Let it dry one hour or until completely dry to the touch. If you can see the gourd coming through you can paint another coat and let dry another hour..

You will only need a little on your brush because this will go far. Brush lightly over all the gourd giving it a pretty gold accent. This gold accent makes the gourd!! It adds such flavor and uniqueness so this gold paint is a MUST!


Free hand or use the bird image guide above and trace the bird on to the gourd in pencil.
Green Gourd




Then you will use the same “Real Brown” color of paint or a darker brown paint and do the same branches all over the gourd. This is the same technique we used on the last bird gourd.
Orange Gourd with Gold polka dots
Last is the orange and gold pumpkin. This one is my favorite and most simple. This is a craft pumpkin from Joann Fabrics and NOT a real gourd. I used a darker orange and painted the whole pumpkin. Let dry and added polka dots with the same gold paint. This gold is like mirrors all over the pumpkin. I just LOVE this gold. Then I paint the stem.

You’re finished with your three! You can seal them with a clear Matte or Gloss sealer to help protect them and give them that nice finish. These will make your Fall and Thanksgiving table decoration and will definitely be a conversation piece!
Happy fall Gourd painting!
