Decorative paper gnomes

Print out the templates, cut them out and transfer them to the feltthe foam sheets and on the Paper. (Template A / beard + hands = felt, Template B / feet = foam sheets, Template C / hat + arms = construction paper) Cut out all parts.

Cut eight 1 cm wide strips using the VBS contour cutter. Use the VBS hole punch to punch holes in the center and on the right and left edges. Before you punch, protect your workplace with a handicraft mat. Take the plug wire, cut it in half with the side cutter and bend one end into an eyelet so that nothing can slip down. Also make a hole in the foam sheets feet and pull them over the plug wire. Then insert the paper strips over the center of the wire. Place them evenly next to each other to form a circle. Fix them in the middle with some handicraft glue. Now thread approx. 11 wooden beads onto the wire. Now take the ends of the paper strips and put them over the wire. Again, fix them in place with a little handicraft glue. When all the strips are on the wire, thread another wooden bead onto the end and fix it in place with glue. Glue the head to the protruding wire.

Outline the hat and the arms with a black marker and add accents as desired. Glue the hat and beard together. Then glue the wooden platine on as a nose.

Glue the felt-hands to the arms and stick them to the side of the paper ball. To make the gnomes look even more autumnal, you can stick a piece of grit to their hands.

The number and width of the strips can be varied as desired.
