Let a Christmas elf move in with you! The tradition of the “Wichtel door” comes from Scandinavia and has a long-standing history there. Behind the little door lives a tiny elf who comes from the enchanted forest during the Advent season to stay with families and help with Christmas preparations. But be careful — the elf is a nocturnal creature! During the day he sleeps and must never be disturbed behind his door. The elf sets up his home around his door. To create a cozy atmosphere right away, he decorates the door and hangs a garland around it. The pine garland has a practical wire core, making it easy to shape as desired.
