A Special Gift For A Special Little Girl | Wooden Rocking Horse No. 2
18September 19, 2016 by Terry
Do you remember this sweet little rocking horse that I made over for one of my special clients? Well, a couple of months ago I was asked if I would do another one for her, only this time it would be for a girl!
This time the horse wasn’t as large or as detailed so this was my opportunity to make it as detailed and pretty as it deserved to be! Every little princess should have a pretty horse to ride right?
I wanted to give this little princess a customized sparkly ride so I got out the FAT paint in Pink Cashmere and some metallic paints and set to work.
Here are the results!
This sweet little horse got a diamond encrusted saddle and handles as well as her initials branded on the hip with glitter!
Since the original yarn mane and tail were lacking in the glam dept. we gave them a few ribbon curls through out … ‘extensions’ if you will ;)
Now this little princess can ride in style!
I hope she enjoys her 1st birthday gift from her auntie Christina. What a great tradition you have started by giving each of your nieces and nephews a horse for their first birthdays.
Smiles!

Thanks for the inquiry but this was a custom project done for a client of mine. It was done a few years ago for her niece for her birthday.

Hello! I just want to let you know that this was a custom Rockinghorse that somebody brought to me to have made over. I believe the lady who brought it to me, had found it in the thrift store. Thank you for your comment and I hope you have a great day.
