New Gnomes, Woodland Wanderer Sprouts Collection

A new year means a new gnome collection.

Woodland Wanderer gnomes

Toofie Tulip and Sylvie Wonderer Sprouts

I have been honing my felting skills and the wool led me to these little cuties. These are the Woodland Wanderer Sprouts. Meet Sylvie and Toofie Tulip.

These Sprouts nestle into the leaves and stones of the forest floor to sleep during the Winter. At the call of Imboc they begin to grow a sprout on their head. This is very exciting for the forest as this heralds the wakening of the Earth. Throughout the year they will add to the sprout and become a full Woodland Wanderer. Wanderer Sprouts have very unique features to the rest of their clan. They are squat (4-5 inches tall and 6-8 inches around including their feet), have little bare feet and, of course, the bendy sprout on their head.

These first two are available and more will be popping up to join them.
