Although it seems making homemade gnomes is most popular around the holidays, we thought there’s no better time for gnome crafting than the present.

A Spring-Themed DIY Gnome Ornament

Using soft, muted felt sheet colors, we made a Spring-themed version of these holiday gnome ornaments from a few years ago. Adding a few pretty miniature felt flowers using our felt flower printable patterns was just what this little gnome needed to finish off his hat.

How to Make a Gnome for Spring

Once the no-sew gnone ornament is assembled, glue on the felt flowers and felt leaves. Layer on the pieces starting with the leaves than adding the pretty flowers from the base to the top. Add as many or as few as you like until you’re happy with the look.
