Yes, Gnomes celebrate Holidays too.
And they, just like us, need Christmas Trees.
I have made it my goal to supply them some this holiday season.

Let me talk first about the tall one in the back.
Or better yet, let me show you how I made it!

Supplies: Cone, felt, glue gun, scissors and maybe some tidbits for decorations (I used some brads and tacks).

Cut, cut, cut out your tree leaf thingies.

Glue them, one at a time to the cone, all of them!

Start adding your decorations as you go.

Figure out your topper and decorate.
I decided on decorating a small Styrofoam ball with the brads and tack.

There you have it, the first of many…

A Gnome Christmas Tree!
For those Gnomes who like simple lines…

The Bobble String Christmas Tree!
Yes, it bobbles a bit from the way it is attached to its stand.
And now for those Beachy Gnomes…

The Pearly Shell Gnome Christmas Tree!
I made both the string and shell trees awhile ago…lots of string, shells, glue and patience, and you too can make them.
As you can see from the first photo, there are many other trees.
Some are vintage and some are just darned cute.

I had to have a variety, so many Gnomes so many different trees needed!
And these two are my favorite!

They so remind me of my Italian Grandparent’s Christmas decorations. Under their Aluminum Christmas Tree (Yes, I said Aluminum) they had this tiny outdoor winter skating Scene (a mirror was used to make the frozen pond) with these tiny trees all around it! Ha, but they have sold already…should have put a higher price on them!
I have two more in the making, but not sure they will get finished in time.
Gnomes…I got you covered!
Elves get all the attention during the holidays, give some love to any Gnomes you may know!
EARLY HOLIDAY BONUS CRAFT FOR YOU:

I made the wreath awhile ago, Click here to see how I did it: The Garbage Wreath
But then I put it in an old frame and threw some red felt on the back for that something special and different Christmas decoration!
HAPPY HOLIDAY CRAFTING TO YOU!
