This is Elvie, my little "elf on a shelf". I found her at an local antique mall. She is from the Elves Behavin' Badly brand (you
buy them here on Amazon for a good price).
She has been staying in the breakroom at work for the last couple of holiday seasons. Here's a few of her adventures this year.
First Elvie had a little fun climbing up my mini Christmas tree. It's one of the
little trees from Dollar Tree. I couldn't resist getting one to decorate the breakroom.
When I got home that day, I was shocked to find that Elvie had teleported there, or so I thought. This is actually another elf that my mom got from a thrift store. Surprise.
The next day, Elvie decided to do a little early "Spring Cleaning". She scrubs and does windows too!
Then, Elvie decided to she would rather just hang around.
Here, Elvie is getting ready to join me for lunch. She likes ketchup on her food.
Unfortunately, another employee accidentally knocked her off the shelf. Luckily, she landed on a step stool.
Time to get something to drink from the refrigerator, and Elvie was one step ahead of me.
Yay! The food in the microwave is ready. What are you cooking, Elvie?
Now she's getting into the extra kitchen supplies.
When working hard all day, it's important to stay hydrated. But, I think a gallon sized bottle may be too large for an elf.
One day, when I finished my shift, I discovered that someone had helped Elvie climb up the wall. Great, except she was too high for me to reach, so how will she get down?
This sign should do the trick.
A handwritten S.O.S note from Elvie the elf.
And it worked. A taller employee came and got her down and lowered her safely back to the top of the mini Christmas tree.
And hopefully, Elvie the elf will stay out of trouble for the rest of the holiday season. Or, at least for the rest of this week.
