- Interior cleaning tools which may include long kitchen utensil, melon baller, or leather scraper
- Drill gun and 5/32 drill bit (size of bit depends on thickness of hanging material)
- Cutting tools which may include utility knife, keyhole saw, and/or jig saw
- High grit sandpaper
- Hanging material of choice (2 ft. long about)
- Exterior Polyurethane (spray or paint on)

It looks like a fun thing to do. I want to plant gourds this year to make some but I think I will do some stamping on the gourd before I seal it
