"The Fili-Point Burr is awesome! The cutting action is powerful and smooth, like cutting through butter, so it leaves a clean edge - this means less sanding for me (always a good thing!). From tiny filigree holes to larger cut-outs, this burr easily does it all!" - Mary Gehley
The Fili-Point Burr is a double-coated diamond burr that tapers to a fine point allowing you to create amazing carvings on any gourd (yes, even the thickest Welburn gourds!)
We named this burr the"Fili-Point" burr because it is designed specifically for creating micro-filigree and large filigree.

Offer ends Monday, 1/2/23 at midnight.
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.

I have painted six of them and hope to paint more before Christmas. Welburn is my go to for my gourd supplies. Thank you." -Pam Price Reffitt

"I just want to thank everyone down at the Welburn Farm for all your hard work... with the growing, the turning, the harvesting, the cleaning, the packing of orders, the customer service... and so on! Creating gourd art has changed my life and enhanced it in so many ways. Thank you for the work you do, so that artists can have such a wonderful “canvas” to work with! I’ve been a loyal customer since around 2000 and will continue to be. (PS. I love the ornaments!) Happy Holidays to you all!" -Diann

'Limited Edition' Craft-Ready Challenge Box!
Reg. $69.95, Now Just $54.95 with $4.95 Flat Rate Shipping!*
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.
Erin Ridley created this beautiful dot art pattern on her gourd bowl.
These lovely gourd bowls are by Mary-Ella Bowles.
These cute snowmen gourds are by Barbara Duquette-Fabian. Thank you, Barbara, for sharing your artwork with us on Facebook!
Beautiful gourd with birchwood trees, by Aline Hoffman. Cut-out designs such as this can be an excellent choice for those “challenge” gourds that may have some shell blemishes.

An easy way to light your lamp is with a string of fairy lights. We like the ones that charge with a USB plug in. The set of 2 shown above is only $9.99 on Amazon at the time of this writing.

Fabulous gourd art painted with GourdMasterTM Metallic Inks by Grace Anne Swanson!
Holiday Best Sellers!
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.
