Christmas Tree Eating the Elf on the Shelf
Instead of a cookie monster, we have created an Elf monster with this funny Christmas Tree Face Elf on the Shelf idea. Quickly craft a Christmas tree eating Elf on the Shelf with these supplies and instructions.
Elf on the Shelf Supplies Needed
- The Elf on the Shelf Doll
- Cardstock or paper (this is the best cardstock which is perfect for your Elf printables)
- Paper Plates
- Markers
- Scissors
- Optional: Oversized Giant Googly Eyes
Instructions
Start by making your DIY Christmas Tree Face. You will need three paper plates for this prank idea.
Using markers, draw two eyes on paper plates for your Christmas tree eyes. You can also get these oversized huge googly eyes and use them instead.
Use scissors to cut out the middle of the third paper plate. You want to cut it into sharp teeth shape as if carving a jack-o-lantern.
Make sure your Elf fits for the paper plate mouth and lay it on the tree.
On cardstock, write the message I do like eating Elves.

What is Elf on the Shelf?
Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. 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. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD
