Pumpkins, Squash & Gourds

gourd gifts

21 years ago

Just curious, are any of you giving gourds as gifts, or selling some at holiday craft shows?

I've had a fairly good autumn at various craft shows, and hope you are also. I've donated several for benefits to raise cash to help with medical expenses.

........so what do you do with your gourds?

I've only made two this year for gifts. I've been busy trying to make enough for a two day festival next year. Last year I gave about 6 for gifts. I hope I do as good as you did at your festival.

I'm just now finishing up two gourd lamps that I am giving to two gals in my office. I painted a farm scene on each one. These are my first lamps, I'm pretty excited about them.
