The Roaming Gnome - An idea

A few days ago @ darkGracie gave me an idea.

I don't exactly remember what she said and I cannot locate the update. At the time I was just browsing Twitter on my phone. I wasn't involved in a conversation with anyone. But she said something along the lines of twitter and a roaming gnome....

--lightbulb!--

If you know me you know I love gnomes. I have quite a few just sitting here on my desk at work and they're all over my house. So anyway, I thought since I have one to spare, I could start this roaming gnome project.

I hope enough tweeps join in.

The gnome I am choosing is about 5 inches tall. I chose him because he is small and postage wouldn't be so bad.

Once I get the word out (and enough people wanna play), we'll set some guidelines. Two things that will be a must, first, is that you take a photo of it either with you or somehow indicating where you're located and second, that you send it on to the next tweep.

I'll also start a blog and whoever has the little guy can write a post about the guy's visit. Add your photo, etc. And of course, we'll start a flickr group. :)

So if you're interested in playing and/or helping me organize this, let me know!

So I'm not wanting to make a scarf just yet. I know it will take me a whole year so I'm playing around with easy projects that come out of my head. they don't look put together nicely, but thats ok. :P

Dead Gnome or Shit-Face Drunk Gnome

I love gnomes. and gnomes can be found in any situations. here I started out making him to be a sleeping gnome sitting on his bum, but I couldn't get the pants right so, I just threw him on a pillow and took a picture... thus making him a "finished" project called... well, read above. :P
