DIY Christmas Gnomes
Back to our fabulous diy Christmas gnomes! You must have seen them in Scandinavian Christmas decor collections: a cute little creature with a long white beard and usually a red knit hat. They are called tomte in Sweden, tonttu in Finnland, nisse in Norway and Danemark, and associated with the winter solstice and the Christmas season. I love Nordic inspired crafts – including these delightful Christmas gnomes! They would make a great addition to almost any holiday decor. I hope this post will inspire you to make some DIY Nordic Christmas gnomes.
