Our gnome scene is cute and easy to make. You can let your creativity run free. This cute garden landscape is also perfect for setting the scene for vouchers for a gardening friend, e.g. from a garden centre, or monetary gifts.

This is how you make the great miniature landscape:
Start by priming the plate with craft paint. For our plate, we chose the colour fig.

Paint the fence in white and the door and the rest of the miniatures in your chosen craft colours. Prime the figure cones in skin colour.

For the pixies:

Cut wires for the arms and legs. For the arms approx. 4 cm, for the legs approx. 7 cm. Attach buttons as hands and feet to the ends of the wires using craft glue.

Cut out the hats and clothes from felt and attach them with craft glue.

Glue the lady's hat onto a straw hat and decorate with a bow made from a small strip of felt.

Paint on the faces and sunglasses. Stick the arms and legs into the polystyrene body and fix them with craft glue.

Glue the door and the fence to the plate using hot glue and partially fill the bottom with plate moss and sand. Decorate the landscape with Iceland moss, trees and the miniatures. Pull off individual flowers from the wreath and stick them into the "lawn". Add bark slices as walkway slabs.

Lantern chain:

Shorten round sticks to desired length and glue a wooden ball to each end. Fix to the plate with hot glue. Thread pompoms onto a piece of sewing thread and stretch between the "poles".

Now the finished gnomes can be displayed.
