Ornament WIP

I'm painting a few ornaments for giveaways and listing on ebay today. Should have them finished today.

Also these two Fall Pumpkin Gourdie-Do's are listed on ebay and will end Friday.
These are two of the four pieces that were on the PFATT Marketplace. I thought they were sold but..........I'm not telling that story.
So they are now listed on Ebay at a reduced price with free shipping.

Here Are A Few Of My Favorite Things

GOURDS!!!! Yeah I know, I'm a freak, but a harmless one! You would not believe how many raw gourds I have. I am a greedy little Gourdqueen!
I get so excited when a box of gourds arrive. I can't wait to look at each one and then put them in their special containers. Hey it doesn't take much!
This is the latest box I received. They came from Kansas from a very dear friend who grows the most incredible gourds in the world. You can find her on Ebay under seller name Kgourd.

These are coyote gourds and small bottle gourds. I use these for making ornaments.

These are cannonball gourds and I use these for making Gourdie-Do's.
Here are a few of my supplies that go along with turning my gourds into whatever comes to mind.


These are just a few of my favorite things............................down in the Gourdqueen's Dungeon.

Humpty Gourd Santa

If I could write fun poems I would write one that would be titled, "Humpty Gourd Santa". I'm not sure it would be "G" rated! The words that came out of my sugar coated mouth were not for sensitive ears.
He was sitting on the mantel and I picked him up and simply DROPPED him!!! I can put him back together but it won't be pretty. I have been wanting a gourd Santa!

Any of you that have never seen the inside of a gourd, well now you have! Need some seeds?
