Elf Construction !!! (Free Printables included)









Excitement is building. I can't wait to start the fun and mischief this year with our Elf.

I am starting a construction site as I am going to put up a door for the Elves arrival. I have made up my own signs for this purposes and they are free below to download and share.








If anyone wants the pdf version just send me an email at littlelidssiobhan@gmail.com for some reason I cannot get the pdf to upload here.

Elf Calendar 2016

To help with the Elf on the Shelf for the month of December, I have made up a little calendar that will go in the packs. I am also posting it online here:




I hope to do up some pictures and ideas to help with these tasks.  The Elves are already raising havoc in my house. The sooner the arrive on your doorstep the better !! Its a bit like a scene from Gremlins here this evening, they are swinging from the lights as I type !!!

All the ideas above are just suggestions. Please feel free to add your own ideas and share your pictures with me. I will post them up here for others to see.

Mountmellick has been "Bombed" once again



What a great weekend to wake up to or is it all a dream. If your traveling through Mountmellick you would be forgiven for thinking so with all the dream-catchers and colour about the place.




Once again a great group has come together in Mountmellick to brighten up the town. It really is worth a visit and there is something for all ages. My daughter Isobel's favourite area this year is the picnic area out the Rosenallis Road. It really brings out her imagination and her special teddy came along to enjoy a picnic.









I love the whole town its hard to pick out one particular area, but at a push I have to say I LOVE the wishing wells. There are three (I stand to be corrected on this!!) One at Derrycloney picnic area, which is on the main Mountmellick to Portlaoise Road.



One at the picnic area on the Rosenallis Road.



And a third at the picnic area at The Commons, this is on the road from Mountmellick to Emo.


The truck is a great idea and the kids are queuing up in force to have their photos taken.





This year has seen the addition of some larger pieces which really feed the imagination. One seaside piece is at the entrance to Ashgrove



and another beautiful piece is on the wall of the Old Bank House. What great works of art.



Please check out the groups page at: https://www.facebook.com/yarnbombingmountmellick

And they are always looking for people to get involved, so get in touch if your interested !!
