My custom tack

Subject: My custom tack Fri Jan 01, 2016 5:56 pm

I've been planning to introduce my tack to this forums, but kept forgetting, and at some point lost access to my STS account. Now, finally this topic is happening!
I have been making model horse tack ever since I started collecting in 2011 - started simple, with halters and blankets and eventually branched out - I am now making some more complicated pieces such as Arabian Presentation Sets and Dancing Arabian Sets. Really want to start working on tack more regularly, but my time currently is limited.... Maybe this year, hopefully.
I have created page where I collect photos of all my work - recent and past. If you are interested in seeing more of my work, check my page: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
And here, two of my most favourite pieces I have made

I am open to ideas, so if you have an idea for a piece of tack you want to see, shoot out! :)

That's impressive! Shocked

I don't know if there are tacks with different configurations according with region, I suspect so. If it exists, I believe that in Bulgaria, a country apparently with some riding tradition, you can find some good ideas. Very Happy

By the way, it is nice to see back on forum. Very Happy

Thank you Shanti! Coming from you, it really means a lot, seeing how beautiful your tack is! :) I'll never be able to get to your level, but I can keep dreaming, lol.
As for the arabs, the bay one is HA Al Sayyid resin (Mentor) painted by me, the grey is CM Weather girl, by Sue Kern. Both are top horses in my collection!

Thank you! I love you

It is not 100% correct yet, as it is missing the fiador knot (which is still giving me nightmares, just watching a tutorial how to tie it) but I am determined to learn how to do it! Very Happy
