Welcome The Year of The Horse!

Project Decor

If you follow my blog you know by now that I am bit obsessed with horses. I guess because we have one ourselves and if you own one too you know the blood sweat and tears that goes into caring for them!  I love that we are entering the "Year of The Horse"! It is a popular animal in design and I think we can easily add them to our interior decor for a fun way to welcome the New Year! There are so many sites that have fun horse items, but I love to see what Etsy has in store for us! I really like to support artisans and small businesses and Etsy has some fantastic online stores to check out. I am sure you can also peruse your local antique or thrift shop and find fabulous Equine subjects just begging for you to take them home!  I hope you add a little "bit" of horse to your home this year, and I wish you all Luck and Health in 2014!

Our little boy or big boy I should say!
Below are some of the ways I have added a bit of horse to my interior decor and some places to find some of your own!!

    very cool post! I was very into the Barbaro story and was so sad when he passed. Can't seem to watch that race anymore. Horses are very cool animals and very smart. Hope you have a wonderful New Year!

      Agreed that poor Barbaro! We are not racing fans, my daughter does flat work and cross country and is on her college team. We love horses and support rescues and humane treatment of our big four legged friends! I love your blog and all the fun places you post from NYC! Have a great New a Year!
