I can't guarantee that you can find dried sagebrush, but a visit to the dried flower section of a large arts and crafts shop like Michaels or Hobby Lobby (we have no idea where you live or whether there are ny stores like that near you, but they are national chains in the US) will usually turn up some dried plants that might suit your needs.


[#welcome] By the way, welcome to the forum. One tip, on future requests you'll always get better response if you make the title of the post more specific. I realize this was just a introductory post on your part, so I'm not trying to be critical.

One other idea, if you have time go to the "Profile" section (see the blue bar above) and fill in some basic info about yourself. Sometimes people answering posts check the profile on people to help understand the needs that the original poster may be asking about (newbie, scale, location, etc). It's not a requirement, just a suggestion.

Regards

Hi jimmyjj; Welcome to the forms. On your question. I'd look at the craft stores. Also flower shops. I make mine in HO out of copper wire, furnace filter fiber, and ground foam.

Stop in the coffee shop. The first cups on the house and the food is not all that bad.
