Welcome to Good Gourds

Welcome to "Good Gourds". Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope that you'll enjoy looking at my gourds. I spend many hours cleaning (both the inside and outside), carving, engraving with a wood burner (pyrography) and painting each gourd.
Remember each gourd is a work of nature. Each one is unique with small bumps and irregular curves. If you look closely, each is misshapen just a little bit. I think this adds to their charm. Let me know what you think.
Thanks again,
Suzanne Lancaster

Grizzly and Moose with Alaska Mountains Gourd

On one side of this gourd is an Alaska Brown Bear or Grizzly and on the opposite side is a moose. Alaska mountain ranges are in the background. 7 inches diameter; 7 inches tall; circumference 24 inches. Engraved by pyrography, painted with acrylics; finished with acrylic sealer. It stands on four 3/4 inch round wood beads. Dried lavender cotton stems are coiled around the top.

Contact me (click on my name under "About Me") by email if you're interested in buying it.
