Love horses??  Many of us who love the Western way of living have a fondness for horses if not a full-blown passion.  To be truthful I’m a cowgirl who is “All Hat, No Cows”, but I really appreciate the fabulous people I have come to know who live & breathe for their horses. 

That said, I came across a site tonight that is the most all-encompassing site for horse lovers that I have ever seen – BackIntheSaddle.com.  Here are several items that I found and thought we’d all appreciate…  Enjoy!!

First, a couple of ideas for the outdoors…

Foal of Charm Garden Sculpture by artist Henry Dupre
What a wonderful addition to your backyard menagerie.  This darling foal is the perfect pet – so sweet to look at yet requires no hay, apples, or stall cleaning.

 
Mossed Horse Topiary
I can picture this fitting so perfectly in some of the yards in my hometown of Houston.  A delightful addition to your summer garden!!

Firecracker Tile Mural by artist Pat Stebbins
I think this is my favorite on this site!!  It is so classic that I can picture it in almost any home where the primary colors are based on a natural palette.  Love it for above an oven, bathtub, fireplace…  any more ideas??

I am perusing my new Domino Mag (December/January 2008) and looking for some inspiration. 

My first lead is to Wisteria.com.  It’s a new one for me and I’m lovin’ it!!  Check out just a few of the treasures I’ve uncovered at my new “don’t forget to shop it” website…

Pinecone Candles – what a great gift idea, bundled with some wood and fire starters & tied with a green velvet ribbon (see below), for your holiday hosts!!

 
Woodland Staghead – for my girls who can’t stand the real thing (I don’t blame you…)

 
Vintage Trough – can’t wait to see it on my front porch next spring!!

Pinecone Urn – Fabulous!!  There definitely won’t be another one on your block!!

Card Tree of Memories – I have a decorating client that has been looking for something like this since last Christmas!!  Celebration, Amy, I finally found it!!

Domino then leads me to the velvet ribbon mentioned above…
 

Wood Grain Ribbon – available in green, brown and golds from MarthaStewartCrafts.com – now that’s a “good thing”!!

Time to call it a night – they’re calling for snow tomorrow so I’ll finish up with Domino manana… 
Till then, xoxo
