    That is damn adorable and I bet you could sell them...my youngest daughter would love it she loves all her pets but her horse is in some ways her best friend.

    This is the best wreath I have seen this season! Love love love it. The boughs that you have used strategically give it movement and dimension. What did you make the harness out of ...a belt?

    The halter is a 1/2" scrap of faux leather with a tooled leather texture. The medalion on it is a beaded piece my mother made years ago. I knew I would find the perfect use for it someday. This was perfect. BTW- can't reverse the picture not sure why it is reversed for some of you. Appears right side up to me.

    Yes, you did do a good job. I imagine you'll be able to sell quite a few of them.
