Friday Finds: Gnomes

Ever since the famous Gnome book first came out in the late 1970's early 1980's I've been fascinated with Gnomes. I would pour over the illustrations in the book, just enamored at all the wonderful little details and loving the tiny little woodland world they lived in.

So today's finds are all about Gnomes!

Little Dear

Aimee Ray has the most wonderful little felt Gnome with embroidery pattern, that's always been a huge favorite of mine.

Irene Gough Prints

This Gnome print is just the cutest, with this Gnome doing his happy little thing with his tiny insect friends.

Debbie's Clay Art

A beautiful clay sculpture of the Gnomes from the book. So well done and a great keepsake piece for a Gnome lover.

Two Mushrooms

Hoop art is awesome and this Gnome themed one would be an adorable gift for a kids room or a Gnome loving adult.

West Wind Home Garden

A Gnome garden Gnome! Seriously who wouldn't want one as a gate keeper for their garden?

Giant Gnome Paper Co

And finally, a set of Gnome greeting cards. Sent them of frame them, just have fun with them!

 Here's my old Gnome that I'm going to be re-designing and making a new diy pattern of for a woodland series to be available this Fall.

If you have any ideas of what you'd like to see in a woodland series, please leave me a comment, I'd love to know!

Hope you enjoyed all the Gnomes! Give these shops some love!

Re-worked the Gnome Pattern

I worked up a Gnome pattern a few weeks ago but I just wasn't sure it was quite right yet so went back to the drawing board (computer) and re-worked him a bit.

He's still not quite there yet. I think a few more small tweaks to the pattern and I'll finally have it but would like any input you may have about it.

Sassy's Friday Finds - Gnomes

I adore Gnomes. I first fell in love with them when the big Gnome book came out in the 80's. Wish I still had that book, don't know what happened to it. I'm working on a Gnome plush pattern myself (check out yesterday's post to see a peek) so it just made sense to make Friday's finds about Gnomes.

As I was looking through photos I realized that I'm a Gnome snob. Yes I really am! I just prefer the traditional red and blue Gnomes to any other kinds. Weird since I'm a think outside of the box kind of person (at least I think I am). So in the interest of variety, fairness and just plain fun I tried to mix up some fun Gnomes of all kinds. Enjoy!

As always you can click on the link below each photo to be taken to that seller's shop.
