Whether you love or hate the whole Elf on the Shelf phenomenon, you can’t deny that there are some people who go all out with their ideas. The photos in this article are not only creative, but we guarantee that the whole family will crack up over them.
1. Who Farted?
If there’s one thing kids love, it’s fart jokes. Who am I kidding? Everyone loves fart jokes.
2. Taco Tuesday
I’m not sure what it is, but seeing these elves wrapped up in tortillas just cracks me up. I guess it helps that I also love tacos.
3. All Tied Up
It looks like this poor elf has been captured by a hostile group of army men. How will he get out of this one?
4. Oh C’mon
I would expect this kind of behavior from a frat boy, not a sweet little elf. Sigh. I guess no one can resist the temptation of the photocopier.
5. Piggy Bank Heist
If you have a piggy bank and elves in your home, beware! Apparently, elves are skilled at bank heists.
6. Underpants Raid
I guess elves are also known to raid underwear drawers. Such mischevious little creatures.
7. You’ve Been Santa’d
You might look at this and think it’s some sort of petty vandalism, but this elf sees it as getting into the holiday spirit.
8. The Elf Strikes Again
It looks like you shouldn’t leave permanent markers laying around. These elves love to doodle, from the looks of it.
9. Elf Poop
You know what they say: everybody poops and that includes elves. Of course, everyone knows that elf poop is actually chocolate.
10. The Old Mustache Trick
Looks like these elves are getting naughtier by the minute. This little boy will be in for a surprise when he looks in the mirror.
11. Taking Wrapping Too Far
I get that some people want to deck out the entire house for Christmas, but this is a bit much. If you really had to pee, this would be the worst.
12. Frozen By Elsa
Whatever this elf did to Elsa, I guess she just couldn’t let it go. Okay, I couldn’t resist. Sorry about that.
13. That Detail, Though.
This one is…wild and a little too realistic.
I don’t think this parent’s kids will be eating Curly Wurly Squirlies ever again.
14. Elf The Hairdresser
This was honestly shocking when I saw it. If I were the kid who saw this, I would be so mad!
15. Don’t Mess With The Rebel Alliance!
“This is what happens when my adult son comes over to house sit over the weekend,” Diane Marie captioned the photo on Facebook.
16. Puzzle Piece Thief
“The real reason your 48 piece puzzles always have 47 pieces!”
Oh, so that’s why…
17. Rough Night
Hey, elves gotta go out and have fun too!
18. Poor Mr. Potato Head
Some of these are so morbid!
At least there’s a snack included in this one.
19. Trapped
The elf is trapped in the balloon, what the heck!
These are getting wilder and wilder.
20. Elf Relaxation
After all that mischief, elves gotta relax too!
21. She-Shed Mystery Solved
This elf is really out here committing crimes and ruining she-sheds! Thankfully Cheryl had State Farm insurance to get a new one.
22. Taste The…HELLO
And now there really is Elf on the Shelf cereal!
23. Wrecking Ball
Don’t tell me that the song isn’t stuck in your head after reading this letterboard. It’s still a jam.
24. Don’t Drink The Lemonade
Now I know that if someone offers me a glass of “elf lemonade” to definitely not drink it.
