Christmas Gnomes make for a fun girls day

A friend of mine found these online somewhere and shared them with me..she actually made a lot of them-a couple different sizes for herself and had friends come and make them with her for themselves also.  Today Kim, Alana and myself made this little family of them that are getting split up and shared with others.  I made the big one for my front step.  Once you get all the supplies gathered up they go together super fast.  There are lots of online tutorials to follow..I kind of blended a few of them.  Mine looks so cute on the step and you can see him from the road.  It's an easy fun Holiday craft to put together and for us, we had the tomato cages already pulled out of a storage shed, the fleece for the hats was from Walmart-blankets that were $2.50 each, a couple packs of floral wire, some mittens from the dollar store and his nose was an old knee high nylon stuffed with stuffing I already had here. You can be creative and do whatever you want with them.  some people used real potatoes for the nose and tied yarn for the braided beard etc.  anything goes.
