Get $25.00 Off the 'Limited Edition' Craft-Ready Challenge Box!
Reg. $69.95, Now Just $44.95!
Offer ends Friday, 1/6/23 at midnight.
Shown above, 15 Craft-Ready Challenge gourds, 2.5”-5.9” in diameter and 2.5”- 12” tall.
This ‘Limited Edition’ Craft-Ready Challenge Box is similar to our regular Challenge Box in that it offers discounted gourds with some kind of flaw or imperfection that will challenge your creativity and spark new ideas. The difference is, all these gourds are pre-cut and cleaned both inside and out so you can get right to the fun of creating!
These are great gourds with thick shells that did not qualify to go in our other boxes either because the cut or bottom sanding was too crooked (see photo for examples), or because of some shell flaw or a small hole at the bottom where the stem got knocked out during sanding.

Shown above, 2 fabulous gourd art pieces painted with GourdMasterTM Metallic Inks by Grace Anne Swanson! Be sure to check out Grace's gourd art for sale in the Gourd Art Marketplace!
Accent your gourd art with a splash of brilliant color! Use Metallic Inks for durable, reflective color that is long lasting and will not fade, chip, or peel off your gourd surface.
As with the regular Gourd Ink Dyes, they are alcohol-free and are specially formulated to provide a rich color that withstands time. Thicker than the regular Gourd Ink Dyes, the Metallic Gourd Inks are applied using a paintbrush or Fine Tip Applicator and go on as a solid, opaque color (no transparency). Mix well before applying.
