Cut a strip of felt fabric with a jagged edge and use craft glue or a needle and thread to attach it to the ankles of a pair of ankle-high slippers. Sew or glue a jingle bell onto the toe section of each slipper.
Put on the turtleneck as your elf tunic with coloured tights underneath. Add a rope or ribbon tied around the waist for a belt and then put your vest on top. Finish the outfit with your jingle elf slippers and a Santa style hat.
