DIY idea: Mrs. Gnome made from a milk jug and an old sweater 🤍🎄
What you need: an empty 1-gallon milk jug, about 2 cups of sand, a funnel, fresh or faux pine branches, battery fairy lights, an old cream cable-knit sweater, light wool yarn, a pink pom-pom, thin pink ribbon, a 1-inch wooden bead, hot glue.
How to make it:
1. Pour the sand into the jug through a funnel so it stands steady.
2. Hot glue pine branches all around from the bottom up, tips pointing down.
3. Weave the fairy lights through the pine, battery pack at the back.
4. Glue on the wooden bead nose and two yarn braids tied with pink bows.
5. Cut off a sweater sleeve, tie the cut end, add the pom-pom and pull it over the top as the hat.
