Gnome Xmas Ornaments

Gnome xmas ornaments are the perfect addition to any farmhouse holiday decor. They add a hint of whimsy and charm to your tree or mantel, and can also make a thoughtful gift for friends and family members.

These sweet gnome ornaments are easy to make and look great hanging on the tree or placed on the mantel for an elf-like presence all season long! They’re a fun DIY project that’s easy to make for the whole family, and you can even customize them with different facial features like a scarf or curly beard.

1. Build the hat

To build the gnome hat, you’ll need two pieces of felt cut into triangle shapes. The size of the triangles will depend on how large you want your hat to be. You’ll want to create a larger triangle than you need for the hat so that you can fold it inside out later.

2. Paint and glue the hat

To paint the gnome hat, you’ll use white craft paint and hot glue. To keep it looking as authentic as possible, you’ll need to apply a layer of glue before painting, so that the paint stays put.

3. Use the twine to hang it

To hang this gnome hat, you’ll be using a loop of baker’s twine. First, drill a hole at the top of the hat where you’d like to hang it. You’ll need to do this slightly off-center so that you can fit the twine through.

4. Glue the twine to the back of the hat

To glue the twine to the back of the gnome hat, you’ll want to use a glue gun. Once the glue is dry, you can pull it through the top of the hat to secure it.

5. Use a pom pom for the beard

To make the gnome hat beard, you’ll need to make a yarn pom pom. You’ll need to wrap the yarn around your hand and then tie it into a knot. Repeat until you’ve made a nice, thick pom pom.

6. Glue the twine to the back side of the hat

To attach the twine to the back side of the ornament, you’ll need to use a glue gun. Once the hot glue is dry, you can pull it through to secure it.

7. Using a wood bead as the nose

To make the gnome’s nose, you’ll need to paint and glue a wooden bead. Once the bead is dry, you can place it in the center of the gnome’s nose for added detail.
