Cereal Necklace Station

Your elf set up a necklace-making station: cereal, string and a sample necklace.

A 10-minute idea for The Elf on the Shelf® or any elf doll.

What you need

  • O-shaped cereal
  • yarn or string

How to set it up

  1. Wrap tape around one end of each piece of string so it threads easily.
  2. Thread a short sample necklace and hang it on your elf.
