FUN and EASY! How to Make a Sock Gnome!

[@theREmissionary]

I've just in the last few days gotten interested in learning to make gnomes, and already it has become an addiction for me! LOL This is the second video I've seen of someone adding string along with the rubber bands. It's the FIRST one I've seen do the nose this way. I like it! Now I gotta try it.

[@cynthiaroberts2960]

For your first video you did a great job! Thank you for sharing your adorable gnomes 🎉

[@mariewinterhalter9058]

I enjoyed your calm and relaxed way of presenting your cute little Gnomes. Thank You

[@maryblaylock6545]

Thank you also for showing the many ways you can dress your gnome. Very clear directions.

[@LisasCreationsofLove]

Just a tip, I think it's easier to add the rice to the uncut sock first, then put the rubber band on, then cut the top off where you need it. We love these!! A friend of mine and I are both gnome crazy!!!

[@slickcowgirl43]

I do the same, much easier.

[@mamadeeprice1548]

For someone who has never done this, all of these tips are amazing! Thank you!

[@marikiemarie7622]

Just use a cup.

[@donreid2439]

Great idea 👍👍👍

[@Grandmarie53]

What a wonderful video. You were clear and precise, explained everything so well!❤ and these gnomes are sooo cute! Thank you!!

[@lindseyf8505]

If you had not told us this was your first video, I would have thought you had been doing this for years. Great job!

[@deloresmc2659]

Colorful little guy!!! love his 🎩...HE'S GREAT

[@denisekeeth4595]

Do not understand why anyone would give this a thumbs down, you did a great job. For a first time tutorial it was clear and concise...........well done.

[@maureenmcglynn3777]

I collect Gnomes and look forward to making these. I'm disabled, 80yrs.old in a few months, so will have lots to do. Thank you so much.

[@MMacAttack]

@maureen did you make any gnomes?

[@Kittyfantastic]

These gnomes are precious!!! They are expensive to buy at stores, who knew they were so easy to make and customize!! ❤️

[@deeneedler327]

Put your sock in a glass to fill with rice........so much easier!

[@debbieguthrie9877]

These are the best-looking sock gnomes I have seen and believe me I have seen many! Thanks for sharing.

[@sharonb.7867]

And you are left-handed! Wonderful creativity flowing from us lefties! LOL

[@glenda6607]

I am heading to Hobby Lobby,Michaels,and the Dollar Tree to get some supplies.Can't wait to make these adorable gnomes!Thank you!

[@tenderfootvillage]

Have fun!

[@carolleakenney1341]

Seen lots of gnomes handmade and I love some of them...but yours are so gorgeous and look store bought. You did an amazing job on the gnome and the tutorial WOW... I love gnomes that are not tacky like alot of diy ones are. Yours are fantastic Thank you for doing this and thank you because now I can finally stop searching for a decent tutorial.

[@tarareed5295]

I agree!!! I've never seen them, and wanted to make them for myself. Hers are fantastic!

[@HeatherForrester1]

These are absolutely adorable! Thank you so much for sharing and making it so clear on how to make these little guys 🤗

[@cutsiename]

Very cute! Great process video. Who thumbs down a Gnome? Very Grinchy:( Love the Gnome who looks like he has a mustache.

[@lem4100]

What a clever idea incorporating the nose into the sock. Better than having to make a separate nose & attach it. THese are the cutes gnomes I've seen on youtube.

[@tenderfootvillage]

lem4100 thank you! ❤️

[@ginawells8230]

GOOD VIDEO WITH NO MUSIC LOUD IN MY EARS.THANK YOU.SEEN THIS BE FOR AND ENJOYED WATCHING IT AGAIN.🇨🇦❤️xoxo

[@diannethayer4585]

Always looking for ideas for seniors . With a little preparation (some precutting), this is perfect! Excellent presentation!

[@tenderfootvillage]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@CrickyMoose]

I was thinking of making a spring gnome with flowers and a lighter theme color wise ! So excited now thanks to this tutorial- thank you!!

[@MrPeteA]

Thank you for the vid...you made it so simple...and cost effective...looking to have a bunch of inmates make these and donate to the elderly that are in homes for the holidays!

[@michelleangello8083]

This Lil guy is sooo cute! Thanks for sharing this video and you did a great job of explaining!!!! 😊

[@MsPepper0421]

I watched your video and believe I can make one! Your instructions are easy to understand. Thank you so much!!

[@mollyfien]

I found the small party hats in the cone shape work great too at the $1 store.

[@KatarinaS.]

Used TP rolls or paper towel rolls cut in half would work well too, and are totally free. Could stuff them with old paper if needed.

[@lindadagley5822]

This is a great idea ..thanks so much ..

[@missgoldie6257]

You are a fantastic teacher! You explain WHY you do what you do and you show it. These are darling and I'm going to get on it! Merry Ho Ho Ho to your house, from ours, with gratitude.

[@elizabethhamilton4678]

Really cute. Going to make some of these for next year. This year I did snowmen. A little tip... a lint roller is great for getting any bits of Styrofoam, fur and hot glue strings off of your table and off of the craft you're making.

[@Duke-Orgulje]

These little guys look adorable! I’d like one, they’d look so cute on my shelf.

[@nancyruegsegger4259]

Fill with unpopped corn, add whole cloves and chunks of cinnamon stick for a Christmas scent.

[@christysdeals4u]

We live in the country so non-food inside is best for us!

[@louisecox9641]

Add crushed bay leaves. Keeps bugs away

[@christysdeals4u]

@@louisecox9641 👍👍

[@tinagagne3186]

I just love them . You explained it very well. I can't wait to make them for our Christmas church fair. Thank you for sharing.

[@Skooterbird]

This tutorial was great..One of the best and well explained steps in making them...Thank you very much.....Pat

[@genevievesaunders4245]

This is really good. At least you show that you make mistakes. Helps the stress lol. I've not seen anyone NOT glue the nose. I may have to try that. Thanks again, keep up the good work!

[@dell4277]

THAT WAS REALLY GOOD TUTORIAL..REALLY CLEARLY EXPLAINED..THE GNOMES ARE SSSOOO CUTE..TY

[@amyjo1293]

Thank you for the caption. I just bought the materials and will make them soon. Love it.

[@jaylineff]

I think you did a fantastic first-time video tutorial. Keep them coming. These little guys are adorable.

[@hollyhasegawa4240]

OMG! I love this little gnome, I'm going to make one of my own. So glad I found your tutorial, there are so many different things you can add to him to just make him even more adorable! Thank you this is awesome.

[@crazyldy002]

I sure wish you would make more videos, they are soo awesome please consider it and love the way you put in the closed captions

[@chachadodds5860]

How CUTE!! you decorated these. I swe this last year a bit too late on another channel, but I'm so glad I checked for new ones, & found yours. Thanks for sharing your creativity & ideas. So inspiring. I'm goin' to the Dollar Store.

[@AL-il5uw]

Those are adorable! I love the guy who kind of has a mustache hanging down...like brown color fur. Thank you for explaining everything so well. 😊

[@sharonb.7867]

Your video is awesome! I had a little thought- when you tried the embroidery thread around the nose (leave the tails at the bottom) you could take a large eyed needle and run the thread through the nose. Where the nose hole would be on the bottom of each side - thread the needle up to the top of the nose and tie it off. It would create little nose holes. Wow that was hard to explain in words! Again you created a fantastic video!!

[@sherrihammack5403]

I love the Gnomes! Great video! Who knew they are so easy!! Great video!

[@loisweimer6832]

You did really well. Thanks for sharing... They are adorable!

[@elainec.4398]

[@donnabryson7002]

Thank you for your video I would never have known this was your first video you are a pro.

[@patcollins2393]

Great job. I think moving this along pretty quickly (which you did) is the secret to a successful UTube video. You came across as a pro, not a first-timer.

[@valeriedeboom5745]

Does not look like you're a first-timer great job I think grandchildren would love to make these safe for them to do as well

[@judylewis476]
