Step-by-Step Directions

Create your own set of gnome food gift jars in under an hour. Customize each Christmas gnome with colorful felt and wood beads.

Step 1: Cut Shapes

Print hat and beard patterns on paper and cut out. Trace beard pattern on the back of faux fur (from $5, Etsy) and cut out. Pin hat pattern on the fold of doubled felt and cut out.

Step 2: Assemble the Jars

Glue the back of the hat together with quick-dry tacky glue ($5, Walmart) and hold the seam until it dries enough to stay together. Hat can also be hand-sewn if desired. Hot-glue the beard to the inside of the front of the hat. Hot-glue the wooden bead onto the beard at the edge of the hat. Set the hat on top of the lidded jar and snug it down.
