Flag Story

# StrengthinUnity

Thank you!
From our family to yours

 

Please enjoy displaying your flag the way it was built,
with PRIDE and RESPECT!

Like most, 2020 was tough for me.  On top of COVID, my Dad’s health suddenly became an issue.  Simply put, he is my hero, role model and person I look up to the most. Needless to say, him not doing well was beyond difficult.  I needed something productive to keep my mind in a positive place. For me there’s always been something special about building things by hand, so a project was exactly what I needed.  But what?

Trying to represent my emotions with something made of wood would not be easy.  But I am truly blessed to be supported by a group of amazing people. People with common traits: faith, love, compassion, strength, grit and resilience. People that understand working together for a common goal makes you unstoppable.  There it was, my project. The American Flag, the symbol that represents all of those things.

Flags are built in our makeshift garage workshop / driveway, and we pour our hearts into every one.  We respect what it represents, and the people who sacrificed to make it that way.  My wife and son were part of my inspiration, and now they are both involved in the creation process.  We hand select wood looking for unique grain patterns, cut and rip the boards ourselves, meticulously sand then burn the wood grain with a handheld torch, stain each board and ultimately hand carve all 50 stars into the union.  Each flag is truly unique with its own story to tell, just like the folks receiving them.  Please enjoy knowing that it was handmade with a strong family connection and a desire to bring great people together!

I hope our story makes your flag even more special.  We’d love your feedback and stories about your flag, email us at info@turnerwoodworking.com.  If you received your flag as a gift, please consider paying it forward and purchasing a flag for the special people in your life!  Visit turnerwoodworking.com to view all available options and order flags today.

One last thing… My Dad and Mom proudly display the original flag I built at their home.  Dad’s feeling better each day and I’m looking forward to him making a guest appearance to help create a flag very soon!

Take care and God bless... 
The Turner Family
