Cowgirl Party Series: Stick Horses
I threw this party for my 3 year old daughter, who loves horses. I knew she would love to have some stick horses of her own since she already rides around on broomsticks and wrapping paper rolls... Which is why I decided to make a few for her (one for her and one for a friend for playdates - to eliminate fighting...).
I was prepared to do an entire tutorial on how I made these, but then I realized, I pretty much just copied the tutorial from A Beautiful Mess, and that isn't right for me to do that. Theirs is pretty vague, it took some brain-work to figure it out, which is why I thought, "If I did mine totally step-by-step, then I'm not copying, right??" Well, I still didn't feel good about it, so I just suggest if you would like to make a few of these on your own, go to their site and use their tutorial. I feel like some bloggers do a lot of copying, which is something I am not ok with. Just be yourself! That's good enough!
A few things I did differently:
. I used felt for the heads
. I sewed on the eye-lashes and reins because I don't trust fabric glue when it comes to children yanking on it. That took a lot of time, FYI.
. I went to Home Depot and had them cut off an entire foot off the wooden rods because she kept hitting the furniture and other
