So not specifically a CR topic but this is the least scary place! While Dolly is on box rest OH is letting me redesign the tack room ( a long overdue job) to quell my boredom! Ourt current tack room is quite small and cramped but has so much scope for improvement. It has one main door but is actually three small rooms in one. It doubles as a feed room. I am so far planning on taking out door to one of the "rooms" and moving all tack etc in there. Due to old cobble walls we will have to put a face on the walls first to enable us to put up hangers etc. Now one thing I am very cautious about is having enough shelving/storage but not too much as if we have too much OH will have space to keep to much junk that should be thrown out. Our feed area will be the "middle" room which the main door opens into as it is much easier to keep regularly swept out etc and then right hand side room is planned for rug storage/grroming gear/random stuff and medicine cupboard (lockable). We have plug points & a tap. What are your tack room essentials? We have a beautiful old cobble floor and the room is above an old oat loft with an unused hopper that opens into tack room. The building is approx 100years old and I want to have it modern but still have the feel of history of the thousands of horses OH's father produced from the yard. Any suggestions?
