Very cute! I love making stuff. It's way more fun than buying it. Of course, the problem is that I would really like to sit around and make things all day long. unfortuately, life gets in the way of that.
Look what you all started! ;o)
I bought some new gnomes the other day. I'm a little disappointed because 4 of them are bigger than the scale I am wanting for my mini garden. I'm not sure if I'll keep them or sell them and get others that are the right size. Here they are.
That's a bummer.... what scale are you going for?
Mendy-
Are they the same size as the one I sent you?
Maybe this will give you an excuse to start a second mini garden, lol...
How is that table coming along? Even if you are not done, I'd love to see what you've got going so far :0)
cute gnomes. looks like you'll have to do an additional garden so that they don't get lonely and bored in the box they shipped in. :o)
I don't know what scale it is, but the gnomes I am using are 4" tall. In the picture, the gnomes with the rabbit and mouse are the right size. All the others are 6" tall. They're very cute, but I just don't have room for another mini garden! I have to keep telling myself that, you know. LOL Here are two in the same pic to show the difference.
Here's what my DH has so far on the table. We were at my mom and dad's helping them paint their house this week on my DH's days off, so no time to work on it then. I'm hoping it will be finished next week.
lookin' good!

Thanks!
Those kissing gnomes are too cute!
Your new garden will be adorable.

Hmm, I think the new gnomes will need another garden! I picked up some really cute ones at, of all places, Target! They were on clearance for 1.27$ and have stakes that stick into the ground. I generally like the european gnomes best because I love their faces. These are really good copies.I'll have to take a photo.
Thank you, MsC!
Oh, I wish I had room for another garden! I thought about just putting them out in the front yard, but I know they would get stolen. I'm not sure if I'll have to sell them though....I think DH is kinda attached to a few of them. LOL I think he really likes the sleeping one. We might have to find a special spot for them in the house and just buy new ones for the garden. ;o) I already have my eye on a few of them.
Yes, please post a pic of your gnomes! I would love to see them. I have a two that I bought at Joann's that have the post for sticking them in the ground. They are lost in the garden somewhere right now....they will emerge in the fall and winter. ;o)

I have Creeping Speedwell growing as a weed in my yard! I've started using it as an underplanting for some of my flowers.
Don't have alot, but if anyone wants me to send them some, I'll gladly oblige. I can send it in a Priority bubble envelope or very small box for $4.80. D-mail me if you're interested.
I might have to take you up on your offer. We have been going out of town a lot and I'm afraid my plants are suffering because of it. We are still working on the table for the mini garden, so no planting yet. :o(
