Lovely gourd lamp by Marcia Bergeson! We love the fili-gree style carving surrounding the silhouette of the tree! Thank you, Marcia, for sharing your artwork with us on Facebook!

Adorable Easter themed gourd art by Diane Wilson Kemp! Diane, writes in her post, "10% off special now $31.50 SWEET EASTER BUNNY is a hand painted gourd, just in time for spring and Easter. She has a big pink bow around her neck with a pretty flower and colorful Easter eggs painted on the grass she is sitting on. The words "Easter blessings" written on the side and a big beige bow attached to the top with a removable pink chick and colorful confetti. She sits on a wooden heart with green grass. On the back is my signature mouse. I hand brush 2 coats of varnish for protection and then I add my personal hang tag with interesting information about the gourd."

Letters from Customers

"Dear Welburn Gourd Farmers, I'm excited to receive the Formula 49, ink dyes, and jewelry gourds and look forward to getting started with them.
I've grown and decorated gourds over the years, and learned a lot from watching your videos. These products and videos will help step up my game.
Visiting your farm is on my To Do List. I have a strong yearning to set in a field and commune with the gourds. I imagine this would be a very spiritual and healing experience. When I first moved to Oregon an elderly neighbor gave me the gift of a moldy gourd, and told me it was up to me to find it's treasures. That was the beginning. Thanks for all your help and especially for farming gourds." -Saundra

***************************

"The formula 49 was a great investment. I can’t believe what a difference it made when using the… Ink. I will be buying this product again😉" - W.J.Napioer

"Love the Formula 49... the fact that it will almost completely remove ink dye is a reason alone to call it a great product, not to mention how well it works to blend the inks. I just wish it came in a bigger bottle!" -Gloria Crane, Gourd Artist and Instructor
