Brittany L.
"This is my literal interpretation of a "hand turkey." As you can see, she enjoys feasting on human hands. Her favorite delicacy is a HAND-which and her weapons of choice are turkey carving tools."

Harrington H.
"Sheldon A. Turkey. A rockin' turkabilly, who loves a good party and diggs the chicks."

Jennifer S.
"My turkey hand is to honor The Day of The Dead. I find the beauty of sugar skulls very fascinating. I simply adore the life it brings to something as morbid as a skull, or the idea of death. It shows you that life, does, go on through death."

Kelly A.
"My Frankenstein turkey is getting cooked to life with lightening!"

Bridget H.
"My hand turkey is not a local. She is not really up on what the whole Thanksgiving thing is about. I guess she’ll figure it out sooner or later...."

Anika B.
"I was influenced by collage and Mexican folk art. I used mixed media, including paper, feathers and paint."


Rachael S.
"This turkey is proud to be different! Like Sourpuss, he's original, colorful, creative, and from outside of the box (even though he's made from boxes)."

Rachel L.
"The picture background is a Sourpuss t-shirt. I used a variety of different sizes of safety pins, grommets, spikes, and other miscellaneous objects in forming the turkey. It represents Cali style tats, heavy metal, and an undying fight for individuality. The dead seahorse is an actual dead seahorse skeleton."

Erin C.
"This turkey is one bad son of a b*tch! He likes to hang out in alleys and party with lady birds. Live fast, gobble hard."

Heather R.
"This is Gary Gobbles, he is made entirely out of 100% raw wool batting and is needle felted by hand, where a barbed needle is poked repeatedly into wool until it forms the desired shape and firmness. He is wearing the Sourpuss "Sink or Swim Trapper Hat" and "Sink or Swim Scarf" in black and white. His dark brown feathers form a hand."



Jillian G.
"I made my hand turkey with a psychobilly, zombie flare inspiration. Bits and pieces put together from other turkeys, like a Bird of Frankenstein. Of course she is showing off her Sourpuss Clothing. :)"

Anne C.
"My design is a 'Zombie Turkey-Hand,' which is basically what would happen if Frankenstein's creator wanted to combine a hand and a turkey. Weird!
It's also wearing a variation of the Kreepsville 'Dead Girl' ring."

Scott E.
"Tom the turkey thinks Sourpuss Clothing rocks and hopes to convince them to start a line of clothing that focuses on clients with wings!"


Brad U.
" "Blue, The Bone-Gobbler" roams your local cemeteries and devours all lost souls who still wander aimlessly. He also rocks the F#*K out in his spare time. All the way to hell and back!"
Courtney M.
"Please put your hands together for the latest Sourpuss model, Trixie the Turkey! With her bright Manic Panic colored feathers, she looks a treat on the runway in the latest accessories. She is showing off her Bunny wrist cuff, Kreepsville knuckle necklace and Kreepsville cleaver purse. Get yours now!"

Jeanne B.
"I decided to make turkey shaped sugar cookies."

Chris R.
"My hand turkey is a ZOMBIE HAND TURKEY! He was supposed to be dinner, but rose from the dead Thanksgiving morning! He craves stuffing instead of brains, but dangerous nonetheless!"

Becka M.
"This is "dinner". My beer can hand turkey.
He is proudly sporting his flaming crown and his bloody gobbler, in hopes that someone will think he's so cute they will eat the tater tots instead of him."

Larissa R.
"My Hand Turkey thinks turkeys are too mainstream, so she decided to be a pin-up peacock!"

Amanda P.
"This is my hand turkey. She is all ready for thanksgiving, not just ready to be eaten!"

Andrea N.
"Meet Turkey The Crumbling-ArmBiter. He is a lonely guy for the most part, seeking attention in the most unlikely places. I made this hand turkey using a Kreepsville Horror Hand patch that Sourpuss sells online."

Tiffany P.
"Lola is no sour puss, contrary to her awesome clothes from Sourpussclothing.com! Don't try to pull her off the table, it's where she has the most fun! Lola is wearing a Sailors Rose Girl Tee, Dickies Skinny Red Jeans and a Voodoo Skull bow clip!"

Frank E. & Cassandra C.
"I love Frankenstein and I love turkey! So I decided to create Turkiestein!"

Scott E. & Kelly C.
"Tabitha the Turkey is on her way to thanksgiving dinner. However, She really can't wait 'till Cyber Monday, so she can check out the coolest website ever... Sourpussclothing.com!"

Katie R.
"My turkey is a girl who doesn't care what people think. She has tattoos, loves her skull barrette and everything else sourpuss has to offer. She always has her fishnets on to make her feel sexy! She has awesome colorful hair, bright makeup and she loves to stand out in a crowd!"

Charlene J.
"This here is Lucille. She's the baddest mother-plucker on the farm. She only wears Sourpuss Clothing on her fab, fierce feathers. Right now, she's modeling the brand-spanking new Galley Ho Anchor Apron, with matching oven mitt. She'll definitely look her best this Thanksgiving while roasting a human."

Stephanie W.
"Ronda is a Rockabilly hand turkey. She is the envy of all the other turkeys for her amazing style. She only shops at sourpussclothing.com. All the female turkeys want to be her and all the male turkeys want to be with her."


Amanda M.
"A nuclear power plant turkey."

Dawn S. & Gaia S.
