1. Transforming the Base
Place the first Santa hat at the base of the Tide Pod container.
2. Adding the Top Hat
Take the second Santa hat and stretch it over the top of the pod container, ensuring it covers the bottom hat. Secure it in place by applying hot glue to attach the hat firmly to the container.
3. Gnome Beard
To create the gnome's iconic beard, grab some faux fur or a mop as an alternative.
Apply hot glue generously to the top hat and stick the mop piece on top, allowing it to cascade down like a fluffy white beard.
4. End With a Nose
Place the mini ornament underneath the top hat and add some hot glue to secure it in place.

Cute, but I am not a fan of gnomes. They to me, are what clowns are to some..Don't ask me why...But good use for the containers if you have them ...could also be used as a planter? MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL 🎄 🎀 AND LEST WE FORGET THANKSGIVING!! 💩 🦃
