GNOME – EGG COZY

Get these cute gnomes for your breakfast table!

They keep your boiled eggs warm and cozy until you are ready to eat them. The gnome‘s hat can easily be removed so that you can quickly take out your boiled egg at any time.

You could also make a whole bunch of them and use them as advent calendar for big chocolate eggs.

No sewing! No parts need to be sewn on top of each other or on to each other.
