The Recycled Gnome

By: Hjelmen, Lynn

Finally, a book on how to make gnomes! Are you interested in learning how to make Tomtes, unique Scandinavian gnomes, from recycled sweaters? The Recycled Gnome is a book that shares the history of the Swedish Tomte as well as step by step instructions with hundreds of photos to make a variety of gnomes from up cycled materials. The gnomes are 12" tall, made with minimal sewing, wired and hot glued together. Directions include adding a unique, simple base that makes these gnomes sturdy and different from other handcrafted gnomes. These gnomes have been a sellout at craft fairs. Make gnomes with materials you probably already have: cardboard, sweaters, pillows and sheets. Once you make one, you will be hooked!
