I’ve been searching high and low for fun horse gifts that will appeal to all age brackets & skill levels. I’m making my lists, checking them twice & I will try to offer horsey gift ideas on Mondays through to the holidays.
Last week it was backpacks, this week lunch bags. Some of them are cute enough you may be tempted to keep one for yourself.
For each one I’ve provided links where they can be found on Amazon & closer views where available.

Some of the most celebrated equine athletes have been famous racehorses. The heart, courage & determination of just one Thoroughbred has been known to provide enough inspiration to fill up entire countries at a time.
Over the past two years I’ve only written a few articles about famous racehorses, but as I revisit old posts I create new ideas.
For now, why not learn a little more about the greats I have covered? Sadly, most of their stories end tragically. As is often the case, stars that shine the brightest generally burn out young.
Phar Lap | Seabiscuit | Secretariat
*I’ll add to this list as I write more posts about the giant heart that seems to accompany all great racehorses.
Thanks to the folks at Aspen Valley Horse Rescue for their tireless efforts in bringing this issue to the headlines. Right now there are 400+ PMU Horses who are in desperate need of saving.

I’ve never been able to call myself much of a stamp collecter, however when I discovered horse stamps I changed my tune.
I had no idea there were so many stamps out there bearing the likeness of our equine friends.
This is part 2 in a series of posts dedicated to the colorful & artistic horse stamps of the world. Be sure to check out the previous posts Pt. 1 | Pt. 3 | Pt. 4 | Pt. 5
Even better than a tiny postage stamp is a big image which allows us to grow a greater appreciation for this prolific type of art, the art of stamps.
