The gnome fun is continuing on Glued To My Crafts! These big nosed friends are super cute, eye-catching and apparently can be made to fit ANY of the major holidays & seasons. It’s seems to be my new motto in my craft life!

I mean – hello?! I’ve done a Christmas gnome, reindeer gnome, love bug Valentine’s Day gnome, snowman winter gnome, leprechaun gnome Easter bunny gnome and now I’m adding a FINAL summer patriotic version to the blog archives. I think it’s safe to say that today’s patriotic post rounds up the gnome craft series on our website. You should have ONE for every holiday celebration now – hooray! No excuses!

So without further ado, I present to you how can make your own popsicle stick patriotic gnome with your child today. All you need is a few wood craft sticks, patriotic colored paper, flag stickers and school glue to make your own craft stick Uncle Sam gnome creation within minutes.

On that note, I bet you are going to have a blast recreating it and falling in love with your new 4th of July gnome creation! Then make it stand out even more, by snapping a few pictures to share on our Facebook page or tag us on Instagram to see! I can’t wait to see what how you give your gnome Uncle Sam it’s own personality!
