A couple weeks ago I stumbled across Enterprise Props. I had never heard of this prop maker, and going through their shop I felt like a kid in a candy store. I may have gone a little overboard with my order(s)! XD
On my PC, I have a folder full of real horse items I’d like to figure out how to make someday. But they’ve left me stumped, because the only way I could think of making them was either hope a manufacturer would, OR learn 3D modelling and get into 3D printing. (and after looking through it some I decided that nope, not going to tackle THAT!)
So I was really excited to see that everything I wanted in miniature was available on Enterprise Props’ website.
Literally, everything. o_o (and there are still more pieces I’d like to get… but I must resist for now…)
Anyway, I am so pleased with it all. I believe they are 3D printed, (not positive on that) and are both durable and lightweight. My second order included a few extra/surprise pieces as well – the red grooming box and set of salt licks. That was such a sweet surprise and I am so grateful! ^_^
Here are both grooming boxes:
I think these are my favorite because I’ve wanted a plastic grooming box forever.
They can be held by the dolls too, which is a huge bonus!
Here’s the small mounting block:
I made one many years ago from small jewelry boxes. It’s been needing an upgrade badly!
I really love the water trough…
… and the tiny feed scoop! It’s a little rough around the edges but it’s super cute.
I got really excited over the bucket. XD I made one a million years ago from a recycled medicine-dosage cup, but I’ve wanted one with a flat side and wasn’t sure how to accomplish that.
Here are the feed pans:
Got to get every… last… speck…
And last but not least, the salt licks:
Gahhh I love everything and it’s probably weird to get so excited over buckets and pans and things, but these are pieces I’ve been wanting for years. I’m so glad to add them to the mini stable!
Everything looks gorgeous! Thanks for all the photos. 😉
Oh, right there with you on the excitement. They do a monthly subscription box, too.
Yes I believe that those are 3D printed, or at least in the photos they look like they are. Do they do Schleich stuff?
Their website says they can re-size their items so maybe!
It all looks incredible! I’ve thought of a way to make salt licks before, but these look much better than a bead in a string. 😊
Ok thanks!
These props are fantastic!
I’ve always been a fan of seeing the different items you make and watching how you use your props in photographs. This summer I was lucky enough to purchase a Breyer #277 Wooden Barn at a yard sale so your tutorials and these props mean ALL that much more now!!
Thanks for sharing, as you’ve always done. : )
Thanks! 😀 And congrats on finding the barn – that one is my favorite. I wish Breyer was still making it!
I need those buckets! My brother has a 3d printer so maybe I could bribe him into making me some model horse stuff! 😉
These look incredible! Thank you for posting about this site, I’ll definitely have to order from them soon. I wonder how much the selection will continue to grow… 😀
COOL! The horse stuff looks really real.
About the 3-D printing, there is a new 3-D printer called Toy box you can use to design your own toys. It may be useful for miniatures.
I’ve heard of that! I might need to look into it more 🙂
