Thanks for that Amy but mines a boy! I am bidding on an out fit for him on ebay! Ends the weekend and I WILL win it as I need to photo him for FB and his passport that I am going to cheekily ask you to do! lol
Got the build a bear hat and scarf set and tea set thingy from Argos today! Going to use the teaset case as a suitcase and then bring the cups out for a midnight picnic! At least that way this suitcase has no bears on it! Ooh I need to make a list of what the elf will do each night!!! EXCITED!!!

how much do you want to spend? i found these on ebay - i was thinking of using as babies as only 6.5inch tall - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Peppermint-Elves-Beanbag-Boy-Gund-Plush-Doll-Elf-BNWT-S-/310345041973?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4842018835 and they are really cute, there are more from other sellers.

he's only 6.5" tall so you should be able to make him a small bed from what you have. my 8" elf has the foot of an old stocking, and has xmas ribbon sewed round the top.

the other 2 both have "fancy organza" bottle bags as they have long legs.

the 4th doesnt have anything yet, but i do have loads of the white velvet from where "the elves" made kids stockings last year, so maybe "the elves" could make her a sleeping bag from it!

i have just been on the elf name generator and my elf is called Tootsie Sugar-socks
I can't wait for him to come now so i can make his bed and sort a passport out.
Then i just need to sort of some things for him to get up to, i thought of something really good the other day and i knew i should have wrote it down cos i can't for the life of me remember what it was!
I won't have time for him to come everyday but i really want to make an effort this year.

may do a fb page or blog for him.

I stumbled upon this thread earlier this morning and have spent the ENTIRE day,reading it and its links and looking for an elf for us.

Thank you yummy-mummy-amy for the ebay link to the little gund ones...I bought one too and the name generator has just named him Tootsie Crazy-Legs

I have 2 boys at the moment and am pregnant with a girl-due in January.I was thinking earlier of having a girl come (coz Santa wants the boys to get used to having a girl in the house).Im sure the name will pass for a girl but will the doll?

Thanks Lexuslass for volunteering to take the Christmas Card lists. I would have done it, but I'm busy with the thrifty money thread.

Shall I pm you now, or do you want me to do it closer to the time?

yummy-mummy-amy

lexuslass - if your happy to compile a list and then send out to each of us that would be great. i have already pm'd you.



polkadot - you could always add an extra bow or something to her hair or find/make a small red handbag/purse for her. there are ways of doing it.

So you think we could get away with "it" being a "her" then?Thanks for that.

I think Im on page 16 at the moment but Amy I wanted to mention if you are playing passport office this year (still havent caught up that far)Im pretty clue'd up on editing stuff and if you sent me the template Id be happy to help in that area.Im a cake decorator and I do edible images via post so spend loads of time designing toppers and editing stuff and what not;)
