Location: Tennessee, USA (but not native)
Occupation: Mom and Crazy Person (heavy on the crazy person)
Hobbies: Creating things from Jewelry to havoc.
Total# of Gnomes: 5 (pitifully small ain't it?)
Total# of Fairies: 2 (even smaller and more pitiful)
Gnoming Since: 1990 (shocking when you consider how small and pitiful my collection is)

Gnome Preference: I prefer to be given them as gifts! lol


Reason you started gnoming:
I saw Gnomes and Gardens on a sale rack at the Barnes & Noble and just had to have it. It's impossible to hate an American Gothic Gnome! They called to me. I was hooked. I have a couple of other gnome specific books and several books by Brian Froud. (My favorite remains Lady Cottington's Pressed Fairy Book. I always feel bad for the fairies but I can't help loving how they look all squished. A bit of schadenfreude no?)

Other "Wee Folk" Hobbies: I love all things Wee Folk. If I had the money to spend my house would be full of them and I'd be living in a Hobbit hole like this one: http://www.simondale.net/house/.

Great Profile Jen!


And where on Earth did you get picturs of MissGnomer's Fantasy Cabin Get-a-way!!!

*sigh* -- I would live there in a New York minute...

I love the Lady Cottington's book! It is so much fun

Hooray for faeries!

I, too, have Lady C books:
Fairy Album
Pressed Fairy Letters, and
10 3/4 Anniv Pressed Fairy book
What fun!
