What are you going to do with your bushel gourds?
If you cut a circle shape out of wood you could have the barrel sit in it for balance. They could be made to be relatively inconspicuous and with three 'feet' would balance anywhere.@so lucky , I'm not sure yet. They're too big to be birdhouses. The bottoms aren't flat enough to sit nicely either. If I cut it in half, I could have two big bowls to use for decoration or something.
Here is one of my personal favorites taken from this POW by Carol Dee and graciously gifted to me to enjoy forever:View attachment 9291
Son just finished the barn wood frame that matches the fencing in the background. Thank YOU, Carol Dee, so very much!
o.k. waiting patiently....Thanks, @Smart Red . I don't know that my camera could do it justice really. The petals had a neat shimmer to them in person. I particularly love the ruffled edges on the blooms. It is unusually fancy for any of the gourds I have grown.

Sorry, I did get busy today and forgot to get a pic for you @Carol Dee . Tomorrow!
