Missing Manes

Missing Manes "Remembering the horses that have touched our hearts." Brenda Vynalek started to add horse tail hair Each weaving is custom made to order.

Over the past few years, I have made pillows and framed pieces, for people who, like me, were looking for that special something, to preserve that "piece" of memory. The weavings use tail and mane hair that has been clipped from the owner's current horses, so those horses are "missing" some mane. Others are from horse tail hair that was taken when the owner's horse passed away, hence, "missing" th

eir horses mane. I am also, snipping a few strands here and there from some very special and lucky rescue horses. These woven pieces, when sold, will come with information regarding the horses, and the rescue organization, part of the proceeds will go directly to the rescue.

Oh, my heart.
I do this work out of the love of the horses and the people who love them.
This picture symbolizes that sentiment.
The hole represents the loss, the Angel wings of a new Angel forever watching over and guiding from above. I see grief in this photo, but I also see hope and healing, but mostly, I see great love, that lasts forever, not matter the form.
Run free sweet Levi

In twilight's hush, she kneels beside,
A faithful friend with breath grown wide.
Soft shadows drape the stable's walls,
As silence in the evening falls.

Her fingers trace his weary mane,
A bond of years in whispered pain.
She speaks of trails, of meadows bright,
Of gallops through the morning light.

He knows her voice, his weary eye,
A final gaze beneath the sky.
She holds him close, her steady hand,
As earth reclaims his spirit grand.

And in that still, unspoken grace,
They linger in a timeless space.
A life well-shared, in love they part,
A horse, a lady, and her heart.

2 new options to choose from for frames. These would both look beautiful with any color tail. I just love the barn feel these bring.

5x7 photo, braided horsehair keepsake frames are $135. They can be 4 sided, or 3 sided with tassel ends, vertical or horizontal.

They make great memorial keepsake pieces or can be made now with a small clipping of your current horse's tail.
