Handprint Gnome Christmas Ornament Craft
When it comes to super cute handmade Christmas ornaments, I’m pretty sure this Handprint Gnome Christmas Ornament Craft takes the cake. They’re so easy to make, too, you can make a whole bunch to fill your tree.
Give your Christmas tree a hand this year with the cutest Christmas gnomes. We made ours in typical Christmas colors of green and red, but you can try blue and red or white and red for more of a Santa gnome look. All would be super cute!
We also had to top off our gnome hats with a cotton ball, for the complete Christmas hat look. All together, it’s the sweetest addition to any Christmas tree!
Handprint Christmas Gnome Ornament Craft
For our Christmas gnome craft, you will need cardstock in Christmas colors of choice plus a small bit of tan, a white paint pen, ⅝” circle paper punch, scissors, and a glue stick.
You’ll also need twine or yarn to hang your Christmas handprint gnomes. We used tape to adhere it in place.
Christmas Gnome Craft Supplies Needed
- Cardstock – tan, Christmas colors of choice
- ⅝” circle paper punch
- White paint pen
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- Yarn or twine

Gnome Ornament Craft Step by Step Directions
Begin by tracing a handprint on the Christmas color of your choice.
We chose red and green cardstock for our Christmas gnomes.
Cut out the handprint.
Now, cut a simple triangle hat to fit the width of the handprint from the other color of cardstock.
You’ll also need to punch a ⅝” circle from tan cardstock.
Glue the circle in the center of the handprint.
Then, glue the triangle over the nose. Trim the edges of the hat to fit the handprint if needed.
Next, use a white paint pen to draw a festive design on the gnome hat.
Top off the hat with a cotton ball.
Lastly, cut a strand of yarn or twine. We used red yarn. Tape the yarn in a loop to the back top of the Christmas gnome to hang your super cute Christmas handprint gnome ornament from the tree.
