Gloria's gourd art is made by using many mediums. From woodburning, carved, painted, dyed and more. Embellishments of different things include seagrass, pine needles, beads, stones, feathers and other things. Each gourd is unique in its own form. It is from nature, so no two are alike and each has its own imperfections. I will change it from a gourd to a piece of art. Hope you like the gourds as much as I do. Enjoy.
