so.. I MADE A GIANT 5FT LIFESIZE GNOME! HERE'S HOW TO DIY!

#diy #diycrafts #christmasdecor
WOW! I've taken on a unique and whimsy project, and in this tutorial, I'll show you how you can make a big giant life-size 5ft gnome yourself! It's really high end and makes the perfect Christmas and winter decor, but you can also make this as a handmade gift, or to sell at a craft fair / etsy!
I made this gnome using all poundland supplies - other than the material & cement! You can definitely use similar dollar tree items. I hope you enjoy this hack and craft idea! What shall we call this gonk? :D I've made him in a rustic farmhouse style, but you can style it according to your home decor or decorations.
I'd love if you can share this video! 😌😊
Happy watching and crafting!

Liyana! This gonk/gnome is MAGNIFICENT! I love him! You are sooo clever and imaginative! I am so pleased that I discovered your channel and also to discover that you live in the UK as I do 👍👍👍 meaning that you use your crafting skills on items bought from Poundland and Home Bargains etc - so handy for me!!! If your chappie is a gonk, I would call him Godfrey 😄 and if he is a gnome, I would call him Norman 😁😁😁 I really MUST make one of these, he is adorable! Again, many thanks for sharing! 🥰🥰🥰 Ann x

Your Gnome is cute Liyana 💖 (don't tell anyone but he's taller that me 😊). You ae so creative and I bet you had a lot of fun creating him. I guess you have a new member of your household since the cats approve. Now you can dress him up for different seasons and holidays. Great video!

I'm a small one too don't worry! I'm 5ft2 and a half lol 😆 always have to count the half 😂 That's so true didn't think of that, changing him up for seasons / holidays. Great idea 😘😘
