🌟 Tails and horseshoes 🌟
Something that is hard to think about, is that one day we are destined to lose a best friend to the sky. During those last few moments together it can be hard to remember to grab these few simple things below, that can one day become a very special piece to help hold onto the memories you shared together.
🕊️ Tails ~ the best way to keep this is pop the tail into a simple plait before cutting (loose and dirty is fine) and band both the top and the bottom. Place into a bag of some sort that can be labeled and stored safely. If the tail is wet, be sure to give it time to dry before storing away to avoid mold. The more hair you’re able to collect, the more beautiful creations you can make.
🕊️Horse shoes ~ this one is slightly trickier. Our recommendation is to keep a set of shoes from a previous farrier visit. Removing the shoes without the farrier be difficult, but with the right selection of tools and someone that can help you, it can be made easy.
Store these items in something such as a supplement container, but be sure to place the hair in a separate bag inside to avoid them getting tangled.
I know that during these times it can be extremely hard to remember to hold onto these things. But if you know what to do and how to do it, then sometimes it can make the process that tiny bit easier.
If you did forget these things, i can make something **just as special** with other items that they may of used - bits, brow bands, lead ropes, headstalls, ashes, plus lots more.
If you have a special friend you want to cherish with a frame, don’t hesitate to reach out. I will take extra special care of them and get them back home to you safely ❤️
Kind regards Shantel.
