How To Add Christmas Gonks To Your Festive Decorations

There’s a holly jolly new Christmas décor trend that is taking the festive season by snow storm. Adored by the likes of Molly Mae, these charming festive delights are not a decoration you want to miss. So get your festivities in order and prepare your home for the infamous Christmas Gonks! With long white beards and tall, knitted hats; these adorable little creatures bring a stylish Scandinavian vibe that is sure to enhance your seasonal décor.

What exactly is a Christmas Gonk?

We’re so glad you asked. Is it a quirky little gnome? Or is it a charming small Santa? The humble Gonk is a Scandinavian and Nordic mythological creature that originated from gnomes and hobgoblins. As the old lore goes, these little bearded people find their way to live in the farmhouses and barns of humans. If they liked the family they lived with, they would use their mystical magical powers to protect the family, land and bring good fortune. However, if the family disrupted the land and disrespected the gonk’s home; the gonk would become irritated and then begin playing tricks which would cause annoyance for their family.

One wintery Nordic tradition entails leaving a bowl of porridge out during the seasonal winter solstice so that the gonk can eat and enjoy the festivities. When Christmas became more celebrated throughout Scandinavia, the gonk traditions grew with the people, and so these tiny bearded characters gradually became associated with the Christmas season.
