Sales Sneak Peak

September 16, 2018December 28, 2024Kristian BeverlyLeave a comment

My day started with going to yard sales. Initially I wasn’t going out but my mom convinced me to go with her. I’m glad I did! These bookend will become jumps.

And I took better sales pictures for the bridles.

The first one is black with purple padding and faux rubber purple reins. It’s made to fit True North.

The second one is pony sized with purple padding.

In Which I Make Things

September 15, 2018December 28, 2024Kristian Beverly4 Comments

I’ve made a bunch of tack in the past two weeks.
I finished two saddles. I just need to add stirrups to the chocolate/brandy one.

Two bridles.

And BOOTS.

I used teeny tiny magnets that I’d recently bought. It took a few tries to figure out a way to get them to stay on. I’m going to a show in October and didn’t feel like fiddling around with tiny buckles. They actually work well.
I put the purple pair on Dundee. Doesn’t he look nice?

All of the tack minus the boots will be for sale. I’m hoping to post them here and on the facebook page by the end of the weekend!

Weekend Things

I had an artsy and fun filled weekend.

It started off with going to the National Book Festival. It’ll have its own post because of the awesomeness of it.

I dyed pieces of calf leather.

And started on a saddle. It’s more than halfway done.

I’m making the saddle to fit the new premier model, Dundee. It’ll be for sale after it’s complete.

Baroque Hackamore

I love the look of Baroque hackamores. The real life sized ones always have so many pretty decorations and leatherwork. So I decided that I wanted to make one.
It started with prep work.

I used a few reference photos to put it together.

I haven’t taken any pictures with my barn in forever so I pulled it out for pictures.

Here’s the bridle on Alborozo. I didn’t realize how close in size the new Lippizaner mare is with Alborozo. So the bridle will fit her with minor adjustment.

I gave it a decorated broadband and noseband. This was a fun piece of tack to make!
