I had just sold my horse and had a ton of extra stuff, so I sent it to her. It's a Somerset that was given to me by my friend. It's probably from 1996 or so when we were riding back in middle or high school. Funny how horse stuff gets passed around. Glad to know it went to good use since I'm still horseless!Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13458834691170821210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677504786349906999.post-10611415036096048802017-07-06T18:17:21.313-04:002017-07-06T18:17:21.313-04:00That's awesome.

I have a frankenbridle, but it didn't involve international support, I just put the non broken pieces of multiple broken bridles together until I created a bridle when I needed a snaffle for a schooling hunter show.Olivia @ DIY Horse Ownershiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16138490796669110523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677504786349906999.post-90695734113219084762017-07-06T17:43:45.013-04:002017-07-06T17:43:45.013-04:00I love this!
