Once finished, hang it on the tree as an ornament or attach it to a Christmas gift for a special touch. The possibilities are endless but the memories you create crafting these characters together will last forever.
Craft Supplies:

- Stapler
- Brown Cardstock Paper

- String, Twine or Ribbon
Check out our AMAZON storefront for supplies!
Directions:
- First things first – grab ONE coffee filter per gnome craft.
- Flatten it out with your hands.
- Now fold it in half like a taco and secure it with ONE staple, right in the center, so it won’t come apart.
- Next grab your two pieces of paper {scrapbook and brown} along with the scissors.
- Cut out a large triangle for your gnome’s hat and an oval shape for his nose.
- We are ready to assemble now! Start off by stapling on the hat, then the nose. You want the coffee filter to look like his beard.
- The final step is to hole punch a hole in the top of the triangle hat and add the string.
- At this point in time, you can add any other embellishments you see fit.
- And that’s it! When you are ready, display your Coffee Filter Gnome Ornament for all to see!
- If displaying on the tree is not your thing, you can also skip the hole punch step and add tape for displaying on your window instead!
