I need a little elf from my friends.

Witchie

Wondering if anyone has or knows where I could get a big cardboard cut out of an elf, preferably Buddy the Elf but any really would do.

Need it urgently and can collect in Dublin on Wednesday. Thanks!

If you were elf-sufficient, you wouldn't be in this mess...

Just get the highest resolution photo of an elf you can find online, stick it on a memory card and get it printed onto cardboard by a printing company that do that kind of stuff for offices and the like. Nearly sure Reads do it as they do all sorts of large cardboard advertising stands.

Dave!

10/10 for thread title

In fact, great thread

I have photoshopped my sister's face onto buddy the elf so might just get it printed onto a large sheet of paper instead. Its just to embarras her at airport on wed night!

That's all cardboard cut outs are though. They are posters stuck to cardboard.

If you can find some cardboard that size, just get a little wallpaper paste and join 'em.

Reads is the place for large print outs also (and maybe even the complete thing).

It'll probably look shyte though. A typical photo isn't going to be much bigger than an A4 and once you stretch that up to large cut out size it's going to look like a pixelated pile of crap.

Plenty of print companies could print out a A0 sized elf but your looking at about €90 for something that size.

I know a friend who has one, however it is missing the right side below the knee and the left side below the hip. In fact it's pretty much Legolas.

Do not under any circumstances quit the day job.

That's why I said earlier to get as high a resolution as possible.

Shouldn't be much bother getting high res elf shots online these days.

Something like this would blow up quite well.

But yeah, it s expensive to get it done professionally.

I have 300 life size election posters of Willie O' Dea. Any good?
