Can anyone direct me to a good site, or tell me how from experience, to properly dry out gourds. I'd like to do the birdhouse, as well as other things, would just like to know how to do this and any tips, ideas, crafts etc that someone might know-
Thanks tons,
Erica  |

can you email me and I'll send along some of the pictures to you.
I'm trying to get Naomi to start an etsy storefront and maybe a regular website to showcase some of her handmade gourds and other crafted items. but drop me an email and I'll zap some of the pictures over to you.

here is a website to help you out.it talks about drying the gourds..
http://www.amishgourds.com/site/1278922/page/456714
also..my daughter has been crafting gourds now for about 3-4 yrs. she can share a few ideas with you on how to clean them, and also how to decorate them. She placed several ribbons last year in the Florida Gourd Society Show that was held in Palatka, FL..a really nice/big event with gourd crafters from all over showing and selling gourds and holding crafting sessions. There are quite a number of gourd societies across the nation and it can be an addictive hobby.
