Looking at all the Rose Scholar events that I attended, carving night lights out of the dried gourds was my favorite event. I think I learned a skill that can be used to create beautiful gifts for people I care about. When Graham Ottoson showed us samples of the night lights, I thought it would be difficult to make such delicate designs just using drilling tools of different sizes. However, when I started making my own night lights, I realized that even with simple designs, these night lights could make amazing patterns. Also, I really enjoyed observing other people’s gourd night light designs. In the future, I hope Graham visits Cornell again and introduce different skills that are used when carving the dried gourds.
