lanny Custom garden gnomes

Does anyone know of any local companies or artists that can make custom garden gnomes?
Due to the custom work desired, Id like to deal with someone in-person so thats why Im looking for someone here in Calgary. Id be willing to listen to someone’s experience if they used someone online and are happy with the end result. Im not wanting cheap plastic chinese crap.

Secret signs your neighbor might be a swinger

They may look sweet and innocent, but it turns out garden gnomes are a likely indicator that the resident is into swinging.

Maybe you could put a special request in at one of the local arts centers with a kiln and see if they / you can custom make something. Or take a class that teaches clay and go a bit off-script with your creation.

I may be able to help, are you looking for gnomes specifically or hummels?

Probably hundreds of sculptors and student artists out there that would be happy to take on a commission for a project like this.
