Piece together a gnome by layering colors of vinyl on a wood ornament. Gnome's images may vary.

In this hands-on program, participants will use precut vinyl pieces to build and layer a festive gnome design on a wooden ornament. Each vinyl element is thoughtfully prepared to make the process smooth and enjoyable—just peel, place, and press!
Whether you're a seasoned crafter or just looking for a fun way to spend an afternoon, this workshop is perfect for all skill levels. You'll leave with a charming handmade ornament ready to brighten your home or gift to someone special.

Let’s get crafty and bring these little gnomes to life—one layer at a time!
