Make your own Gnome – WORKSHOP at 10419 Fawcett St – Kensington, MD

Let your imagination run wild as you create a one-of-a-kind gnome using upcycled materials such as sweaters, ornaments, coasters, and more!

This workshop is perfect for ages 10-99. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. You will get step-by-step guidance, so no experience is needed! Please arrive by 6:00pm.

All tools and materials will be provided. Your gnome will be about 10-15” tall and will include:

• Body and hat made out of colorful upcycled sweaters or blankets
• Large nose made out of upcycled ornaments
• Sturdy base made from upcycled lids and coasters
• Beard or braids made out of thick yarn
