Light String Elf Decor

"This tall handsome elf could be a relative of Mr. Potato Head since many of his parts are created separately and stuck into a Styrofoam body and head. His 8.50" height is weighted down by a hidden metal washer base to prevent him from wobbling on your shelf, table or mantel. Polymer clay, wire, and paint are other elements used to decorate this elf. Shiny red bells and fluffy white fun fur added to the boots, create a totally festive holiday theme."
