I have a mini tree that I’ll be using for this project. You can easily adjust this to any size tree, in fact, I’ll be showing you our 9-foot tree gnome at the end.

I bought this Santa ornament from Dollar Tree.  I pulled the beard off the ornament for my gnome.  If you can't find an ornament like this you could buy a dollar store mop or use yarn instead.

I bought a stocking at Dollar Tree.  I cut the bottom of the stocking off in a triangle shape to help form my gnome hat.

I turned the stocking inside out and used my hot glue gun to adhere the edges together.  You could sew this step if you prefer.

Once the glue was cool, I turned the hat right side out.  I placed the hat on the top of my small tree.

For our large tree, I wrapped a blanket around the top to become the gnome’s hat. I then added a large dollar store bulb for his nose. I added some oven mittens for his hands and my black boots for his feet. For his beard, I bought a mop, cut it in half, and tied the ends together. I made loops on either end and hung the beard on the tree.
