Bling!! It's here!

[oldie48]

I am stupidly excited as my Xmas pressie to Rose (well to me really) has arrived and I love it. It fits her bridle and is beautifully made. It is much more sparkly in real life and will look lovely on a totally black head. I will post a picture of her wearing it when I get her in later today. I've never done "bling" before but then again I've never had a Rose to dress up before, Bisto looked stunning just as he was although I did fleetingly toy with the idea of a brass clencher browband.
Let's see your bling.s see your bling for Christmas

Love it Oldie, it will look amazing on, especially as she’s dark. Ive never done bling, until I saw this brow band . It’s blue and our colours are blue and brown. I’d looked at it for ages, and finally succumbed when it was in the sale with 30% off .

Oh my goodness, that is very rose coloured! It's lovely.

I just got a red and grey beaded affair for Arts - will post a pic later

They are rose opals (not real obviously) with quartz crystals, thought it sounded just right for Rose. I've got some earings that will match which were bought for my birthday years ago. Blimey I have gone to the dark side! they do matching stock pins but I thought that was a step too far.

Oldie you can’t post a picture of Rosie wearing it today it is a Christmas present, she can’t have it until Christmas Day when Santa delivers it to her.

 

[milliepops]

awww can't wait to see it on her. But I agree, it ought to be on xmas day

Salty has a single row of topaz gold crystals

Kira doesn't wear bling much but here is her Welsh flag browband for the home international

Millie had a boring white crystal browband

 

[HufflyPuffly]

That will look so scrummy on a black!!!!!!!

I have properly succumbed to the dark side and have even started making them . Topaz has several as I'm very lazy about changing bridles...
Snaffle dressage

Snaffle hacking

(sorry mum this was the best pic of the browband lol)
I also have one for her double bridle:

Plus a Welsh one I made, but I cannot seem to find a picture of it...

Even Doodle lol:

Haha she sooo fluffy! Like a polar bear until I clip her, but I just love her forelock, both the others have such tiny amounts compared to hers lol.

Finn is just the same . I love his fuzz 😍 my daughter loves bling so he has had a few blingy ones . But nothing beats the fuzz !

 

[HufflyPuffly]

Soooo fluffy <3

Oooh; love a bit o' bling!

 

[Denbob]

I've always been adamant that I was not a bling fan... but this thread may have me thinking twice about that! Especially if we start to think about eventually braving a bit of stressage. They all look lovely, looking forward to some pictures of Rose

 

[Bernster]

I’m after a new one! Asha, where did you get yours from pls?

 

[buddylove]

I have the PS Sweden vintage rose browband for parties, if we are continuing on a pinky rose theme....... could be the start of a collection Oldie 😉

 

[only_me]

Billy got one to distract judges from his beautiful lugs 😜

 

[DirectorFury]

I like a bit of bling . This browband has lasted around 4 years being used in all weathers for all activities. She needs a bigger one now (and a bigger bridle, sigh) but prices have doubled since I bought this one and I can't quite bring myself to spend the extra. Not that you can see it that often with her ridiculous forelock!

We have a very fancy blue unicorn one. It starts out dark blue and fades all the way down to nearly clear in the middle. Ignore the bit, We were trying the bridle on and my friend took a photo. She doesnt normally have the bit wedged between her front teeth!

The beast in lime green, I think it emphasises his ears

I like the blue, it really suits her.

Oh gods yes! This is the daily bridle:

Don't have a pic of it on 🙄

Its a PS of Sweden one , I got it from Hope Valley Saddlery. A real bargain . I’d been weighing it up for ages x

 

[Floxie]

I'd like a v-shaped one with just black stones - does anybody know where I might find one? It's hard to search for cos you just get black leather and any old stone returned in the search results!

 

[Nasicus]

Brass Clenchers are about as bling as I get

 

[dollymix]

haha my mare has been treated to a similar Christmas Present! It was only £20 in the sale so I couldn't resist buying our first bit of bling. It will be for dressage only, but I think she looks like a Princess hahaha

 

[oldie48]

Well I couldn't wait until Christmas Day so tried it on Rose this afternoon, just a pity the sun had gone in!
