Announcement
Sandy Short www.handpaintedgourds.com is well known throughout the Southwest for Hand-Painted Gourd Ornament art. I have been painting for since I was 15 years old and have been accepted in many major and top juried arts and crafts fairs. I sell my hand-painted gourds and other artwork to many gift shops and galleries throughout the country. I have a degree in Fine Arts and Graphic Design from New Mexico State University in Las Cruces. All of my designs are copyrighted, and I sign each piece.
*Due to the scarcity of gourds in the sizes I offer, I will be substituting with great bottle shaped gourds!

5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely perfect. This is such a beautiful ornament and a lovely rendering of the very magical town of Santa Fe. Sandy is easy to work with and extremely responsive. Highly recommend her work.

4 out of 5 starsPurchased Taos Pueblo ornament, artist favorite size @ 3”. While general description for any of the gourd ornaments included a note saying sizes & shapes could vary, all of photos of Taos Pueblo were round gourds so I was surprised when I received a long oblong gourd. I would liked to have been notified of this & wouldn’t have ordered it if I knew it was going to be a narrow oblong gourd. Because of the gourd shape I don’t think the Pueblo showed well. I hadn’t received a ship date notice & realized I wouldn’t receive it in posted timeframe. I contacted seller & she said she was behind. Again, it would have been nice if she had contacted me to let me know the ornament was arriving late. Overall not a great experience. I was so excited when I placed my order but when it arrived, disappointed in the product & customer service.
