Our friend, artist Laura Holland is a North Carolina native who has had a successful career in the furniture industry but has always loved the arts. She has always painted but most recently with the addition of her first grandchild , she really took it to another level by painting a mural on the nursery walls. She loves natural things so her foray into hand painted gourds was the perfect medium and we are sure they will be people pleasers and ornaments to collect and pull out every year like little treasures. She started with Grinch inspired gourds and has now expanded her collection to snowmen, cowboys and college themes at our request. Most are 4 to 5 inches long while a few are shorter and more full figured! Incredible detail and artistry. All are one of a kind. Grown and made in USA.
