I just wanted to drop in quick today and share colorful and creative homemade craft, a 4th of July Gnomes DIY.
Before you know it, it will be Independence Day in the United States, so do you know my good friend Ruth is back at her gnome endeavors!
These patriotic gnomes are some of her most popular.

Project Supplies
Ruth finds many of her props at stores such as Hobby Lobby, JoAnn Fabrics, and the Dollar Store.
Be sure to check the clearance sections too.
She buys fabric and also recycled sweaters at thrift stores for the arms and bodies of the gnomes. For more ideas, click HERE.

Felt, ribbon, and buttons are plentiful in most craft stores and are always excellent materials to create your custom decorations.

Remember, you can pull decorations apart and use smaller parts and trinkets to outfit many gnomes at once.
Some of the stars and decor she used here were part of a headband or larger novelty.

Ruth finds patches and other decorative touches that are sometimes sold in sets on sites such as Etsy or Amazon.
