COLLECTION OF SCARVES

You can never have too many scarves! Here is a collection of beautiful scarves in a handmade hatbox. There is something to match every turnout.

AFTERNOON TEA

Really, when was the last time you had afternoon tea?
The tray includes everything for a pleasant afternoon tea. Two pretty cups and saucers with an equine depiction are ready for you to pour with tea coasters and honey straws. The cups and saucers are on a useful tray for your next afternoon tea party.

ABSORBINE TOTE

Everything is useful. This tote has hoof polish, fly spray, liniment, leather wash and Begel show sheen. No excuse for a dirty harness with leather wash. Hoof
polish for the show, fly spray for your equine's comfort, and don’t forget the show sheen.
You are ready to dazzle all other competitors and spectators!

WINE AND CHOCLATE

Wine after the show? Chocolate truffles for dessert or both perhaps? Lots of other good edibles to go along with wine. An unusual basket for future use, great kitchen towel with lemon yellow design.

KATY'S BUCKET

We call it the Iowa Organizer’s Bucket.
It has all sorts of practical things we use daily. Mane and tail shampoo, (the kind sold in drug stores, not only for horses but for people). It includes a scraper, for after the bath, horse treats, Iowa beef jerky, an Aiken Carriage Classic Hat, and exceptionally nice tea towels.

PLATTER

An outstanding addition to any home. The design is just gorgeous. A grey horse, pulling a two wheel carriage with a smiling couple enjoying their drive.
The depiction of the carriage is authentic from the hubs to the harness and more. Notice the whip is using the Auchenbach method of handling the lines.

CHARCUTERIE BOARD

Coming from Walnut Hill makes this extra special.
It is ready for your assortment of meats, and cheeses, artisan bread, olives, fruit and nuts.
You are all set for your next gathering.

BLACK AND GOLD HAT

Here is a custom black felt hat with a gold satin band, an original by Hats Off Boutique. The back of the hat has tasteful satin bows, a few delicate feathers and a mesh gold bow.
Along with it is a black and gold scarf. The design is of servant-driven gigs and wagon wheels.The colors of the scarf and hat match perfectly. This stunning set is "Turn Out" worthy.

BACKPACK

This unique backpack is perfect for your next picnic. It will go with you wherever you wish to go.
It is remarkable inside with all the accoutrements you could ever imagine.
Of course it has a wine holder and wine included.

DRIVING FLY SHEET

Is your horse ready for the gnats and
other flying irritants? These bugs and
others can be really annoying and in
some cases cause serious skin conditions.
This navy blue fly sheet is made for
driving horses. It is brand new, size 69.
It will make warm-weather drives much more
pleasant for your equine and for you as well.
