Hi Monica!
The very 1st bird house gourd that I made, after cleaning out the innards, I hung it out on the front porch so the wind could finish blowing out dust and other small particles. Within 2 days, we had Ma & Pa Carolina Wren decide that it was there new home. They've been raising families on our front porch for almost 7 years now and it's still not decorated.
Oh well, as long as the Wrens are happy with it! LOL
As far as sanding them is concerned...sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. It mostly depends on whether or not I can find the sand paper, seriously!

Today 12:03 pm Those gourd are very lovely. With the right shape you could paint a hen!
Thank You!
I've actually been contemplating how well feathers would do to make a gourd chicken...
Found some of my wire wrapped pieces and a few necklaces but will have to wait until Skip gets back and can take pix of them for me...can't use the Olympus one-handed.
