Julip Tack List

I realised the other day that I didn't have an accurate list of tack for all my Julips and as one of my resolutions this year was to make them a full set each, having an idea of who needs what sounded like a good idea! (it also lets me see just how many I have now and eeep, I'm not far off 30 Originals! :o)

I make that 14 new saddles, 8 headcollars & rugs and 4 bridles needed. I'm going to be busy!

New boy Paddy got a saddle to match his bridle last week. I followed this brilliant tutorial by Jennifer Buxton for the bucklefree adjustable stirrups and I'll definitely be using it again as it takes a lot of hassle away from the construction!

  1. I am so pleased that you found that tutorial useful. I usually like my tack to work exactly like it's full sized counterparts, but that is such an elegantly simple way to make adjustable stirrup leathers... I just can't make myself use buckles!

  2. :D My problem is that I often don't make the skirt long enough so any buckles are usually incredibly obvious - then you have the issue of the buckles getting mangled from repeated use (I'm too cheap to actually buy some RR ones so I just make my own XD)so this has been something of a revalation to me!

  3. O.O Just how small are the Julips? This looks awesome and I think I get a knot in my fingers by the mere thought of the reins. *lol*

  4. Slightly smaller than 1/12th scale - I don't think I could go any smaller without killing my eyesight! XD
