Wonderful item…I’m so happy to have gotten it. As described and pictured and super-fast shipping. I have in my mind to do a diorama with an Alice in Wonderland theme and this will be the focal point. Thank you.

Kim, The bluebird is a nice addition to my other gourds and my husband likes it very much. I got it for him since he has been going under radiation treatments for his cancer. So far so good! Happy Easter to you and your husband.

Kim, Both rabbits are excellent as usual. They are a very nice addition to my collection. I only planned on buying one, but it said it was sold so I bought the other as well and am glad I have them both. We love rabbits and have had them as pets for years. I wish we could see you at a show in person, but it is unlikely. Take care and have a very Happy Easter!

Unique & Whimsical Folk Art Gourds

Welcome to Poplar Hollow Studio where folk art is created with gourds! Many of the gourds are grown on our PA farm. These creations include OOAK (one-of-a-kind) sweet old-fashioned santas and snowfolk, Halloween Jacks & witches, whimsical chickens & owls & vintage inspired moons to name a few.

Each piece is individually handpainted with meticulous attention to detail. Often I simply use the gourd in its original form/shape and paint it. Other pieces are mixed media creations where I incorporate hand-sculpted clay and wood with the gourd and use embellishments such as vintage style tinsel, charms and found objects. Each piece is given a handrubbed antique finish to give it an aged look and add to the old-fashioned charm.

A few gourds that are just too pretty to cover with paint I relinquish to my husband, Bob, to create beautiful pyroengraved and carved vessels and luminaries.

I am inspired by the beauty of nature that surrounds my country home & studio. The simplicity of country life on the farm, the changing seasons, an affinity for treasures from a bygone era and holiday traditions...these things are all celebrated in my work.

No two gourds are exactly alike...each is an original collectible, signed and dated. My wish...to light up a face...yours or a special someone...with my folk art.
