Decorating with gourds

This is a wooden bowl my mother passed down to me that she made biscuits 
on everyday when she was a child. I have it filled with dry gourds that 
I have stained various colors.

2, 6 foot dipper gourds hang down the sides of my fireplace. 
I have cleaned my fire place out and burn candles in there when it is not winter time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Close up of the dipper gourd shows this wonderful mold pattern of the skin, I brushed it with a gold glaze, but maintained the mold pattern.

This gourd hangs off my high shelf, the dipper actually curled at the end like a hook. I took a golden gourd garland and wrapped it then set it on the shelf.

I have not saved many of my work for myself except for this Venus De Milo all made out of gourds and this Santa with my gourdian angel daughter Olivia.

I Love Lions they are my indulgence ::))) I love taking trips to flea 
markets and Antique shops to "hunt" for lions ::))

 

 

 

I hope these gourd decorating ideas inspire 
you to decorate with gourds in your home too ::))
