Next Step in my Gourd Project

The wood burning is complete and the lid is cut...this is the removal of the lid... Ok..so this is really ugly...you have to wear a mask and scrape out the old dried pulp and seeds.

This is a view of the inside of the lid...uggggllly! But just you wait and see how awesome it is when I scrape and sand and paint it...:)

This is a close up of the design that I carved in to the gourd with a wood burning tool.

The bottom after the carving of the design

This is the design on the other side.
