Please note: These items are made using real branches and live edge walnut, meaning they bear unique knots + limbs that make each set one of a kind. No two are alike. The stands were cut from one piece of live edge walnut, they vary in length.
Horse hair is donated by a neighbor, trimmed from her beloved animals in Wallowa, Oregon.
About the turkey: Sage personally handled all of this wild turkey. It lived a wild life that was taken—but not without gratitude and intention. Not a single bit went to waste.
Caring for the brushes: Hand wash with a gentle soap, reshape, and allow to dry. The handles are waxed and will occasionally require a reapplication of wax or oil, once fully dry.
Caring for the wood: Finished in a food grade walnut oil. Wipe clean. Never submerge in water. Re-apply oil as needed to preserve wood and maintain luster.

About the turkey:
My partner, Josh, and I personally handled all of this wild turkey. It lived a wild life that was taken
-But not without gratitude and intention. Not a single bit went to waste.
I plucked its feathers and salted them-kept them for a year, waiting until I had good use for them. The meat was frozen, roasted, and put in our soups.
The bones we turned into broth. Left overs were rendered and added to our dogs’ homemade meals (I know I'm nuts, but I literally cook them a pot of their own food).
Anything we couldn't use, we "offered" back to the bears and coyotes and other animals that come down to the river near our home.—Sage
