Once upon a time there were two dwarves who lived in a small paper mache cup and felt especially comfortable on your windowsill or chest of drawers. They are a wonderful decoration for Christmas time and also a great gift idea as well as presents for your loved ones.

So the cup is made with gnomes:
Paint the paper mache cup with gold-coloured Handicraft paint. paint Fill the inside of the cup with Flower arrangement foam

Now paint the clothespins as you like with In Handicraft paint. our example we have chosen a green-white and red-white robe

Download the templates and transfer them to the Felt. Cut out the caps. Tip: It is best to work wire into the caps so that they can be bent Lace later. Glue the caps of the gnomes together with hot glue and stick them on the head of the gnomes. Now glue the wooden bead for the nose and the clamp. Place the finished gnomes in the cup

Then paint a bamboo skewer gold-coloured. For the large cap, first wrap the wire around the bamboo skewer and then glue the wire from the tip of the cap to about the middle of the cap. Now glue the cap at the sides. Ribbon Decorate with Jingles and velvet and place in the cup

You can now decorate the cup with moss, twigs and berries.
