 this week we're hanging out with our nomi and we even made some interchangeable pieces the hats and the little things that he's getting to hold it's like a holiday thing and we'll show you how we made them right now what is up a welcome back do you like to do a builder make it we do too and we have a new video every week this week we're going where no man has gone before it's like bottom of the ninth bases are loaded tie score now it's time to hit a grand slam gnome run well let me back it up a little bit and start with today's my birthday secondly I had some creators block this week it's like typically we're a little behind in the filming anyway we're like just in time filmmakers so usually I come up with the idea Friday Saturday you know I kind of know what we want to do we gather supplies Sunday film Sunday maybe Monday something like that produce the video Friday but this week I didn't know what I wanted to do Saturday I couldn't make a decision on Sunday had no idea Monday I had an idea and I sent Garrett to figure out how this would work work it work it out work it out Garrett and he spent a day and a half on it and we couldn't get to work it's on the project shelf it will come back to it it's gonna be a great project if I can get to work and it's shippable and all of that stuff it'll be fun so enter what's today Wednesday so Monday night about 11 o'clock here we are trying to still try to figure out the project to come up with an idea yesterday he prototypes it we get it ready and now here we are after work on Wednesday 6 30 we're gonna start filming this video so I was a super long and try to say we have to make a quick and easy project this week because I couldn't get together and guess what I don't know you're ready for next week here we are next week's project but I'll get I'll get together I'll get together for that but for now we have a great idea for this week it'll be quick and easy so but it'll be fun and it's fall related actually it's all season it's another one of these all-season projects interchangeable yep you know how we like the interchangeable so we're making interchangeable nooms you know you thought we were gonna say a home sign but now we're going with an interchangeable no sign yeah so during my creators block my oldest daughter Courtney who's helping us with our social media posted out on Facebook give us some fall DIY ideas and you guys really came through we got a lot of comments and Patty gave us a lot of great ideas so it was her idea to do the fall porch known which I still want to do but I can't make it big enough for a porch yet I wanted 36 inches and I haven't figured that one out yet but I do have a desktop version it's like you could be a like a small porch or like no no small I don't know yeah you guys judge little no money porch put this no more ever you want I envision he's a desktop no more tabletop entryway table is really what I'm thinking I mean we really have no room to tell you where to put it he's just so you know he is stacked and loaded with no pawns and ready to go I heard him talking to himself as soon as she told me what the project I said oh this one's gonna be funny yeah get ready you have enough I said no problem all right enough talking why don't we get this project started step one that we're gonna gather all of our supplies for this one we really just needed some MDF like a bunch of sheets I don't even know how many yet so I'm gonna start with four but we're making two of them I'm doing my own gnome she's gonna do a gnome so we'll put the SVG file on our site and you guys can go get that if you want it and try and cut it out so last year we did a really cute Grinch hand which we cut out using the X car and the cricket you could do something similar with this one you may have a little difficult time standing up you may have to put one around something like that her work will like chipboard yeah shrink them down too because I want to make a big one I want to make a big I want to make a 36 inch one but I'm gonna make as big as I can cut in the glow forge going tip-to-tip step to we're gonna make all of our cuts I gotta take the MDF over to the glow forge and we're gonna cut out all of our little gnome shapes there's like a bunch of little shapes it's gonna be 388 it's gonna pop gonna stand out it's gonna stand up step 3 now we paint we paint all of our gnome and all of our accents I'm not gonna paint all of my stuff though like I'm gonna cheat super cheap well and I am too in in the sense that you can paint your hat a solid color but I really liked what Garrett did the other day when he covered his door tags so I'm gonna cover my hat in this cute fall paper which I have pre-picked and so I'm gonna cut that out and I'm gonna Mod Podge that onto my little gnome here you're not gonna wing it no not winging it not really a winger you're not yeah nope going with a net what are you doing you're not even ready he's not even ready over there I'm gonna paint my gnome first get him going what do you paint yours I'm gonna oh I can't hold on I'm a little bit ahead of myself I've got to cut out my hat first I was ready to glue them and then cut around it you think so are you sure you think so that's how I did my tags remember just go back and watch the video I Mod Podge get down then once it dried I flipped it over and cut around it all right what do you think that was easier than just cutting it to size it's totally easier and it ended lined right up and I came back in with that black marker and touched up the edge of the paper looked seamless all right so should I paint my guys pants blue yes why don't you tell them about our fancy paint scared we got these great paints I am sold on them now because they they cover things in one coat we paint a lot of MDF and this paint goes on in one coat and I hate to come back I mean that's the main reason I hate painting is having to put a second coat on or it leaves those brush marks it just looks and I don't have the patience to go back in on the second coat and I already painted once what more do you want yeah I really love these Country Chic paints I agree we were working with them last night and they really do cover in one coat and I can't tell you how much I love having such a variety of colors now I know I have the acrylics but they were still your basic colors and I really love these farmhouse colors in this in this palette here it's different than your kind of what would you call it like your traditional palette like your carnival palette or something all like slightly muted okay I don't know I meant to do some known facts I ran out of time today all right I gave him some leaderhosen his beard's gonna go over that so you're not gonna see but we'll know you and I will know that he's got a leaderhosen underneath his beard just leaderhosen he's got an open chest this is a great color yeah that's a good color nobody could have known that that would have worked so speaking of gnome puns do you have a pun for gnomes leave it in the comments down below like we'll just get a couple out of the way like gnome sweet gnome there's no place like no mama I'm coming no love the gnome you're with sweet gnome Alabama oh here we go now we got the songs that's where I'll get stuck there yep mm-hmm already there guess while those things are drying I can start on my holiday accents so we decided for this little gnome set we're gonna do two sets of interchangeable accents exits we're gonna do a fall winter and then spring summer yeah summer yeah so we'll do this maple leaf snowflake the heart a little wreath a pumpkin and then a jack-o-lantern and then the other set is going to have march is a shamrock April was something for Easter's like a bunny there was a star with a flag on it for July that's right oh flip-flops there's six of them you know missing one 12 months I think we just skip September let's all pretend September doesn't happen so there will be a spring to a leaf spring summer there'll be a spring summer set to go with these as well but we only have the fall winter cut today because I'm doing I'm doing so I see what you did there with your montage but I'm gonna take it to a whole other level I'm gonna put my paper on this board first I'm gonna put my paper on first my podge my paper down then I'm gonna cut it out on it what are you gonna cut out my shapes I'm gonna re-cut out my shapes well that is cheating I told you it's gonna be a super cheat as I've been working with these laser laser cut pieces well one tip it is nice to prime them first so they're kind of a light base coat but you don't necessarily have to I'm not on these so that's one thing but these pumpkins actually have what is this scored engraved lines in them score marks so you know exactly so like some of the accents already done for you so when I paint over them like I just did you can go back and for the little ribs here in the pumpkin you can just use a little well I'm using this what is this like picker tool yeah or you could use a toothpick and you can just run it right down that little groove and it clears it right out of paint and it brings it right back and it was nice and easy so I'm gonna show you here almost like there was no pain in it just say no pain huh all right so I might podge it down and then I'll put a light coat of my podge over it because I'm going to mask it off so I don't want the masking tape to peel a paper and so that's gonna kind of protect it yeah all right so here I hope you can see it here the little lines have come back because I just kind of drug the little or is it picker tool right through there so she went this green now he's got a little green stem all right I'll set that aside and I'm also going to do a Christmas gnome so I'm gonna do another hat with the which by the way I should probably go ahead and start my podging that dry but I'm gonna do this little wreath and I'm gonna paint him green with a red bow and red berries and yellow stars so exciting stand by waiting just to say hi did you stop no I got one movie quotes oh it's here winter is no mean that's like that's not a movie quote that's a show quote I guess okay you're right and it's from that show game of gnomes all right pretty dry I'm gonna mask it off now I want the smoke to get on there I know you can't really rub the smoke off the paper so I'm gonna mask it all set back to the glow forge that will my little pieces you're gonna cut that out by hand I just cut mine out on the glow forge oh oh I just broke the stem off oh no that's okay I'll glue it on I'm gonna peel back the mask and see how it came out see it without the stem there's my heart well Valentine's heart check out my beef so my paper is white core so I'm gonna use this little black paint paint marker here to just kind of you know make those edges the same as the side I'm just gonna make them black here's his cute little hat and I think you're right because it's paper it's indoor he probably doesn't need it but I think that coat of Mod Podge is a good idea yeah yeah can you share a little brush right here yeah this just will seal it I think next steps is assembly put it all together this gorilla glue is like an e6000 but we found a gorilla glue version and I guess what I think we can get to stick in two seconds you just have to give it about two minutes to set up a little bit then add your top piece your glued on me what are you doing I'm gonna glue my hat on are you doing your hat on no because he's interchangeable what am I doing good yeah he was gonna be a permanent hat could be could be a permanent hat I need to glue my beard on you're getting ready to do your food yeah we'll get some favorite towels okay I'll be away let me put a string I see you need it no so I'm just gonna use this hat for now to use line up my beard lining up my beard alright was that glue now no project ever to should I make this beard interchangeable so that we could see his leaderhosing no is these really strong magnets I'll have a link in the description somebody asked for them last time I think we shared with you that they are crazy strong I don't think we need a magnet this strong but this is the magnets we have so once you peel them away catch it get it baby I got it somebody took out the spacer yeah that's the problem oh that that magnet beat you or than this magnet Kim come on get it up there you go so I think I'm just gonna set it here and then I'm going to glue one of these wafers on like we did with the other project I'll glue that onto the hat the strong magnet will stay on the dome pre-glued anyway let me show you so I put that and let it dry for two minutes and I'll look see it sticks right away wouldn't what I'm gonna do we have a small set of hands and a bigger set of hands the small set is going to sit right behind the big set and glue down so that it leaves just enough of a gap where you can slide in your interchangeable accents so I'm just going to line up I'm gonna put my pumpkin here line up where I want my little little hands to go I'll glue those down I'm gonna put my nose on the hat so my nose is dry and I'm gonna add it I'm only got glue on the top half of my nose and I'm gonna glue it to the top half here so it'll sit over the beard I glued my nose to my beard I'm gonna try to go without a magnet see if my nose will hold my hat on got what the steps were last step we're gonna finish putting it together so the glue is pretty dry my hands are a little wiggly and my hands are a little wiggly too but they'll dry so the base has these little slots for his little feet slots his little feet tabs just gonna put his little feet tabs in the little base and now I put his nose on half his be why put half his nose on his beard and I didn't use a magnet I'm just gonna slide my hats yeah okay so this is the preferred method mine works it's good but then you have to have extra noses so my nose is attached to the hat has a little magnet and jumps right on there jumps on it does jump right on there so let me show you with our little leaf I'll show you with a little pumpkin oh my goodness look at how cute that is so if you noticed I cut mine just a little bit bigger than Kim's it's just a little bit bigger it'll be this size if you want to just run that's the size this is the limit that the Glowforge would cut 19.9 inches here's what his here he is with the little pumpkin hands see that like snowflake ain't nobody ain't nobody alright what do you guys think this is a cute little quick and easy project right and you can make him interchangeable it's time for a birthday dinner so we got to go so we will see you next week we'll do it build it and make it again might be time for a birthday wine oh might be time for a gnome balance headstand headstand no money knows what I was trying to say let me get any less minute gnome I don't have any more
