Elf on the Shelf Idea: You’ve Got Mail

It's that time where you're still putting the elf in different situations but your'e also finding the you're running out of ideas and are focused on other things. Shove him/her in an envelope and throw a stamp on their head. I did. 

SUPPLIES: 

• Envelope
• Stamp
• Something to place your envelope and stamp in (I found this mailbox at Michaels in Meridian a couple of years ago)

INSTRUCTIONS:

Do everything you can to shove that skinny little elf into an envelope. Start to feel guilty that you're shoving your child's behavior monitor into a folded piece of paper and break the elf's head through one side. Attempt to stay awake yet another night and regret even getting into this whole elf thing. Put a stamp on the elf's face while calculating how much this whole project is costing you - will you need to get just one more stamp for your Christmas cards you haven't yet sent out? Throw the elf into a mailbox or just on the floor (because, let's be real, it doesn't really matter) and go to bed.
