🖍️ Tools For Success
- Paper (Our Free How To Draw Template PDF)
- Pencil
- Polymer Eraser
- Outline Markers
- Coloring Tools (I recommend Crayola’s 140 Piece Coloring Case)
🎨 Parents: The only tools you need to use these how-to-draw tutorials are: an eraser, a pencil, and a piece of paper. But – if you have them around – a sketching pencil makes for fainter and softer lines that help kids build fine motor accuracy. I also recommend going over the sketch pencil with a black outline marker when you’re done for a neater finish. Lastly, erase the pencil marks before adding color.

Step-by-Step Guide on How To Draw an Elf
- Draw a big round face with a collar beneath it. The collar comes with four-pointed and triangular lines on it.
- Next, draw two curved hairlines on top of the face – a short curved line on the right and a longer one on the left.
- Then, draw two long oval-shaped ears on each side of the elf’s face, two round eyes with two smaller round irises inside its face, a smiling curve below, and a triangular hat with a curvy end and a small round pompom at the end.
- Beneath the elf’s collar, draw a rectangular shirt with oval-shaped sleeves on each side, narrowing as they go downwards.
- Also, don’t forget to draw a short horizontal line on each sleeve near the end, forming the elf’s little hands and a small oval-shaped belt metal right beneath the middle of the shirt.
- Below the shirt, enclose the belt metal with long horizontal lines, connect it with inverted trapezoid-like pants with tiny curvy feet below, divided with a long vertical line in the middle, forming a pair of pants and pair of feet.
- Now we can color this elf with Christmas-themed colors – green shirt, pants, and hat, blonde hair, fair skin complexion, red shoes, orange collar and belt leather, blue irises, white outer eyes, pompons, and belt metal.
- You can also create your own color combination for this tiny little elf, depending on how you like it!
