Kreativ-Set XXL Wichtel Weihnachten

Instructions No. 1252
Instructions No. 1252     Difficulty: Beginner  Working time: 30 Minutes
Make funny gnomes as the new eye-catcher of your Christmas decoration. The VBS XXL Creative set Gnome "Christmas" already contains all materials for two XXL Gnome guys, in which even a bottle can be hidden.




And it's that easy:

Which materials do I need for the gnomes?
The gnomes are made of felt using the template provided. The Wichtel craft kit contains Felt in two thicknesses and different colours. Wobbly eyes and Wooden balls are also included in the package. A pair of scissors, a pencil for drawing and a hot glue gun are also needed for only .

How do I make the gnomes?
First you should copy or print the template sheet and cut out the individual figure parts as Stencil . Each figure part can now easily be placed on Felt , transferred with a pencil and then cut out:
Cap, beard, face and hands are cut from the thin Felt sheets provided for this purpose. The gnome body is cut from the sturdy 4 mm Felt sheet The body is glued together in a further step. Now position the cut out felt beard on the upper edge of the body and glue it on. Afterwards also fix the hands, the face and the moustache. Finally the gnomes get their finished face with Wobbly eyes and Wooden balls as nose.

Now form the cap into a pointed bag and glue it together. On the tip a Wooden ball is attached. Finally, some hot glue can be applied inside the cap to make it fit firmly. Alternative: not fixed, the gnome can be used for example as "packaging" for a bottle.

Extra handicraft tip:
Each gnome can be given even more of its own personality with additional diffusers, Gift ribbon, with buttons and other accessories.
