• Cilindro de papelhigiénico.
• Tijera.
• Pega de silicón.
• Saca punta.
• Escuadra.
• Lápiz de grafito.
• Estambre color rosado
• Estambre color blanco.
• Bola de madera color naranja.
• Cartón.

Utilice el cartón de papel higiénico para hacer el gorro del gnomo y marque con la regla 1,5 centímetros y corte obteniendo un aro.

Luego medí un cartón de 16 centímetros de largo por 9 centímetros de ancho, donde voy a enrollar el estambre para el gorro del gnomo que se va a realizar.

Agarra el cartón y con el estambre de color rosado, le das aproximadamente 54 vueltas como se observa en las imágenes.

Se procede a cortar el estambre rosado en uno de los extremos como se observa en la imagen.

Una vez cortado el estambre rosado, se extiende completamente como se observa en la imagen. Se agarra tres hebras de estambre se dobla ,se toma el aro de papel higiénico y el dobles se pasa por dentro del aro.

El extremo suelto del estambre rosado se pasa por donde esta el dedo, y de esa forma se hace el nudo que se sujeta al aro de cartón.

El procedimiento del nudo atado al aro de cartón se repite hasta terminar completamente el estambre.

El extremo suelto del estambre se agarra y se pasa hacia el otro lado del aro como lo hago en las imágenes.

Le coloque al gorro un poquito de guata,también puede ser algodón por debajo y amarre con una hebra de estambre para dar forma al gorro, y le hice un nudo al final para que se pueda guindar, ver las imágenes.

Corte el exceso de hebras del gorro del gnomo, quedando acorde al tamaño del mismo.

Ya casi estoy terminando, le falta hacer la barba al gnomo, utilice tres de mis dedos para dar 30 vueltas aproximadamente alrededor de ellos con estambre color blanco.

Se saca las vueltas de estambre de los dedos, se amarra en el centro y se procede a cortar ambos extremos.

Utilice el peine para que la barba logrará más volumen y quedó de esta manera.

Toca pegar en el gorro del gnomo la barba con silicón, se le coloca pega alrededor del aro y listo.

Y por último le pegue la nariz con silicón, utilice una cuenca que me haga ese efecto, esté es el resultado final. Los ánimo a que lo hagan para que adornen su arbolito.

Gnome for my little tree.

Greetings, community. I have wanted to share this with you for some time, but due to various activities, I have not been able to. I am still busy, but creating and writing revitalises me; it is my space where I can be myself.

So, at this time, I am going to make a craft for you to decorate your tree or give to a friend or family member... Shops and public institutions in my country, Venezuela, have been decorating since the first of October.

Christmas is in December, but in the meantime, you can start thinking about how to decorate your home. December is a month of joy, bright lights and attractive colours. People get excited during this month because there are many activities that promote unity, peace and family bonding.

What I am going to develop is a gnome. It is said that they are dwarves who wear pointed hats and have bushy beards. They are present as guardians who protect families and homes.

They also symbolise prosperity and abundance. During the Christmas season, they accompany Father Christmas to deliver gifts. In short, there are many versions of their roles in tradition, and we must continue to investigate which one is the real one.

Given the above, I suggest you join me to see the process...

• Toilet paper roll.
• Scissors.
• Silicone adhesive.
• Pencil sharpener.
• Set square.
• Graphite pencil.
• Pink yarn.
• White yarn.
• Orange wooden bead.
• Cardboard.

Use the toilet paper roll to make the gnome's hat, and mark 1.5 centimeters with the set square, cut it out and you get a ring.

Then I measured a piece of cardboard 16 centimeters long by 9 centimeters wide, where I will wind the yarn for the gnome's hat that will be made.

Take the cardboard and with the pink yarn, give it approximately 54 turns as shown in the images.

The pink stamen is then cut at one end as shown in the image.

Once the pink yarn has been cut, it is spread out completely as shown in the image. Take three strands of yarn, fold them, take the toilet roll tube and fold it, then pass it through the tube.

The loose end of the pink yarn is passed through where the finger is, and in this way the knot is made that attaches to the cardboard ring.

The loose end of the yarn is grabbed and passed to the other side of the hoop as I do in the pictures.

I added a little bit of wadding to the hat, or cotton underneath, and tied it with a strand of yarn to shape it. I also tied a knot at the end so it could be hung up. See the pictures.

Cut off the excess strands from the gnome's hat, making sure it matches the size of the hat.

I'm almost finished, I just need to make the gnome's beard. I used three of my fingers to wrap approximately 30 times around them with white yarn.

Take the yarn loops off your fingers, tie them in the center, and then cut both ends.

Use the comb to give your beard more volume and it will look like this.

Glue the beard to the gnome's hat with silicone, stick it around the rim, and you're done.

And finally, stick the nose on with silicone, use a basin to create that effect, and this is the final result. I encourage you to make one to decorate your Christmas tree.
