Aime, a fabulous reader of ours, sent us the CUTEST poem to use when “Elfing” this year. We had such a great response from our free BOO signs and instructions that we decided to go ahead and create a free printable “Elfing” Set!
In case you didn’t know…
Elfing=Boo’ing but at Christmas time and with Christmas gifts/goodies
and in case you didn’t know what “Boo’ing” is….
Basically Boo’ing is “Reverse trick-or-treating.” Basically you fill a basket or bag with goodies, toys or anything festive for Halloween and leave it on the front doorstep of a friend or neighbor. You must include a “door sign” and “poem/instructions” so that the recipient knows what this is there for and how to pass long the favor. The recipient will place the door sign on their front door to let others know that they have had a turn being “boo’ed”. Then the recipient gets a turn at this. Pretty soon the whole neighborhood is filled w/ homes with doors that have the signs up!
So… “ELFING” is the same thing! What a fun time of year and a great way to show our friends and neighbors that we care for them!
We designed 2 “We’ve Been Elfed” Door Signs and an instructions poem letter as well..

Love this! Surely going to use these this coming holiday season!
Thank you. I can’t wait to share with my 10 year old daughter who loves to ghost/BOO.
Love this. My kids always want to bake lots and lots of goodies at Christmas time, but I always hold them back because then we would have to eat it all. Now I know how we can do all that baking and not have to do all the eating and spread Christmas cheer all at the same time. Thanks so much!!
Wow, I wanted to do this because I was elfed myself!
Do you live around the Stonebridge neighborhood?
Oh I am SO in love with the “You’ve been ELFED” !!! Thank you, I will be putting choccies in bags, tying the poem/legs on them, and hanging on neighbours doors, bless you, and a very big THANK YOU ! xxxx
Love it, can’t wait to spread the cheer around our neighborhood!
we just got elfed and subsequently I found your blog! FUN!!! I love everything here!

This year for our advent calendar we did a new activity each day. Well, on day 3, we “Elfed” our neighbor and used your adorable printables. Thanks so much for sharing these and I look forward to using them again next year. Happy New Year!
