Tutorial: Neck Wreaths

December 5, 2020 ~ Nichelle ~ 5 Comments

This year I felt inspired to make some festive neck wreaths for my models. I've seen these on real horses for portrait photography, and thought it would be fun to create them in miniature. This an easy, no rules type of project. For the garland, I'm using miniature pine roping I found on Etsy. (I … Continue reading Tutorial: Neck Wreaths

February 1, 2020 ~ Nichelle ~ 14 Comments

I have another tutorial for you all today, this time on braided cotton reins. I'm basing my reins off of these by Tough-1: Finished set: They're pretty simple to make.

I've also found that these are great for using up fabric scraps that I hold on … Continue reading Galaxy Saddlebags

Saddlebag Rainbow

February 17, 2019 ~ Nichelle ~ 3 Comments

This past week I've been making saddlebags. Lots and lots of saddlebags. These were redesigned to match the horn bagsย and use a simplified pattern. I stopped making saddlebags because, to be honest, they were a pain to make. This version is easier, and I think it looks cleaner. I hope it's an improvement? Here's a … Continue reading Saddlebag Rainbow
