WELCOME! I LOVE GOURDS! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM. THE WAY THEY LOOK, FEEL, AND EVEN THE WAY THEY SMELL. OK NOW THAT I MADE MYSELF SOUND LIKE A WEIRDO....IF YOU ARE STILL READING THIS....I FIRST SAW A GOURD CRAFTED INTO A HANGING LAMP WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I VACTIONED IN MEXICO. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL(AND EXPENSIVE) BUT I BOUGHT. I INTENDED TO MAKE ONE OF MY OWN. I NEVER HAVE BUT I HAVE MADE A LOT OF OTHER FUN WORKS OF ART. I THINK GOURDS ARE A GREAT MEDIUM TO WORK WITH. ENJOY!

Burning Ring of Fire


This was such a pretty gourd...then upon closer examination....there was a big crack running from the stem to the middle of the gourd.  ARGGHHHH!  Just like life sometimes you just have to get a different perspective.  Once I did that, the flames began to emerge.  Thus the burning ring of fire.....you can almost hear Johnny Cash.
