MichaElf Jackson's Thriller

December 11, 2011

Connor let me transform "Star" (our Elf on the Shelf) into MichaElf Jackson in Thriller.  We have entered our Elf in this Elf Contest.  It would be awesome if we win.

We made the MJ Thriller jacket, added black spiral-curly hair, and painted a pair of Thriller boots.  We had the help of some of Asha's Monster High Dolls.  I made Star bendable with the instructions here.  I think we did a great job!  Go and like our MichaElf here!  I think we are #79.
