Colouring the Gnome Family with Mhairi Hellbrandt
We’re so delighted to share a special collaboration with illustrator Mhairi Hellbrandt, whose gentle, whimsical drawings have a way of capturing childhood wonder. Mhairi’s work is often inspired by folklore, nature, and the small details that make everyday life feel magical.
For this project, she has created a sweet gnome family with their mushroom home — ready for little hands (and big ones too!) to colour in.
How to enjoy the Gnome Family colouring set
-
Download & print: simply click below to get your free sheet.
-
Colour & create: bring the gnome family to life with crayons, pencils, or watercolours.
-
Cut out & play: once finished, you can carefully cut along the lines and turn the characters into puppets or decorations for seasonal play.
This activity is perfect for a cosy afternoon at home, for classroom crafts, or to add to a seasonal table. Children can tell their own stories, invent adventures, or tuck the gnomes into their mushroom home for rest.
