk idea.

The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights.
