Today I want to share with you my elf. This magical creature fills your home with a fairy tale and an expectation of a miracle. Crochet elf – a magnet on a fridge, decoration on a Christmas tree, an element of decor or clothes will create a special festive – fairy atmosphere at any time of the year, in any weather and for any age in your home.

This and other Mouse ornaments are the perfect, handmade addition for you to work up and add to your Christmas decorations. Children will love them from year to year and can enjoy decorating the tree since they aren’t breakable!

You can use the ornament for making the Disney pin, magnet, hairpin or backpack clip. You can also use it for decoration of Christmas tree, tag for suitcase in Disney cruise, jewelry (using thinner yarn), bookmarks.
