In this exciting and hands-on class, students will unleash their creativity by making a water bottle and a cup from a bottle gourd. In the class we will learn a little of the cultivating of these gourds, harvesting, processing and then creating these into wonderful work of useable art. Students will have time to personalize their creations with paint designs or experiment with woodburning. A wide variety of stencils will be readily available, allowing students to add an extra touch of artistry to their cups and bottles.

We will go over the following:

• Use of tools

• Safety practices

• Wood Burning

• Finishing techniques

Come learn a skill for life!
