Traveling Work Station

Many gourd enthusiasts like to work on their craft with others, either at gourd patch meetings or when visiting other like-minded individuals. How to set up a convenient work space?  Gourdacious Dappled Apples gourd patch member showed up to a recent monthly project day with a handy dandy solution she whipped up for the occasion.  A portable work station!

Made of a wooden breakfast tray she got at a flea market or thrift store, she zip-tied a power strip to one side, and a clamp-on light at the other end. She took out her work station, plugged it in, and BAM! she was in business!

This was the day when we were using melted Crayon to make snowflake designs on egg gourds for ornaments. All her tools and materials stayed within reach and, as you can see, the ornament looks great!
