These Spring wood gnomes are so elegant and beyond easy. Use a Dollar Tree craft supply to make these in a fun floral, a Buffalo check, glitter, rainbow, and other styles and colors!
– Wood Triangle – Dollar Tree vinyl – Mongolian Fur – 1 inch wood balls – White chalk or acrylic paint
– Sanding Block or Paper – Paintbrush – Scissors – Hot Glue Gun and Glue Sticks – Pencil or Pen for Tracing – Optional, Card or Scraper to Press Vinyl
Cut and sand the wood blocks. Paint all blocks white. Painting the wood first really helps the colors in the vinyl to pop and I recommend not skipping this step.
Trace the blocks onto the back of the Dollar Tree vinyl. Cut the vinyl out, leaving a very small allowance beyond the trace line.
Apply the vinyl to the front of the block. Repeat for all front and backs, as desired. Roll the edges of the vinyl overhang down over the edges of the wood block.
Measure and cut the beard from the Mongolian fur to your desired width and height. Optional, cut a mustache. Adhere the beard and mustache to the front of the gnome with hot glue.
Split the fur at the mustache’s center all the way to the fabric, add glue, and press in the wood ball nose. Enjoy your new gnomes!
