"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." - Gloria Crane, Gourd Artist and Instructor.
GourdMaster™ Formula 49 is a ‘must have’ item for gourders! Use it to dilute or lighten Ink Dye
or Transparent Acrylic colors or even to remove the colors if you’ve made a mistake!
Formula 49 is also perfect for blending colors together for a smooth transition from one color to the next.
Shown above, beautiful gourd art by Sue Sweder! Sue is well-known for her vibrant colors and
beautiful carvings incorporated in her gourd art. She likes to mix GourdMasterTM colors using Formula 49.
Incredible carved and painted Canteen gourd, by Nancy Foster. Thank you, Nancy, for sharing your artwork with us. Here is what Nancy writes in her post:
"I have finally completed another carved gourd project which I started over a year ago. It is a canteen gourd from Welburn. I changed my plans to include deep carving once I had the gourd cut in two pieces and saw how thick it was. I’ve included progress photos.
The color is Gourdmaster ink dyes and transparent acrylics. I had to use a lot of Formula 49 to “water down” the intense colors since the carved gourd surface is so porous. It also has pyrography details. The finish is a spray acrylic varnish. The inspiration is a Trailing Black-Eyed Susan variety called ‘Spanish Eyes’ which actually has multiple colors of flowers (Thunbergia Alata ‘Spanish Eyes’)." - Nancy Foster
"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
We love this piece by Dee Hamlin! She achieved a wonderful range of greys by using GourdMasterTM Ink Dyes "Pitch Black" and "White" with Formula 49! Thank you, Dee for sharing your artwork with us on Facebook!

Reg. $29.95 Just $24.95
Offer expires 1/7/22 at midnight.
We love this NEW Compact Professional Heat Tool! Unlike regular heat guns for craft use that may only last a few months, the Wagner Professional heat gun is durable and long lasting so you won’t have to keep replacing your heat tool!
“This [heat tool] is really nice! These Wagner tools are hard to get, but I’ve tried the other ones... the [cheaper] ones, and those don’t even last a year. The Wagner [heat tool] I have is 6 years old. Well worth the money.” - Dianne Connelly
The heat gun features a dual high (680°F/360°C) and low (450°F/230°C) temperature setting to accomplish countless DIY projects that require heat. It has three operating positions: palm, pencil and hands free. The heat gun includes multiple accessories to make your crafting ideas come to life. The included flare nozzle is ideal for applying heat in a wide, even pattern. The included reflector nozzle is ideal for shielding glass and other sensitive materials from heat. An 8” x 8” silicone mat comes with the kit to help protect your surface area from heat while crafting.
