    I think a lot of us like to see pictures of other creative crafts in the picture section and that is where you posted your pictures of your beautiful gourds. Thanks for sharing.

    That is beautiful artwork there. Very innovative and the colours are just perfect. I love it. What paints did you use there. I assume they are acrylic, but can you give me the make. I used to have a ceramic shop so really am interested in this project.

    I had never thought of painting gourds we have them here, now I have to try.
