3D model description

If you ever wondered where the Elf on a Shelf came from and how he got into your home then look no further, the recent discovery of the Elf Door would seem to answer that question.

The Elf Door appears to be a portal to the north pole that materialises in your home during the run up to Christmas giving the elf access to update Santa's Naughty and Nice List.

So be good and Merry Christmas

Nice and simple this one, just Glue it all together. I used Super Glue Gel, to try and keep it tidy.

Outer Frame - Glue in the door

slide the pole parts together - glue the poles in the door step
slide on the feet from the top and glue in position
Glue on the caps and back to the outer frame
Glue on the Wreath, handle and hinges.
and you are Done.
