Sharon Ojala of ‘Where the Gnomes Live’ is my crafting idol. She inspires me and thousands of others everyday – for free! Her simple construction method is cardboard boxes, Al-foil, paper kitchen towels and PVA glue, paint etc. Her tutorials are so easy to follow too.
The first project I tried was a gnome home which my little granddaughter absolutely loved.
On her birthday I was inspired by Sharon again for her Halloween party.
And yesterday I delivered my latest effort – a tunnel which grew into a mountain complete with cave and waterfall for my 5 year old grandson.
Now the oldest grandchild has ordered a Christmas Village… So thank you Sharon, from the bottom of my heart. My grandchildren are all very happy because of you.

Wow, very impressive! I can see why your grandchildren would love to receive those projects as gifts.

Reblogged this on Perth Words… exploring possibilities. and commented:
I completed the Christmas Village just in time for last Christmas, now I have an order for a new project for my grandson, who still plays with his mountain every day!
