Now its easier than ever to make amazing, personalized gifts with our ready-to-craft, pre-cut and cleaned Oil Lamp Gourds and our NEW craft-ready Votive Gourds.
NEW! Craft-Ready Votive Gourds!
Now you can create a beautiful gourd votive the quick and easy way using Craft-Ready Votive Gourds!* Each gourd is hand selected, cleaned inside and out, custom-fitted with a 
glass, bell-shaped votive holder, and sanded on the bottom so it sits flat (if it does not sit flat on its own).
All that’s left for you to do is the fun part of decorating! Create cut-out designs so the light shines through or decorate as is. The perfect solution for quick and easy gourd gifts!
Each gourd comes with its own glass votive insert and is ready for crafting. Note: No-Wax Candle or regular candle sold separately.
