You have heard of a grab
bag, well this will be a Gourd Bag. A box of surprises that will be sent
to you and one that you will send out to aname drawn for you! [of course
you have to enter first]
Your "Gourd Bag" MUST contain
a Minimum of 3 different items and they Must be Gourd Related Items.
Something one might be able to embellish on a gourd or to use in gourding.
--- Can be more than 3 items, whatever
your heart desires, but
Must have at least 3 items.
If possible, try to send
one item that is "Native to Your state", that can be used as an embellishment
or incorporated into gourd art. -- 2nd., 3rd. or More items can also be
of the above nature or can be other gourd
related items that your
partner Can Use. [no junky items, please] Quantity of each item should
be enough to do something with. Example: 1 devils claw would be sufficient,
but one or two pine needles would
not.
No photos for this exchange.
