Both gnomes and hobbits are fantasy creatures. It would be hard to actually compare them. However, if you were to compare the garden gnomes in the Harry Potter series with the hobbits in The Hobbit, the gnomes would be very much shorter.

What is the difference between gnomes and hobbits?

Hobbits are smaller, tend to be curly-haired, dress 'chiefly in green and yellow', have hairy feet with thick soles, and live in hobbit-holes. Dwarves are slightly bigger, usually bearded, and live in mountains. Dwarves are miners and stone-workers and they like gold. Hobbits like eating and smoking pipeleaf. Dwarves are also much more war-like than hobbits - dwarves craft weapons and armour while hobbits don't involve themselves in war. Hobbits are also much stealthier that dwarves and can move about quite quietly and avoid detection.

How do you make your friends like gnomes?

I love your question. I suggest you change the focus from your gnomes to you. I'm sure you have asked your friends how they like your gnomes and have received less than desirable comments. This is hurtful to you as it would be for anyone sharing their favorite things. From now on it's not about the gnomes. It's about you and that you love gnomes. It will be easier for your friends to like you for your love of gnomes than it will be for your friends to love gnomes like you love them. Show interest in their loves and they will show interest in yours. Heck, I don't even know you and I like it that you like gnomes. Just don't make me like them if I don't want to.
