Tips to Make these July 4th Gnome Patterns and Tutorials
- One of the most important foundations for making quality gnomes is starting with quality materials. I’m not saying you can’t use supplies from the Dollar Tree. No, quite the contrary. But, select materials that will make your gnome unique, function together and hold-up to scrutiny. Check out my favorite supplies to grab here.
- Something that helps me plan out making my gnomes and being able to replicate them is my Gnome Maker’s Journal. It’s a quick notebook-style journal to help organize all the gnomes – and make them pop!
- If you have any questions about how to make your first gnome, I have a significant number of tutorials on my DIY gnome tutorials playlist here.
