There are so many great memories from that time I could write a book but I'll just share one memory that makes me laugh when I think of it. Most of you know I've been building a Gnome Home since 2014. I write stories, take pictures, and most of the time I'm living in that world. I guess you could say I'm a bit of an eccentric but #LifeIsGood I was building one day in the Gnome's home when Jordan's face lit up like a lightbulb and he was completely serious, "MA! I found the perfect husband for you! You should marry Radagast the Brown. You guys would be perfect together!" Let's think about this a bit shall we, Radagast is an eccentric wizard living in a wonky house in the forest. He's a protector of animals and is a friend to the birds. He travels by way of sleigh pulled by 12 Rhosgobel rabbits. Yup! That sounds about perfect to me, my boy, a match made in a magical forest! ❤❤❤ That day I decided I would eventually make a mini Radagast just for sweet memories sake. I'll never forget his face all lit up when he said that to me, I giggle every time I think of it, it's the way he sees me! And yes, I would totally live in that house. #TrueLoveForever

I don’t know the character, apart from watching you creating him and telling the story about making a husband, the bird poop just kill me, so much detail, you are my favourite creative RU-vidr. And you make everything look easy to make.

A few months ago of channel surfing, I spotted your video. I watched and saved it. Finally after knee surgery, I started a piece today. Thanks so much for your tutorial.

I can’t thank you enough! I’ve made a version of your hedgehog and now onto this! I’m loving every minute! I can’t believe you can make all this from these materials! You’ve opened my mind and world up so much! Thank you, thank you, thank you xxx 🙏🏼🤍

HE IS SO ADORABLE! You have really inspired me for this Fall Witch project. You can build anything with foil, glue, and tissue! So AMAZING!

☘👍Dear Sharon, today I found your Website on youtube, I'm really excited and have subscribed, the minis and the wizard and and and, I love stuff like that. Kind regards from Austria. Your videos are great. 👍

Sharon, this was a long video but I could not stop watching it. This is just an amazing process and I keep wondering how in the world do you know how to do all that stuff. I am encouraged to try making my own gnome using your helpful video. I have learned so much from your video's in the past as well. THANK YOU! I love your Rataghast!

I absolutely loved watching your video, it's so nice you left in the mistakes and explained them. The finished model is awesome, so clever and the use of foil and paper towels incredable, would never have thought of that. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent

He is absolutely gorgeous. Adorable 💕💕💕 I've seen alot of Radagast figures, but none are as cute yours .

Love this. You will have to make his sledge and rabbits, so that he can get around. ❤️ From England, UK

So cute I love him . Wonderful work Sharon, you are a great designer congratulations. Love from Australia 😍🙋‍♀️

Sharon, all I can say is this is awesome. You were the first person I dared follow a video and I made several of your animal amigurumi and I fell in love with your teaching skills boy did it work for me. My favorite was an inspired character of a story about a forest and trees I can't remember the name but I was so proud of you and me because your voice and teaching made it possible for me to complete the project from beginning to the end. With that being said this video is something I want to try and when I do I will be sharing so you can see my take on this. So glad I once again bumped into you.❤❤❤❤

Amazing! I love how you use materials that anyone can get hold of and they aren't expensive either. Will watch some more of your videos you're so clever! ❤️

I loved watching this again. Thank you for putting it in one video.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 👼🏻🎶📯🎄👑🌟🎁

You did an absolutely fantastic job on him!!!!💕💕🧜‍♀️

I just love this little guy! You’re details are amazing!!

I was watching an earlier video of yours where you were building a tree using a bunch of small boxes. In the introduction video you stated that you used to make castles out of dressers, I think if you made a series of castle videos it’d be cool. Of course that’s if you wanted-it is your channel after all, love your creativity and easy to follow directions too 😊

The eyes were a stroke of genius! I wouldn't have thought oof using split peas in a million years!

as always, charming and delightful!!! Thank you Sharon!!! You are amazing!! And so talented!!

Thanks for the cool video. I am trying different art and crafts. This will be on my list of future art projects. I’ve already made miniature room, and started house, faux stained glass. This will be in the future.

This is such an adorable story! Soooo precious. Why don’t you make a miniature you, to go with this guy? He needs his wife by his side!

You are just brilliant, he looks wonderful!

Still watching but he looks so so so good. Once again a work of art from you.

You are so clever and imagination is over the roof 😀, all the important things that a genius has and Radagast wife (of course 🥰). You are unbelievably creative and I love to watch you work, figuring how to solve a problem. Even more I love your voice and your warm laughter always makes me smile. Keep up doing what you do best, everything creative 😀. Blessing from a Finnish 🇫🇮 woman living in Sweden

Okay I've seen all of your tree videos and now I'm hooked on these. You're such an amazing teacher 🤗 I just made a double batch of paperclay today. Time for me to build a foil armature. Maybe a fairy 🤔☺

This is so stinking cute, thanks for sharing all your hard work.

I will love watch you making a Fairy doll, nice video!

I LOVE JRR Tolkien work. You are doing a great job on the Brown Wizard. Looking forward to the next video.

Love the thread and wire hand technique!!!! I was going to try clay but I like this so much better! I swear I think about how many comments I leave and think of what you must think, "stalker, much?" ;) I just love your work so much I can't even put it into words! You've made it possible for me to get all the ideas in my head, out into the physical form! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

He’s fabulous m,and has so much character ..Love him 🥰

You are so clever. I really love your videos/tutorials and you have such a lovely voice. How brilliant that your son thought Ragnagast would be your perfect husband. I don’t have kids, but I do have two Godsons and I would love it if they ever said/thought something like that about me. Bless you for sharing your talent with us. 😘

Fantastic little guy! I'm saying 'little ' cause he's only 7" tall! Thanks for sharing your story!😻

Beautiful work, Sharon. Love it. TY 🙏❤️ Bet your Son loves it!

Those eyes were insperational!

Вы замечательный мастер. Мне нравится ваши работы

This is soooooo good and so amazing!! You are very gifted! He is so cute!!

He is magnificent! Your attention to detail such as his cheek position when he smirks is incredible. I so excited to see your idea about the yarn "fluff"...it is perfect! We all have our favorite tools to use and for me it was an x-acto knife. After watching ton's of videos during COVID, I saw so many artisans using ball tools for everything from painted mandalas, curving flower petals and FIMO faces. I can't remember exactly what it was that I was doing that made me decide to order a set but I did. Now I have about 10, in a variety of sizes and I LOVE them!! They are incredibly easy to use and I have never been an artist who has to have a lot of tools. Like I said, I could smooth a surface with an X-acto so why have a separate tool? The ball tools have really been a joy to have. They are excellent for eye sockets, noses, cheeks and general modeling. I think you would really enjoy having a set.

I can't wait to try this with the character "Hoggle" I think I got that right. (From the labyrinth). Thank you so much for all of your amazing videos!

BUT WHAT A GOOD! COMPLIMENTS! GREETINGS FROM ITALY!

Oh my goodness the creative doors this vid has opened for me. Love it and thank you for the inspiration.👏🎖🙏🏼❤️

Thanks for sharing your talent with us, I'm working on a doll house myself and making characters for the house was something I couldn't figure out but after watching you this has given me some ideas, Thank you once again.

WOW ! You are amazing ! Thanks for sharing your skills. Beautiful work, so magical and mesmerizing. 🙏

I love him! I had to hunt for the comment with the timestamps but that is such an adorable story. And yes I always figure out an easier way to do something once I'm just about done 😆

Fantastic! I love how you dressed him and made the shoes. You’re so clever.

When i saw the thumpnail i was like radagast the brown!😍

Woow it's amazing😍👌.. You are so talented👌❤ and hardworking... Love from... India🇮🇳

Brilliant. Really enjoyed watching you make Radogas x

Absolutely adorable, you are amazing! I was thinking, for the rags on his hands, you could make some very strong coffee and dye your cheese cloth that way. I have done it and it works well. Thank you for sharing your amazing talents!

He turned out AMAZING! Thanks for sharing!

First time I found your channel. I am hooked. You are awesome. Great work. I may even try some time. Will be watching everyone of your videos. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

He is absolutely so charming! Like, I wanna give him a hug. I had not heard of this guy before today. You are so clever! Love the way you captured that sweet memory by creating this cute dude. I had to google him to find out more info, and I can't wait to see him when he's finished. Are you making a staff for him to hold?

Cool Machine …many possibilities !

I LOVE watching you creating and making things. Your imagination and creativity has no bounds Sharon. Thank you so much for sharing. I also LOVE that our last names both have "J's" in them that are pronounced as "Y's". I rarely come across people like. ❤❤❤ 😎

Wow what an artist .Looks amazing

I love your work. Dear pls make a 5cm character. ❤❤❤

You are so amazing, I love to watch you work.

You could have a nail file handy and just take the edge off those wires your using for fingers just so they don’t prick you while your working it would make the tape clay mixture last longer

Excelente trabajo!!! Bendiciones!!!

He's awesome! Now he needs his house lol (but Without the giant spiders)

He looks amazing, fabulous work as alway's ❤️❤️

I love Radagast in the Hobbit!

Have you made Tom Bombadil and Goldberry? I'd love to see them!

Here in the Philippines we call all gnomes, elf, leprechauns, goblins, trolls, brownies, and pixies as duende or "nuno sa punso". "Nuno sa punso" is an elf sitting on an ant hill, it is also a dwarf like element with evil power. While we call fairies as engkantada, ada, or nimpa like the woman called "Mariang Makiling" a goddess of nature.

Hi Sharon, could you hot glue the stretchy fabric on the arms instead?

This is superb

You are amazing! Thank you for sharing!

I use armature wire to make the hands then paint them with Madge lodge to make them thicker because you can add as many layers as you need for the smoothness and thickness

Truly amazing! Love love love!😍

This is fantastic! Annnnd inexpensive !

I love your work.

You are so creative!!!!!

Great. Trying now. Thank you so much.

Picture wire doesn’t break easily and works well too for arms.
