Well, not 3, but two for sure. Someone needs to take my debit card away from me before I spend all my money on plastic ponehs! Of course, it wouldn't do any good since I have the number memorized. Who was it that wrote a blog post the other day about staying away from the Stone website? Oh yeah. I was me! So why didn't I? WHY did I have to go look? Not once, but twice!
The first one I bought was Chasing Pirates...who I believe was in that other post...
Look at that face! He'll be my first dappled horse from Stone. I'm looking forward to getting him. I decided to have it shipped USPS Priority this time. Maybe it'll arrive sooner than UPS ground...It's the same price so we'll see. Anyway, last night I saw on the Stone Facebook page something about Amy Davies/Cinnamon MewMew and went to the main Stone site (the above horse came from the Stone Pony page) where I saw they were having a Last Chance Sale!!!!!!! 25% off between "now" and Friday. Wow. Well, I just HAD to go see what I could find and I came up with this one...
This guy is Sleigh Bell and I got him for $50 off! I have no idea where I'm going to put these guys when they arrive. Maybe establish a Stone Shelf. I'm really looking forward to getting my new horses, but I have to be patient. And I need to stay away from the Stone site for awhile. I really need to. Yup. I do. But
will I? Hahaha. I'm going to try very very hard!
So, a month or so ago I ordered a couple of horse hair bracelets from a gal on MHB. They're really nice and I absolutely love them. I have big wrists so she put an extender on both of them to make them bigger and didn't charge anything extra for it. I got the bracelets and wore them for several days and showed them off to people. But then I stopped wearing them. Why? Not because I stopped liking them, but because I discovered they kind of got in the way. I work on a computer all day long at work and they just kind of got in the way of typing. So I attached them to one of the straps of my bag I take to work. But that wasn't good enough. I saw her "ad" where she was looking for horse hair donations and said the people who donated would get a free keychain made from some of the hair they sent in and I got to thinking...if I remove the extenders, I could potentially turn my 2 bracelets into a keychain. So that's what I did.
They're bigger and a slightly different shape than what the keychains she makes are, but that's okay. Now I don't have to dig for my keys in my pocket anymore, I can just reach in and snag one of the loops. The bracelets are stiff, of course, but they don't stay like what's shown in the photo. I just spread them out so you could see what they look like.
I'm really quite happy I decided to do this so I can still enjoy my bracelets, just re-purposed. :)
