I made an elf door! Its a painted piece of wood... :) Decorated of course with a button door knob etc. I also made a little sign to hang above it. I put it near the baseboard on the wall in the living room. I can't wait for Evan to come over tomorrow night and discover it!!

Thanks! It's about 3 inches by 7 inches. They were precut wooden rectangles....I used one for a faery door in the summer.

Oh my goodness..I just thought of something. Why not use one of those door hangers to make an entrance you could just hang on the door handle easily. Just like above, but with the door knob hole. Hmmm??

This is too weird!!! I was just thinking on the way to work, how I wish I could find an Elf door to put out tonight so the elves could come through it tonight into the house! And I get to work and find this!!! I love the lights, are those pieces of fabric? I might could draw and paint some small lights around the door since DH is the King of Lights in our neighborhood! LOL Never thought about painting a piece of wood. I guess my lunch hour will be spent running to Hobby Lobby!!

The lights are little paper photo corners from scrapbooking supplies! You could also use a stiff piece of cardboard for the door and cover it with paper.
