So I just got engaged last week and me and my fiancé are looking to do a save the date picture and she wants to write it on a elk shed and have us hold it. I do not have any elk sheds so was wondering if someone would give or I could buy one from them. I'm looking for one in pretty good condition with some brown on it if possible. Doesn't have to be huge. Rag horn would work. Looking for one soon as possible so next 2 weeks. Thanks!

JUST an idea - but maybe if she were to use removable/washable paint for the date instead (not really sure what she had in mind to begin with), someone might be more willing to let you guys BORROW a shed for photography purposes?

I would if I had any

good luck! Post up a pic if you guys get them done

good idea, might have it engraved & on a plack for display at the house. if i had one id get it to you. good luck on the shed but more importantly your married life.

If you're not opposed to buying one...

That sure is a pretty shed. For the price looks like a good way to go. Probably cutting it pretty close in wedding preperation terms. Get things like this done in a hurry and keep that fiance happy.

80 bucks for that shed is insane, I sold all my good one's that I wanted to sell or I could help you out.

jackmaster · « **Reply #10 on:** February 27, 2013, 03:58:01 PM »

pm trophyhunt

skidynastar33 · « **Reply #11 on:** February 27, 2013, 09:44:26 PM »

So do u think 80 for that shed iis insanely good price or bad price? At this point might just have to do that. Thanks for the replys and ideas. I think she would want to keep it after for sentimental purposes anyways.

I've got an older, decent sized rag horn that you could brown up with shoe polish.

PM me if interested.

I'm in Auburn.

If you are still in need I will hook you up with a 5 pt. PM me and we can work out a pickup time on Sat. I will be in Everett around 6 pm Saturday.
It's not as pretty as that 6 pt. in the picture though....but it is a good one.

$80 is pretty steep but it's something you and your fiance could keep if you wanted. Also, you're gonna have to be real lucky to borrow one that looks this nice. How excited will she be when you show up with an old 4 point raghorn?

NWBREW · « **Reply #15 on:** February 28, 2013, 10:10:04 AM »

I agree. 80 bucks is pretty cheap when you are talking about memories for a lifetime.

h20hunter · « **Reply #16 on:** February 28, 2013, 10:10:56 AM »

I bet the table arrangments will be more than $80........

What about a moose paddle?

blackveltbowhunter · « **Reply #18 on:** February 28, 2013, 10:21:55 AM »

Cool Idea.... wish I had thought of something like this for our wedding. My wife would have loved it as well

I have several I would let you have in good/great condition and free of charge, as long as you will post a pic of the finished product and pick it up. I could possibly make arraingements to get it there but no promises.. I can post pics of them if you like? Pm if interested

bucksbearsbeers · « **Reply #19 on:** February 28, 2013, 12:11:55 PM »

I have a friend in Cle Elum that said he has some you could look through and pick from...you'd have to drive to Cle Elum to pick it up though.

I'll pm you his number.

Thank you everyone who offered advice or a shed. Much appreciated! Got the one from Craigslist today. A little spendy but it is very nice! Have ideas to do some cool engravings on it and will be using it in our save the date picture that we are taking this weekend. I'll post some of things I do with it.

NWBREW · « **Reply #21 on:** March 06, 2013, 01:15:58 AM »

Good deal. 80 bucks is nothing when it has memories such as what you'll use it for. Money well spent in my eyes.

Date saved! For my meal, I'll have whatever is fanciest, unless there's ribs. Then I'll have the ribs.

Cool idea, btw. Cool shirts too! "I eat elk"
