The key to a great super gnome headquarters is the details.  Gather all of the knobs and do-dads that you collected and start attaching them to the door and facade.  In the specific case of the Nook of Justice, there are two eternal beacon torches that summon the L.E.G.S.  For the flames, make two cone shapes out of Sculpey and give each one a twist.  Then insert the torch into the Sculpey flame.  Bake the entire torch assembly in a pre-heated 275 F oven for about 20-25 min.

Once the Sculpey is cooled, paint the flames with a swirl of gold, yellow, and red acrylic paint.  Give it a few coats of clear spray paint once the paint is dry. Using a dab of construction adhesive, mount the flames on the torches.

Drill pilot holes for the knobs and toches and mount them in place using the bolts [um, you do have the bolts for the knobs right?]

For the door hinges, hammer out two sheets of copper and take them in place using some small brads.
