I’ve never seen a gourd purse in real life, but this book tells you how to make one. Other items you can learn to make from gourds include bowls, baskets, sculptures, birdhouses, clocks, luminaries, vessels, boxes, ornament trees and centerpieces. Pretty amazing. I never realized our gourd friends were that versatile.

Glorious Gourd Decorating also explains how to grow, choose, dry, clean and cut your gourds. There’s not much it doesn’t cover. Many patterns are included. You just bring your gourds and tools to the party.

Have you ever tried gourd decorating?
