As someone who has ridden a horse exactly twice (and not very successfully!), I admit to not knowing a whole lot about the work and care that goes into enjoying one.
My friend Leigh-Ann, on the other hand, knows it well. She has a sweet horse named Cooper who, I've learned, comes with a lot of stuff!
Leigh-Ann mentioned how much she longed for a nice - and big - custom tack box for the barn and, of course, I was happy to oblige.
***Insert funny imaginary montage of me trying to figure out how to build a tack box!***
Here is the result....
The closed piece measures 5' high x 2' wide x 2.5' deep.
I customized it with black trim and a black hand-painted decal of Leigh-Ann's horse show (Owen's Pride) and tattoo design.
Here is an inside shot. Places for saddle, helmet, gloves, grooming gear, etc., etc.
Detail shots.
The whole piece has a little shelf on the top that came to be completely by accident - but I'm told it works well for hanging some sort of more horse stuff (see how educated I've become?!).
So, now that I know what a tack box is and how to build one, I can make some more!
Send me an email if you want one for yourself! carolynclegg@gmail.com
