In this class you'll learn how to design and carve a section of "filigree" into the gourd surface and will have the option of adding design elements such as butterflies, dragonflies, etc. You'll try different carving methods and burs and should complete at least one section in class.
*Students should bring a gourd of any size or shape that is reasonably thick for carving. The gourd should be cut open, cleaned and painted inside ahead of time.
Students should bring a Dremel, Foredom or other similar rotary tool, and any burs you have on hand. Bring a good quality dust mask. Riffler files, sanding sticks, and drill bits are helpful if you have them but not necessary.
(Carving burs, hand tools, and dust masks will also be available for purchase if needed.)
Class is limited to 20 students.
Students please bring prepared gourd as described, rotary tool and mask.
