Budget Equestrian
DIY projects for barn, tack room and even your home
On Wednesday of this week, our local weather forecasters were warning us that there was a blizzard forming over our area, and that it would be bad. They called it a ‘Bomb Cyclone’ and before this week, I don’t think I had ever heard of such a weather condition before. However today, I now know …
This blog post is an in depth look at how I get done what I get done. And while Monday through Friday are pretty boring, and mostly the same because I have to work, I though it would share with you what a typical weekend looks like for me. And this is what I did …
Budget and equestrian are two words that don’t really go together. Let’s face it, a horse habit is not very budget friendly. But it doesn’t always have to be so expensive. I thought I would share some of my favorite budget ideas with you that may help with your equestrian endeavor this upcoming year.
Colliers Rip It Patch It Kit I think I have shared with you how destructive my horse Frisby is with his blankets and sheets. In fact, I have a sheet that Frisby wore one time, yes ONE TIME, and he destroyed it. And in case you were wondering what type of sheet this was, it …

Natural Ingredient Pest Repellent I recently had the opportunity to try out a new product on my horses. The creator of Equi-Spa horse products reached out to me and asked if I would be interested in trying out some of the products she has created, and I was like “Of course!” I love learning about …
Day 4 Of The Confident Rider Challenge I feel I need to start today’s challenge with a disclaimer. I have been working with horses for the past 30 some years. And the things that I do with my horses and share with you, works for me. I am not a professional horse trainer, nor do …
Testing Out Horse Shine Sprays I am always on the hunt for a new favorite, regardless of what it is. This is especially true when it comes to shine sprays for my horses. And not just a spray that adds shine, but one that will help to repel dust, and limit manure stains. Something that …
Heart To Horse Subscription Box Review Well, after the Saddle Box let down that I just wrote about, I am a little leery of opening another subscription box. But, I had already ordered this one, and in case you have thought about ordering one, I just had to put this review out there too. And …
