Catching Up

 Well, I’ve been neglecting my writing lately, and now I have a catch-up post to write! 

Lots of reveals, starting with this adorable SR mare & foal set. 



They are my favorite SRs so far!


Then we have another LE, the Classic one, on the Arabian Malik mold!

Breyer had to pick the one Classic mold I love (besides the new Arab mare & foal) and conga😂😖

Then another SR, a Quagga! I saw the molds silhouette and thought “a Prezwalskis horse! FINALLY!” Then…
I honestly don’t even like him😅 Darn it Breyer, we need a Prezwalskis horse!!!


Then the crystal LE for this year is on the fighting stallion! Cool

Now we’re on to the small guys!

This gorgeous guy is the online only stablemate! Must resist, must resist… 


Then this years Best Of Breyerfest set:
They are really cute! But luckily the Best of Breyerfest sets don’t really speak to me.

Other news: 
The first CC web special was released, a beautiful silver grulla Icelandic! Reykjavik is the start of a new CC series, Exotic Destinations.

The BF blog released the info for this year’s Breyerfest  Best Customs Contest.

I could be missing some things, but I wrote down everything I remember. I plan to write another post later this week, I’ve been making a lot of new stuff! Three bareback pad sets, four new halters, and I got my NaMoPaiMo horse all prepped and ready!

    Yay! You're back! I'm also not a huge fan of the Quagga, but I don't DISLIKE him...you can also see the model that I chose for NaMoPaiMo in the stats section of the NaMoPaiMo website (I registered using my real name) (Innis)

Practice Makes Perfect

A few weeks back, I got some new leather lace. So I decided that it was time to make some halters. My first victim was Snowman. His mold is the perfect one to try things on, in my opinion. (And he needed a new halter anyway) Here’s how it came out: As usual, I made all the hardware myself. I can’t really afford to get a bunch from Rio Rondo.    But this was my first attempt at a rolled throat latch. I am very pleased with how it came out. :) I think Snowman is pleased too! After I completed the first halter, I was just dying to make another. This time I made one for my  favorite Breyer , Adamek. I used all the same techniques, but this time I tried adding little stitch marks to all the leather. I was really happy with that one too, but I still felt that I could do better. So I got one of my other horses.(My only horse that I  cannot name! Seriously, literally nothing I think of suits him. )  And started making one for him. I added stitch markings to this one too, and I think they turne

NaMoPaiMo

 Well, I meant to get this posted a week ago, but better late than never! For those of you who don’t know, NaMoPaiMo stands for National Model Painting Month. It was founded by Jennifer Buxton in 2017. You have one month (February) to paint and complete a model horse. You can find more information on  this  page   of  Jennifer Buxton’s blog . Anyway, long story short, I signed up for this year(my first year!)  So introducing my NaMoPaiMo model… I’ve started painting her twice and stripped her twice. This time I’m determined to get it right! I mean third times a charm right? If all goes according to plan, she will be a dappled grey with a stripe and possibly a few socks by February 29! I also have a few side projects… This little girl will be a chestnut like her mom,  April Showers . I also want to get this guy painted as some kind of bay… I’m not sure if I’ll be doing a red bay, dark bay, etc.   I sanded down his head a little bit to make him more Arabian-typey And my last side project

This and That

Image
 I haven’t made a bunch of stuff lately, but I’ll show you what I did make :) First… A blanket for Dream Catcher.  I am very happy with this one! It’s my favorite blanket so far! (Then again, I say that with every single one I make 😂. I guess that means I’m getting better 😅) Then of course I had to make a rope halter to match and take a few pictures… (I made a matching lead rope too, but forgot to take a picture of it) Then I got my leather out and made some boots! I didn’t have mini magnets for the straps, so I improvised! (But mini magnets are being shipped as I write😉) I found some metal thingies that look like long skinny nails… and put the head through the leather. I’ll be making more as soon as the magnets come. This way is  waaayyyy to time consuming! And on other news… Breyerfest tickets are FINALLY on sale! I haven’t gotten mine yet but I will soon. And Breyer is doing a giveaway for leap year!
