Material list
Create decorative works of art from casting compound. The ArteBianco casting compound is weather and frost resistant and therefore ideal for outdoor objects. Our cute gnome gang is a great eye-catcher!

Mix approx. 3 tablespoons of ArteBianco casting compound with water according to the instructions on the pack to make a creamy mixture and pour it into the gnome mould. After approx. 8 hours drying time, you can slowly remove the gnome from the mould. Leave the mould to dry for approx. 28 hours.

For the gnome with the golden hat: Apply the paste-like gold leaf priming milk with a brush and leave to dry until transparent. This takes approx. 20 minutes. Now apply leaf metal and press it on carefully with the synthetic brush.

You can wipe off any excess leaf metal with a soft brush after application. Leave to dry for 24 hours and paint the other gnome hats with craft paint in the colour of your choice.

Tip: Collect the leaf metal on a surface, it can be used again later!
