We got a pile of these Trick or Treaters on Halloween Clearance. They're what we used to make the elves.

Michele sewed the heads from scratch, around the mount from the Trick or Treaters, so it mounts on the elf's body easily.

One of the finished products. The ears were sewed on, and the nose was glued with a glue gun. Cotton matting was used for the hair, beard and eyebrows. Then some eyes from the craft store were glued on with a glue gun.
