Once upon a time …
A cowgirl princess with mismatched spur straps waltzed right into my mobile tack trailer store. She had crazy blonde curls and a sassy smirk for a smile. She took a few minutes, looking around. Until… she found a custom wither strap. It was As sassy as she was. It read”look up B****”. She asked how much it was and then marched right back out of the trailer.
Hours went by. And at the end of the game show she reappeared. She’d won a gift certificate to our store. It was just enough to buy that sassy wither strap.
I smiled knowingly as she headed for the rack it hung on. Then, she surprised me. She marched right by it to the back of the trailer. Returning a moment later with every horse wormer I had in her hands.
You see. It wasn’t what she wanted, but what her horses needed.
And I knew right then that I liked this kid.
She’s not a kid anymore. Now a lovely young woman.
So when she gave me the opportunity to make some priceless memories into tack sets, I was honored.
The below set one of them. It’s very special , this set. Priceless really.
You see, she trusted me with her mother’s jewelry. Allowing me to make the below conchos.
Old memories creating new ones. I am so incredibly honored that she had such faith in me! And I can only hope I met her expectations with this set, as well as the next.
For that one …. You guys will have to wait.
If only the sun would show , but alas it’s beautiful even when you can’t see the sparkle.
