Holiday Gnome Decor

Gnomes bring rich tradition and plenty of tall tales into your home. It may have been the Scandinavian gnome that first started slipping into our homes. It’s known to spend less time in the garden and more in barns and houses. In Denmark and Norway, this rascal is called nisse, in Sweden it’s tomte and the Fins say tonttu. Nordic tales tie the gnome with the solstice and with the Christmas season.

Today, gnomes’ popularity as seasonal décor is soaring, and there are plenty of options to suit your Christmas décor theme of choice. Are you planning a classic Christmas with a large Christmas tree full of red baubles and gold ribbon? A gnome Santa statue or ornament will become a favorite new tradition that blends right in with your traditional décor. Are you leaning more towards a casual and cozy Northwoods Christmas theme? Choose from a wide range of rustic gnomes, sporting plaid, pom poms and—of course—fluffy beards. Sitting or standing gnomes, sizable creatures or miniature gnomes, colorful or monotone gnomes, fluffy fabric gnomes or wooden gnomes. Bring your favorite gnome or two home today, and consider picking up an extra for a unique gift idea!

Gnome Christmas décor is easy to add to your home this year. You can go all in on gnomes with a Christmas tree displaying different gnome ornaments, or simply add a Santa gnome or other gnome figurine to an empty tabletop, shelf or mantle display. A gnome in a hidden corner or unexpected spot can also bring some whimsy to your home this holiday season, and a smile on the face of anyone who spots it. There’s “gnome” place like HOM for all your Christmas décor needs this year.
