Flexi Goofy Grin Elf - (Archived)

🎄 Holiday Final Drop! 🎄
The Flexi Elf, complete with his Display Box, is now officially ready to download!

This cheerful little helper prints fully in place with no supports, works great in both single-color and multicolor versions, and brings smooth, satisfying flexi movement to your holiday collection.

I hope you still have time to bring this design to life for your craft shows, I tried my best not to be too late with this final Christmas release. 🌟
Next, we’ll be moving back to regular designs as we continue our Kennel series, along with many more adorable creations on the way!

Thank you so much for your continued support, I truly hope you enjoyed all the Christmas designs released this month. ❤️

🎁 Magnet & Keychain Versions Included
Perfect for gifting, decorating your fridge, or adding a festive touch to your bag or keys, both versions come included. 💛

✨ Quick tips:

• Scale the keychain version down to 70% for the perfect size, 100% may feel a bit large.

• If you resize the magnet version in the 3MF, don’t forget to adjust the negative cylinder (magnet slot) accordingly. 🧲

✨ Display Box Set
You’ll also get a magnet-ready display box designed to hold the Elf and all his tiny props. Multiple box and lid variations are included so you can choose the look that fits your setup best.

⚠️Note:
I’ve tested the Transparent Sheet Lid version and found the most optimized method to make it work. While the final result looks good, it requires a lot of manual effort, precise handling, and can get a bit messy with glue.
Because of this, I don’t actually recommend using the transparent version unless you’re comfortable with extra manual work.

However, I’ve still included the file in case you want to try it. If you choose the transparent option, please handle it with care, as it involves manually trimming the sheet to fit.
The creator is not liable for any damage.

For the best and easiest experience, I strongly recommend using the print-in-place box lid instead.

Transparent Sheet Material I used:

🔧 Tip for the transparent Lid:
A built-in groove guides your trimming. Apply glue along the inner border of the lid, place the sheet, and carefully cut the excess by following the groove.
