This beach themed gourd project, brought to you by BFCreations and Bernadette's Gourd Creations, gives you lessons in: power carving, power sanding, woodburning, dyeing with alcohol inks, decorative coiling techniques with sea grass, gluing real shells to a carved gourd, and making some cool texture with real sand.
Purchase a finished "Shells on Seashore" carved gourd, as well as other gourd creations from my Etsy shop: http://bfgourdcreations.etsy.com
