Easy crafting and creating for gifts or selling

This book is easy to follow with great illustrations and instructions. The Native Americans use gourds for many things and often decorate them with early drawings of animals and native designs. Others, sometimes, just color them and add gold touches. Gourds come in many shapes and may be used for bird houses, baskets, containers, decorator items, etc. I've purchased a gourd from "The Gourd Farm" that looks like a SNAKE. Even the stem appears to be the snake's tongue. It will be so much fun to paint and place near the entrance to my home. They even make musical instruments by stringing wooden beads in a net fashion around them. Gourd painting isa lot of fun. I hope you'll give it a try.
Goofy over gourds

This is a great book if you enjoy gourds. If you don't know anything about gourds or don't know anything about painting, it is still a good book, as there are enough instructions to get anyone started. The author presents some of the most creative gourd designs I have ever encountered. The book was well worth the money to me.

Anyone who enjoys working with gourds will truely appreciate the effort that has gone into the making of this book. I especially appreciated the very detailed photographs that accompany each project in the book. Everyone, from novice to expert will find something of interest. The book is written in an easy to understand format and everything needed to complete each project is listed. An excellent addition to any collection of "gourd" books, exactly what I was looking for.
