Shipping Information,
international orders, guarantee and returns
I have started growing my own
gourds in limited amounts and varieties and occasionally I get a good deal
on some gourds and will have enough to share. Some of these have
already been cleaned and some have not. As I get dry gourds I will
make them available to our customers. Please check out our dried gourd page

the smooth application of color without any dripping or running. The

with any surface irregularities, resulting in a smoother more complete
coverage. Dabbing produces a beautiful "mottled" effect. Save on

later.

INK APPLICATOR CUBE - FELT
This convenient one inch
square dry felt ink pad is a great size for travel, or for using your ink
refill to stamp any color of your choice. When new it is dry, add about 10
drops of ink to your pad and work it into the top of the pad.
You will see the ink seep into the felt in about 5 minutes. Simply apply
several drops of dye to the foam surface, and apply to the gourd for smooth
streak free color. To blend and even out the color intensity, try going over
the dyed surface with the foam pad using a patting motion. The will ink will
last a long time in this applicator. I suggest you write the color on
the top with a marker so you know what the color is later. When you
are finished using the applicator cube simply close the cover to save
the remaining dye for a future use. By storing the cube upside down the dye
will remain at the top of the pad, ready for the next use.
