Marshmallow Elf Ideas

9 ideas

One bag of marshmallows can carry an entire elf season. They're snow, they're bath bubbles, they're building blocks and, according to every elf report on file, they're irresistible.

These ideas range from a five-minute marshmallow bath to an igloo that takes a little patience. Many pair nicely with an Elf Incident Report about unauthorised marshmallow consumption.
