A mum played a naughty prank on her partner leading to hilarious consequences .
Natalie Daniels from Kirkby shaved a strip in Thomas Reily's hair, then blamed it on the 'Elf on the Shelf'.
The Christmas toy has become a tradition in many households, encouraging children to behave themselves.
But recently, it's become a way for parents to perform pranks on their family members in the name of elf mischief.
However, Natalie went one step further with her trolling, leaving son Jack, six, and Lillie-Rose, three shocked.
For day 15, Natalie and Tom teamed up as she shaved his hair, while he pretended to be asleep.
She then placed the clippers into the hands of the two elves, framing them for the crime.
Natalie also left a note for Jack and Lillie-Rose reading: "Tell your dad we are sorry. Look at his head haha. Love you. Elfs."
Speaking to the ECHO , Natalie said: "Tom knew I was going to shave it but he didn't know when to expect it.
"I did the shaving, with the help of my little elves.
"[Tom] was shocked but he laughed it off, he's shaved it all off now - he's got no need to wait for ages in the barber now with it being Christmas."
However, Natalie says it was worth it to see the look on her children's faces.
She said: "They laughed their little heads off. It tickled Jack so much. He wouldn't stop going on about it all day.
"He said that was the best thing the elves have done so far."
Natalie has executed a Elf on the Shelf prank everyday of December.
Some of her tamer escapades include pretending the elves defecated on the floor and showing the elves using a bra as a hammock.
