If it's Sunday, it's Rocking Horses

 

If you live in the States, my comments won't publish.  I suspect you have noticed that, too.  Nicole was the one who clued me in to the problem.  Please be aware, I visit, regardless.  It appears the only people able to publish their comments live outside the states.  It appears this problem has been corrected.

It's time for me to share a few more rocking horses.  Today I'm joining Nicole for Sunday in the Art Room or SITAR, and Gillena with Sunday Smiles. 

As I explained the last time we visited my guest bedroom, there are over 100 rocking horses in this room.  The first week I showed pillows, the second I showed stuffed rocking horses.  Today I have a mixed bag.

 

Speaking of bags, how about this one with a rocking horse and beaded handles.

 

This is my heaviest and most expensive.  This is solid brass and weighs a ton.  This horse cost $465.00 (USD), but all I paid was the first $45.00.  I placed it on layaway about a month before Christmas right before I moved to Wichita, KS.  When friends asked what I wanted for Christmas, I told them to put whatever they liked to the layaway.  I told the company holding the rocking horse to take the person's name, but not what they donated to the horse.  I had put the entire amount away to buy it, just in case no one left any money.  Nearly a week before I planned to pick up the horse, I got a call from the company telling me to come pick up the horse.  It had been paid in full.  I had the names of the people who contributed money to the horse.  They were all friends I already had gifts picked out and wrapped for them.  I was truly blown away!!!  This was the gift of a lifetime.

 

We are now back to this hand towel.  As you can see, my rocking horses come in all shapes and sizes.  BTW, all my wood is quartersawn oak.
