That old stand-by of kids crafts projects, the toilet paper roll, has found new life as miniature garden gnomes. Although these won’t withstand the first hard rain, they seem like a great project for the little ones with lots of room for customization.
These extra tiny garden gnomes have a modern shape that makes them a breeze to cast out of basic craft store plaster in a simple, homemade mold. You can pop out a whole village of them in an afternoon and let the kids (or yourself!) go to town decorating them.
