 |
|
| Kay, well, me and my best friend both ride and lease horses. Her birthday is three days before mine. Shes a yr and 3 days older then me. She's getting me a saddle pad with skull and crossbones on them. I'm not sure what to get her though.... She already has polo wraps and like 20 saddle pads, and all the other basic horse stuff, brushes, and grooming tools etc. And last year I got her a gift certificate to a tack shop so thats outta the question.... Any ideas? Neither of us own horses, so keep that in mind.our birthdays are sept. 13th and 16thso i do have time to order tihngs onlineshe already has a name plate for her saddle, and has like 3 halters.... |

| Hmm... Depending upon what discipline she rides -- you could get her some gear inclined towards her discipline. Lets say she wears spurrs, get her some fancy spurr straps (lol). Or you can do a various little "gift basket", make some horse treats, get a few interesting/unique brushes, etc.I'm really not sure, since she doesn't own her own horse, I know for me personally I'm always in need of halters and leadropes, because somehow they always disappear on my property >.>...You could always get an engraved little plate for the back of her saddle if she owns her own saddle o_O.. Possibly some bags to hold her boots? Etc. Just go online and search all the tackstores.Like:www.statelinetack.comwww.doversaddlery.com etc(you might be able to find cheaper stuff at other places, but these will have the most varied stock) -- also, I'd definately request getting their magazines, esepcially Dover. It's always fun for me to "Window-shop", flipping through the pages and marking what I'd SOMEDAY like to have...Good luck, dear :3 |

| Not sure what "style" she likes, but you can probably find some kind of personalized horse bracelet online. State Line Tack and other online stores sometimes have jewelry that you can personalize with your horses name or something.Or, since you said neither of you own horses, what about offering to pay for one or two of her lessons? This is always appreciated by most people because paying for horse stuff is hard!If there is a place on the property to trail ride, you could take her on a trail ride and have a picnic lunch ready in the middle somewhere.You could even pay for 1 shoeing for her horse (if your leases include this).Fly spray, shampoo, etc., are always good gifts as you're constantly using them.Hope something helps! |

| I’ll have to suggest www.creanta.comThey turn any image like your favorite photographs into a hand made painting. Maybe one of her horse or her and her horse?What I liked of them is that they at really good at capturing the physical likeness and they’re affordable too. I was very impressed with the results. Highly recommend them.Best wishes!! |
