Wrap the thin sole cover felt piece around the sole of the shoe and hot glue it in place.Cut a two tiny rectangles from the gold glitter craft foam with even tinier squares cut out of the center to create buckles and glue these in place onto the front of the boots.Wrap the top of the boot shaft around the top of the boot and hot glue it in place.Wrap the toe piece around the end of the craft stick with the slits allowing the toe piece to fit nicely around the cylinder of the boot.When the glue has set, slide this over the dowel and hot glue it in place on top of the craft stick, forming the cylinder into the shoe shape of the craft stick.With the larger rectangle shoe piece, roll this into a cylinder and hot glue it in place.Cut the shoe elements from the pattern out of the stiff black felt, cutting the boot shaft from the white short-fur.
Hot glue a piece of dowel (about 5 inches long) to the center toward the back of this craft stick.Repeat with the other half of the craft stick, then stack the two craft sticks on top of each other and hot glue them together. Make the gnome legs and shoes according to the pattern, cutting the craft stick in half, then make it in to a short, 1 1/2 long rounded oval by cutting down either end and rounding it.Hem all of the edges, as necessary if your fabric is prone to fraying.
