Slip not grooming sets and similar

[Gingernags]

Apologies for the patheticness of this but... Got a bit of a dilemma... I've got the blue set of Slip Not brushes that I was using for competitions - like a "best" set instead of my everyday ones which get a bit grubby. BUT I'm hoping to use my blue set as a normal set, chuck out the old, and get a pink set as a travel set.

Now, evil sister is whingeing as she wants a pink set and a purple set (one each for her 2 horses) and doesn't want me to have a pink set.

Horribly trivial and childish I know, but my travel gear is all pink (very, very sad but true) and I want nice matching brushes.

They only make the 3 colours, pink, blue and purple. I can't see the problem myself as long as they are seperate, I'll put stickers or initials on or something, but she's a bit sulky over it (she's 29 BTW!!!)

Has anyone seen anything similar in a different colour? The sets including boxes are £16 in Robinsons...

I'd have got the Oster pink set but they are extortionate!

I was going to say have you seen the Oster sets? I like the blue ones, but can't justify spending over £50 on a set!

Sounds like you both need to bang your heads together! Sisterly love hey. Tell her to share brushes between her horses, use pink on yard and purple at shows!

OMG - do you really need brushes to match??? Noone will be looking at what brushes you are using hun! Failing that why dont you get a black grooming kit? it goes well with pink!

I only know the 'slip not' brushes to come in blue, purple and pink, regardless of the maufacturer.
I guess the best thing is to label them carefully

Bentley ( personally I love em!) do a black 'proffessional' set (have a look on ebay). They're not too pricey, so let your sis have the pink and purple sets and go one better with the proffessional set!
