Gnome Duo Workshop
16 December, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
£25.00Event: Gnome Duo Workshop
Date: Saturday 16th Dec 2023
Time: 10-12pm
Cost: £25 to include materials & tuition to create two cute hung gnomes to take home. Hot drinks and a selection of scones can be purchased as optional extras on the day if you choose.
Minimum age: 13 years upwards
Format: Using both recycled materials as well as wool roving, yarn and embellishments, you will be shown how to make your own gnome or tomte duo to proudly hang (or gift if you can bear to part with them!) this festive season.
These are often referred to as ‘tomte’s’ in Norway and were considered to be the very first inhabitant of the farm and helped care for the farm animals and welfare of the land. The Tomte was an honest fellow. He has been depicted as a very small person with a long beard and dressed as a farmer. Whilst ours might not be farmers, we believe they are symbols of good luck and fortune!
So, who would this suit? This is the perfect fun get together with partner, friends, work colleagues and family. However, if you choose to come on your own, then this is very much a communal activity where we gather around the table and create as a group so you’ll definitely feel right at home.
