Gourd Lamps make it easy for you to make your own beautiful gourd lamp because all the cutting and cleaning has been done for you!
 
Each Gourd Lamp comes as a kit that includes a base, lamp cord with on/off toggle switch, and LED bulb.

Shown above: Box of 3 Gourd Lamps, 7"-8.9" inches in diameter. Bases, cords, and bulbs included!
(Please note: These are 'Bargain Quality' gourds and may have small blemishes or shell markings.)

Beautiful gourd lamp by Zekiye Michals.

Each Craft-Ready Gourd Lamp comes with the hole pre-drilled in the bottom to make your gourd fit snugly over the base so light does not seep through. We custom order the included LED bulb, which is very small yet produces extremely bright light, yet still has a tiny heat output so as not to cause fire danger.
 
The gourds are completely cleaned inside and out, and cut on the top so that light can shine upwards as well as through your designs on the body of the gourd.
 
The base provides the lamp with stability and is hidden from view so as not to take away from your beautiful lamp design!

"I just wanted to take this time to let you know how excited and pumped I am. This is the first time that I have used the transparent dies and I am so amazed at the difference in my colors. It's brought a spark back into my heels and a whole lot of spark into my gourd work. Thank you for having the quality of products that you do and I hope you can keep up with the demands. Thanks for always being there and having the quality that I trust in." - Willie Yepez

Shown above, 20 colors available in the GourdMasterTM Transparent Acrylic line. These last a long time. One half-ounce bottle of dye will cover over 100 gourds in the 5"- 6" diameter size range!

Watch the video above to see how to use Transparent Acrylics to make this gorgeous southwest-themed gourd vase.

We love this gorgeous vase by Lori Smith! As in the video shown above, the horse designs are from the Stick 'n Burn pack, "Southwest Animal Motifs."

The Southwest Animal Motifs Stick 'n Burn pack features beautiful, southwest-inspired designs such as geckos, horses, hens and more!

With GourdMaster Transparent Acrylics you get the rich colors and work-ability you might find in an acrylic paint, combined with the wonderful, semi-transparent look of an ink dye. It's like having the best of both worlds!

Being pigment based, they are more viscous than Ink Dye so you can actually apply them with a paint brush and the color stays where you put it without bleeding!

Fabulous lidded gourd vessel made from a Canteen Gourd, by Ines Atkerson! Ines used GourdMaster Transparent Acrylics to achieve the beautiful blue-green color on her gourd. Thank you, Ines, for sharing your artwork with us on Facebook!
