A Clan of Gnomes.
We caught a glimpse of a family of gnomes in our garden early this morning. Luckily, I had my camera and was quick enough to take a few photos.
When they spied us looking at them, to our surprise, they didn't scurry away. Instead they giggled and posed for photos!
We loved the grandfather with his round belly and the grandmother with her hair in a bun.

This couple had two children. The children were being very mischievous and would only stand still for one photo,
the rest of the time they played wildly in the nasturtiums .
So, gnomes are what I've been needle felting, madly. Many, many gnomes!

About Me
- themagiconions
- Mom of two sunbursts of joy; K, my precious kitten, 7. I love her curly brown hair, the freedom of her imagination and her deep, sweet innocence. T is 4. He is my blond, blue-eyed bear. He makes me laugh. Wife to A Good Man. He is my love, my very best friend and the one who keeps me grounded (I tend to go off with the fairies now and then). I am consciously trying to be mindful of each and every moment; embrace life with love, laughter and learning and give freely knowing that what I have is considerable. Also, trying show my kids the beauty of nature in our concrete jungle; enter Waldorf, my newfound passion!

A clan, indeed! What great little gnomes! You did a fantastic job.
OK, these are just amazing! You've inspired me to felt some gnomes today.
You are truly amazing! I would live in a nasturtium patch as well! I love the grandfather's round bottom!
Aha! My next project has been found! Thank your for the inspiration. Some new gnomes will look great on our nature table. :)
Ok lady, you need to post your Etsy shop in a larger way! I appreciate the humble attitude, but you are an incredible artist and need to share the love! :) It took me a while to find the button. I hope to be purchasing soon when the bank account allows it!
LOL, Lisa... humble by accident... clearly marketing isn't my strong suite. I'll work on making it more visible. Really giggling at myself for finding your comment so funny, tickled me pink!
Thanks for the comments ladies... wonderful to be inspiring the inspirational!
How lucky you were to encounter such a playful lot of gnomes in your garden....
They are beautiful!
Such a cute little clan indeed!
You are very talented, my dear. :) Can't wait to see what you come up with next!
They're so cute! They remind me of the little family from the book Children of the Forest.
These little forest folk are gorgeous ... LOVE them!
