Elf on the Shelf Ideas | Magic Shrinking Machine

Elf on the Shelf Magic Shrinking Machine

We are back, so is the Elf! If you have been with us a long time, you know we have brought you a new Elf on the Shelf Ideas EVERY DAY (in November and December) for the past four years

Magic Shrinking Machine Printable! These cookies were too big. Elf brought home a magic shrinking machine and turned chocolate chip cookies into mini chocolate chip cookies! We wrapped a shipping box in Christmas Wrapping paper. We used some of the excess edges to line the cookies going into the machine and coming out.

Elf on the Shelf Idea Supplies:

  • Elf on the Shelf
  • Christmas Wrapping paper
  • Chocolate chip cookies
  • Mini chocolate chip cookies
  • Printer paper (unless you print elsewhere)

You can also use Hershey Kisses (turned into chocolate chips)  and candy canes of two different sizes.

For this idea, we also made you a printable!

I like to order my prints at Staples. It saves on ink and is only a few short miles from my home. I pick-up at the store, but of course you can upload them online and then have them shipped to your home.

  10. Give your job a name.
  11. Make sure your project is single sided. The orientation should be landscape.
  12. I changed my media to 8.5×10 and the media to 67 lb coverstock (I prefer a cardstock feel over printer paper feel.)
