Elf Ears by Williams Syndrome
When Halloween comes, everyone has their own outfit choice; one of the most common is an elf costume. The most distinctive feature of the outfit is the pointed ears, which we will probably have to buy. However, there are other people who don’t have to get plastic pointed ones, as their ears already have the shape.
