Give a Gnome a Home

 

We are continuing with our "Give a Gnome a Home" campaign to raise fund for the sanctuary at the moment I have a total of 6 gnomes on order.  Gnomes range from £10 to £15 with the girlie gnomes being more as they are complex range in price from £15 to £25.  So if you want one please email on rainbowhealingsanctuary@yahoo.co.uk

 



















 

Our give a gnome a home campaign has been quite successful and I have loving knitted lots of gnomes, some of which have winged their way to the U.S.A and five little ones I understand were delighted this Christmas.  Gnomes vary in price from £10 to £15 - our Valentine ones will have a little heart shaped key ring to go with them and we felt these would make delightful present for a loved one or as a Mothers Day gift. Moreover our gnomes have become so popular that they now have a blog so why don't you follow the Gnomes Story and their adventures  (and at a later date I will be hopefully publishing it and illustrating it too).  (http://grandgnometour.blogspot.co.uk

 We also have a number of little tortoises for sale and also our loveable owls plus various other things for sale.  If you wanted something special knitted please contact me as all the profits from these little fellows are going to help fun a spiritual, alternative and healing sanctuary this coming year.  If you want to order anything please  email: rainbowhealingsanctuary@hotmail.co.uk or text me on

We have been very busy knitting owls, key ring, mobile covers and gnomes.  Our knit a gnome campaign has proved quite successful and we are now getting gnomes travelling out of the United Kingdom as do the owls - over the next few weeks we will be publishing some of our past work and if you would like anything please contact us on rainbowhealingsanctuary@hotmail.co,uk or ring 079027 288904.  All our little gnomes have names and all the people who have them have been delighted as they make toys for children and mascots for adults as do the owls so take a look at all these pictures. Those on the right are called the "Rainbow Mob" and the owl has already gone to a good home and I feel one of the little gnomes will soon be looking for a visa to travel across the pond.  The owls have already travelled to Australia and we are hoping they will travel worldwide.  We are using the money to help fund a spiritual sanctuary come healing centre.  So please support us.

 

I have been busy knitting gnomes for our "Give a Gnome a Home Campaign" to swell the funds to fund a sanctuary both for healing, spiritual development, alternative therapies etc. Our latest effort was Grandma Gnomey Nora with not only glasses but a small wooden walking stick plus wings -  Our gnomes are now going worldwide as well as our owls and I am knitting rainbow owls at this moment as well as some other project.  I am in the middle of knitting a white owl, but the rainbow wings are causing difficulties, but like Grandma Gnomey Nora's wings it will get resolved so Maria Veiga you will eventually get your owl.  There is also an order for another owl, an angel and a rattle so Lorna Hunte, Patricia Tucker Sevret and Linda Ferguson they will get done and the owl may be resolved with one of our latest rainbow owls which will be a hoot.  I am also knitting some mult- coloured tortoises. 

Gnomes and more gnomes on Grand Spiritual Church Tour

Well these little fellows are getting everywhere as these made their present felt in docklands at Barbara Barnes small sanctuary in Westferry Road.  We are knitting to raise money for our own healing and teaching academy.  Previously to this Graham Watson has taken them to some spiritualist churches and everyone love the gnomes.  They managed to get their noses in at Woodford Church during a workshop too and I am adding a selection of photographs to this blog entry.  If you want a gnome or anything else knitted please email us on rainbowhealingsanctuary@hotmail.co.uk or telephone 07927 288904.  If you want to see the gnomes on their tour then look at our other blog where we will be announcing where Graham will be taking them. Each gnome is individual and they all have their own characters  Those in the picture on the left are heading for new destinations the two on the right of the picture are at this very moment travelling to be with Graham and the other little fellow will be heading north very soon. 

Owls and more owls

 

This little fellow is off down under to a new home and has been purchased by a lovely lady called Kathleen Johnson who has three adorable dogs as well as some beautiful horses in Australia.  I am really enjoying knitting these and it has become a great challenge creating different one.  Especially my new fair isle ones two of which have gone to a lady called Linda Ferguson who does a lot of work for the Boo Owl Sanctuary. Unfortunately at the moment I can't knit as I Have broken a pinky and my hand is quite badly bruised and swollen.  Hopefully I will be back knitting soon. I have lots of new ideas buzzing around and am very keen to put them into practice.  Meanwhile please remember that half of the purchase goes into a fund for our sanctuary and if you want your purchase to go completely to the project go to our www.gofundme.com site which you will find the link for on http://artfromtheheart1.blogspot,com.  We also have another site www.rainbowcraftlady.etsy.com

 

Naughty Gnomes and Other things

A Happy New Year to all our readers.  Been very busy with projects and these are some of the results a series on naughty gnomes and elfin  mice amounts other things.  Had a few commissions for owls and heart key rings which is nice as we always welcome these to swell the funds.  Got to confess some of the money earned  has been spent on bits for the knitting some new circle needles. I have several projects on the go two pairs of fingerless gloves, two owls, a dragon, a penguin  and another gnome.  For other gnomes and things look at our Etsy site, which we have reopened our etsy site and the link ins http://rainbowcraftlady.etsy.com.  As I said we always welcome commissions.
