We sometimes grow gourds here, Jilly, and often use them when dry to make different kinds and sizes of bird houses. I like them for water dippers.
ReplyDeleteThey looked so pretty. I saw some plants that grew in the shape of gourds.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is just so beautiful, great pictures again!
ReplyDeleteI like having gourds in the house for autumn decorations but I've never seen them painted like this before. Its a good idea :)
ReplyDeleteI have a friend back in Georgia who paints gourds. This is such a beautiful photo. You always stumble into the perfect photo opportunity or you must always be looking at life like the perfect photo!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot, Jilly. I've never seen gourds used this way.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen painted gourds used as decoration. They are very pretty. Excellent detail photo, Jilly.
ReplyDeleteI agree with some of the other comments, Jilly: you have a good eye for detail. Shame the gourd was lifted back into position.
ReplyDeleteI also find it sad that they are painted: I like the shape and the texture just as they come naturally. But then ... I am not into spraying pinecones red and green and silve either. Each is own I guess ...
