Wine Cask Gourd

Class description

What a fun way to served bagged wine or other beverages! We sell these in wine country Colorado and can't keep them in stock. Inspired by actual grape leaves, your placement will create an almost invisible opening.

For this intermediate class, you will use your gourd jigsaw to make intricate cuts, and your wood burner to outline the design before painting.

We will supply an extra large cleaned kettle gourd; refillable beverage bag and gasket; paints and dyes; paintbrushes; grape leaves.

What you are required to bring

We will have tools available to borrow but to avoid waiting, you may bring your own gourd jigsaw; wood burner; clean out tools and drill; dust mask; eye protection (prescription or safety glasses).
