Welcome to the Gnome Home Virtual Mall
The Gnome Home began as a little arts and craft shop in 1985.
Originally the mission of The Virtual Gnome Home Mall was to help mothers with young children have the potential to be able to stay home, create works of art and crafts, have an income from their creations while having fun and spend more time with their families.
The Gnome Home is for everyone, especially crafters and artists, men and women, young and old and children, too.
Most
of us who make handcrafted items know the many hours it takes to complete a
project, so we don't always have "enough stuff" to fill a store,
and we often opt to bring our crafts to local craft shows and flea markets.
Years passed and I learned web design and a new language - ‘html’ - I was no longer restricted to a little building, a corner in the garage, flea markets or yard sales to display and sell my art and crafts. I could reach out using The Virtual Gnome Home Mall for the whole wide world – www – to see my artwork and crafts.
Now The Virtual Gnome Home Mall is available to other artists and crafters who would like to do the same – show their creations to the whole wide world.
If you are a crafter and would like to sell your creations from The Virtual Gnome Home Mall contact us by Email at thegnomehome@yahoo.com; snail mail at: The Gnome Home, 131 Peekamoose Road, Sundown, NY 12740); or telephone 845-985-0501 and leave a message and we will get back to you.
Only Once... original handmade crafts
According to Scandinavian legend - if you hang a kitchen witch in your kitchen, cakes and breads will rise, rice, beans and toast will not burn, pots never boil dry and there will never be too much salt when baking, boiling or stewing. The spices you mix will be perfect, as well as the tea and coffee you serve. You can purchase a custom designed kitchen witch for your kitchen, or learn how to make your own kitchen witch.
