Gourd arts and crafts involve creating functional and decorative items from dried gourds. Gourd can be crafted using techniques similar to those used with wood. They can be pyroengraved (woodburned), painted, carved and embellished to create birdhouses, pots, musical instruments and many other ornamental objects.
