\"Elf<\/a><\/p>\n

Before I get to these little jar huggers, I just want to take a minute to wish my gorgeous little girl a happy birthday! One year ago, she made her appearance, and she has not taken a break since. She’s energetic, curious, cheerful, and so, so fun to have around. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So I’ll just drop this craft here before I run around like a chicken with my head cut off making cakes and playing fun games all day (You hold the toy, now I hold the toy, now you hold the toy…Seriously, it’s the best game in the whole world!)<\/p>\n

These mischievous little elf huggers are made of fun foam and are the perfect way to jazz up that cookies in a jar treat. I’ve made two different sizes, just in case you were thinking of gifting someone one of these cute little mug cakes in a jar<\/a>. The small ones are sized for a 4 oz baby food jar, and the large ones are for a round quart jar. <\/p>\n

This project does involve painting, so although the craft itself is easy and the hands on time is pretty short, these do take a while because of drying. I would estimate they take about 2 hours from start to finish, simply because you want the paint super dry before you flip them over. They’re easy to mass produce though, so you could theoretically have 5 or 6 done in that time. <\/p>\n
