After many excursions to Switzerland I became rather wild for gnomes. There is something enchanting, mystical and a little mischievous about them! While walking through the villages of Interlaken, I happened upon a menagerie of gnomes. Made me want to take one of these little guys home with me! :)
I also wanted to find out the history behind the gnome and why these little dwarf like characters are in so many gardens... :) Found out that the word gnome is derived from a latin and greek word which means "knowledge" and "earth dweller."
Personally, I think they watch over the gardens and bring good fortune.
Why else would you have these little elf like guys all over your yard..jejejje :)
Long live the gnome!
XOXO
