    Donna, What is he made of. He looks like he could be made of pure sugar, so sweet and nice. YUM, I love him already.

    Donna, how good of you to rescue him from the junk shop. Gnomes shouldn't go slumming. With your good influence, he will straighten up and be a productive, happy gnome!

    MMMMM...quite a handsome fellow but the first thing would be to get him some decent clothes!Very important if he wants to be a gnome with any sort of influence or popularity! ;)

    Donna he looks more like an Elf to me. But then I'm a Gnome buddy so just ignore me. You have to keep a close eye on those little guys. They can be pretty sneaky. :D

    It is interesting what one can rescue from the shop of discarded items. He will look great in a new outfit.

    Hey! That looks like a good one. Will you paint it yourself, or leave it the way it is?

    He is beautiful now and I'm sure he feels so happy to be in your home. He looks so warm now.
