Just after some advice from all the lovely people on here. It's my friends birthday in a couple of weeks and am looking to get her something nice. Hopefully practical or even personalised. She has 2 horses, a mare and gelding and events if that's any help. Budget is about £40 as I'm only a poor student :(

Thanks in advance
 
I bought my best friend a body brush that the lady had personalised with her name and a beautiful painting of her horse. The lady does lots of other things too ill try and find the link for you. Was £12 including postage :)
 
Stable door signs for both her horses? I don't know how much carved wood ones would cost, but you could investigate that?

I feel I'm on the cusp of having a brilliant idea...if it ever arrives, I'll let you know :p
 
I would suggest a horsehair bracelet. I have made a couple for friends birthdays and they have always been delighted. Especially when they realised I had made them!

They are reasonably easy to make as well :) This is coming from someone who had never done anything else like it before I tried it.

I did it because I was a student and couldn't afford to pay someone else to do it for me! If you were interested in doing this, I can explain how to go about it. Just PM me for instructions :)
 
Nags rags do really nice personalised saddlecloths and numnahs in a variety of colours, my OH bought me one and I love it! They aren't hugely padded which suits my lad perfectly too.
From what I can remember depending on what colour scheme/type and amount of lettering the numnahs go for about £20 odd and the saddle cloths are roughly £35 so slightly over budget unless you just bought her one with her name on it ;)
I like the horse hair jewelry idea though, late night horse hair theft sounds fun :p
 
Thank you for all your suggestions. Very kind. Like the idea of a canvas and the hair. Actually had a necklace made for myself a few weeks ago :)

Hnmisty, if it comes to you let me know :)
