About this idea
The elf has taken over the bedroom desk overnight, crafting a tiny vision board pinned to a square of cardboard. Cut-out magazine words like 'DREAM BIG', 'ADVENTURE AWAITS', and 'YOU GOT THIS' are glued on alongside mini drawings of stars, mountains, and a rocket. A handwritten note reads: 'I asked Santa what your best year looks like — here's what he said. Your turn to make one.' Lay out spare magazines, scissors, and a glue stick as a morning invitation.
What you'll need
- Cardboard square (around 12x12 inches)
- Magazines or printed images
