NEW! LED Bulbs for Gourd Lamps
3 pack for Just $14.95!

These LED bulbs are very small yet produce an extremely bright light. (We like them small because we found the larger ones sit too high and do not light up the bottom of the art, plus they can “stick out” on the top).

We love them not only for the amount of light they produce but also because they have a very low heat output so they won't cause any kind of fire danger. Designed to fit our Gourd Lamp Hardware Kit or any lamp socket that fits a Candelabra (E12) bulb.

See the image above for an example of how the light bulbs can be used with our Gourd Hardware Kits and Open Top Gourd Lamp Kits!
