Leather Team Horses & Wagon


Hello my dear readers and friends, *grin*

These pictures were taken right here at our farm. Today  seemed the perfect day for me to do these  foggy pictures. These horses have been waiting for pictures for a while now because I was waiting for a nice day and I know some people may don't like "foggy days" but I do!*grin*

These are  my new "leather horses" . I  have them listed along with the wagon on my Etsy shop, however , if they are not sold before I leave to Tom Bishop in Chicago, I will have them at  my table. If you are planning to come to the show , I would  love to meet  you  in person!*grin*

 Each horse have a unique position and expression.

 The hardness are all handmade from leather and many mini accessories. I tried to imitate real hardness  and they look incredible, if i may say,  real in person.:)

The horses  can be removed from the wagon and even the hardness can be removed as no glue was used but it does take patience to buckle everything back in place. ( also some fine tweezers) grin

The leather process is something that I tried last year and made 2 horses . I was blessed to find buyers  right way. I know theses are expensive collector items and i feel privilege  when one decides to collect one.
 The wagon is also handmade ,not by me, but I did altered. It is beautiful wagon!
If you like to purchase , please visit my etsy store.

If you like me to make a commission horse for you, I will be glad too, just ask!
 Thank you so much for taking your time to visit me and if you decide to leave me a comment, even small, I would like to thank you in advance. I am not always able to visit all who kindly comes here , as I still have 6 children at home and all the farm activities, homeschooling and more , keeps me very busy, but please know that I receive as a great encouragement and many times , I promise you this... I need it!
((((Thank you))))) **smiles***

Leather Horses Preview

 Hello!!!*grin*

These are 2 of my horses that will be available  on the upcoming Philadelphia Miniaturia Show in November 2012.
These horses were hand sculpted over a strong twisted copper wire and aluminum armature , using polymer clay and apoxie sculpt  in their legs to assure strength and stability.
The unicorn Pegasus has a gorgeous white leather coat  and the red brownish horse is two tone.
They were made differently and the end results shows. The dark horse had a different finish , having  the shine and leather effect. the white horse has a soft suede look.
They both are massive horses although still in a 1:12 scale so they are quit small.

I have a saddle professionally made for the dark horse and it will be available for purchase at my table as well.

When I get close to the show , I will show more pictures and hopefully more horses. I am dying to try a black one next.
Thank you so much for your comments and visits, you are so very kind to me!*grin*
Have a blessed day!*smiles*
