These people gourds are some of the nicest gourds we have available! Because of this, we have limited quantities available, and they sell out fast, so grab them while you can! If you're looking for people gourds with beautiful shells, no cracks and minimal shell blemishes, then these are the ones for you. Our gourds are known for their lovely, natural markings. These are NOT considered shell blemishes but are part of the natural beauty of the gourd.
The Ornament-Size People Gourd box is great for those looking for a smaller size option of people gourds. They are 2"-2.9" in diameter and 4"-7" tall. You can use these gourds for ornaments, small figurines, petite vases and more!
People gourds make great ornaments as well! Take a look at the ornaments to the right made by Christy Barajas!
See some artwork featuring these gourds below:
Dusti Lockey turned this small people gourd into a beautiful ornament.
Sue Sweder created this wonderful dragonfly ornament.
We love this adorable Easter bunny design made by Diane Wilson Kemp!
Shown above: Box of 8 Gourds 3"-3.9" diameter (6"-11.9" tall)
These gourds will be a wonderful addition for those looking for a tall, narrow canvas. They will be perfect for vases, figures, and more!

(Gourd ring stands sold separately)
Shown above, small “People Gourd” on a Gourd Ring Stand, before and after being cut into a vase. (Note: This is an example of what can be done with small People Gourds. Gourds are sold uncut).
People Gourds have a slight point at the bottom so you will want to sand them on a belt sander so they sit flat, or you can use a Gourd Ring Stand like the gourds shown above.
Tip: To make Gourd Ring Stands, use a People Gourd and cut into rings about 3/4" tall. This will give enough room in the stand for the rounded bottom of your gourd so your gourd stands straight.
Plus the Gourd Ring Stand can be colored with GourdMaster™ Ink Dyes or Transparent Acrylics to match your gourd art!
A hybrid of the chili gourd or banana gourd, these "People Gourds" are so-named because they are so popular for making figurines and sculptures!
Their tall canvas makes them ideal for vertical designs. Shown right, the small vase with hearts was created by Dianne Connelly from a small People Gourd!
Most people gourds have the same thick shells as other Welburn gourds, so you can carve intricate designs in them like Claudia did in the gourd shown below!
