Who doesn’t’ love Christmas  Gnomes or any kind of gnomes for that matter! I found this printable gnome pattern online for free and decided to make a few of them for decorations.  (I can never pass up a good gnome when I see it.) These could be hung up if desired and would make cute ornaments.   I’ve created a pdf version of this gals pattern for ease in printing. Her original pattern and link is also at the bottom of this page. If you like this you’ll love our Gnome in a Cup too! And don’t forget to check out our other little whimsical creatures like our Twigs & Twine Wooden Reindeer or our Christmas Spider and Poem.

Instructions

1. Download and print the gnome pattern on cardstock.
2. Cut out along outside edges.
3. Fold and glue large part together.
4. Fold bottom point parts in and glue blue base on. (I did not use the white base.)

OPTIONAL
1. Glued small puff ball on top of hat. (I clipped a tiny bit off the top of the hat to give me a flatter surface to glue the pom pom onto.)
2. Spread thin glue around the belt buckle and sprinkled glitter on.
3. Cut out paper holly and glue on. Used dots of paint for berries.

NOTES
The bottoms can be a bit rough looking depending on how careful you are. You could also glue trim of some type around the bottom. I just cut out scalloped paper and put around mine though I’ll probably nest them inside some garland as shown.
