Here hard shell gourds have been transformed into several decorative styles. They have been divided into galleries by theme; some of them will fall into different galleries. All of the available gourds are for sale. I also take orders for custom gourds; however a deposit is needed on all orders. If you see something you like please feel free to contact me. I use a variety of media: carving, pyrographyed, watercolor dyes and acrylics. In most cases the different media are mixed together on the same gourd.

Thank you for visiting the Decorative Gourd.
As I look back over the events of this year and the last few months, I am thankful for the new friends I have met, the Gourd Shows I was able to attend, and the ribbons I was able to win in competition.
The last few months have been very hard for a lot of people in my area and in our Michigan Gourd Society.
May your load be lightened and the roads you travel have few hills.
