Download the gnome template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.
Begin by gluing the eyes in the middle of the face, one on each side.
Glue the face piece to the front of the beard, just above the mouth.
Next, glue the nose in the middle of the face, in between the eyes and the mouth.
Place the acorn hat on the top of the gnome's head and glue it in place.
Take the completed gnome head and glue it to the top of the gnome's body.
Glue the feet on the bottom of the gnome's body.
Next, glue the leaf in the middle of the gnome's body. Optionally, use a brown marker to draw the stem at the base of the leaf.
Finish up by gluing the hands on both sides of the leaf, so it looks like the gnome is holding the leaf.
