Victoria Beckham has shared a hilarious video of husband David placing a toy elf inside a coffee cup as the couple prepared for Christmas on Monday.
The fashion designer, 50, captured former Manchester United and England ace David, 49, as he attempted to fill their home with festive decorations.
'Where is the elf going?' she is heard asking her husband as he proceeded to give the toy an unlikely home inside a coffee mug, next to their Nespresso coffee machine.
Captioning the Instagram post, Victoria wrote: 'I promise... no alcohol.'
It comes after Geri Horner reportedly 'derailed a lucrative Spice Girls deal' - that would have netted all five members £1million each.
According to The Sun, Geri, Mel B, Mel C, Victoria and Emma Bunton were all approached about a drama series that came with a seven-figure payday.

Insiders have claimed talks were going well until Geri decided to back out of her involvement in the project.
A source said: 'It would have seen five actresses taking on the roles of Posh, Ginger, Scary, Sporty and Baby.
'The venture would have landed them all pay deals of around £1million for essentially not lifting a finger.
'But as the negotiations ramped up, the others were told Geri had objected. The plans have basically been thrown out.'
The insider added that, without the agreement of Geri, it will be difficult to make the project happen.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for all five Spice Girls for comment.
It comes after Geri was also said to have pulled the plug on plans for a new Spice Girls reunion tour - after her feud with Mel B turned increasingly ugly.
The group had been in discussions about another run of dates and had even made contact with Victoria Beckham about a possible cameo appearance - with the band excited about replicating the success of their last shows.

But insiders say a bitter rift between the pair - who were once so close they allegedly engaged in a fleeting romance - has now driven a wedge between the group and Geri has now walked away entirely.
A source told MailOnline: 'Geri has had enough to deal with after all the drama with her husband's relationship with his assistant - it has been a tough enough time - and she's just lost patience with Mel and her little digs and jibes.
'She's walked away and without Geri it's really not going to happen - in the past she's been a driving force in the group, but she doesn't want to deal with Mel at all at the moment let alone share a stage with her.'
Mel made jibes at her former friend by wishing her a 'Happy 75th Birthday' online alongside a series of unflattering photographs from their heyday, seemingly a reference to her previous jibes that Geri had lied about her age in the past.
Insiders say there have been many more digs and jibes behind the scenes which have infuriated Geri - who has had a tough six months amid allegations of her Formula One chief husband Christian Horner's inappropriate behaviour with a female assistant.
The source added: 'They've always had a tricky relationship but this has got very messy now and nobody has been able to smooth things over between them - so it's all off again.'
Mel B's representative declined to comment.
It's the latest in a series of rows after their 'frosty' reunion at Victoria's 50th birthday bash in April.

The star-studded soiree saw all five of the Spice Girls come together to party but it was claimed Mel and Geri's greeting was tense.
Despite having posed for a smiley snap with Victoria, Mel C and Emma Bunton, The Sun claimed Mel and Geri were feeling tense.
The Mail previously revealed that the former girlband plans to mark their 30th anniversary with a documentary had fallen apart.
After the Netflix Beckham documentary, made by David's TV company, was such a success last year, the Spice Girls started to talk to the streamer about possibly making a similar all-access show about the group and their phenomenal success.
It was to feature lengthy interviews with all of the 'girls' and their families, talking about their experiences of fame and of life since their pop heyday.
The idea was to tie the documentary to the 30th anniversary of the group being founded in 1994.
However, although Victoria, Mel B, Mel C and Emma were all keen on the doc, after a number of meetings Geri was still against the idea and they were not able to talk her round.
This disagreement — certainly not the first in the group — created a little bit of frost between Ginger and the other girls, reported Alison Boshoff.

Some believe Geri wasn't keen on the scrutiny due to the looming scandal over her husband Christian Horner, whose role at F1 team Red Bull appeared to be in peril after an employee alleged he had harassed her.
Christian was cleared in March after an inquiry, with the complainant launching an appeal that was subsequently thrown out in August, exonerating the Red Bull boss for a second time.
A statement from Red Bull confirmed: ‘The complainant exercised the right to appeal, and the appeal was carried by another independent KC. All stages of the appeal process have now been concluded , with the final outcome that the appeal is not upheld.
‘The KC’s conclusions have been accepted and adopted by Red Bull. The internal process has concluded.’
A source said: 'It might have been awkward for Geri to get out there and talk about Girl Power in these circumstances surrounding Christian but in truth even before it all came out she wasn't keen on revisiting those days. She just didn't want to go over all the fun, wild times that they had.'
