Excited for the barn tour! default smiley :)
By the way J, probably 99% of everybody hates their own voice in videos recordings etc. but that's what your voice really sounds like.... Other people don't mind it though. It's weird.
^^ Haha, I know what you're saying. Somehow my voice sounds absolutely terrible in recordings. I hate it. I sound like a dying toad. default smiley (lol)

So, I'm starting to make a two stall barn that has a tack room inside, does anyone have any tips ? It also might have a a built in pasture.
But to me when I speak I sound totally different.

J that's how it is for everyone default smiley (lol)

Tips for a barn.... If you make it out of cardboard, make sure there's no packing tape on it and paint the outside. First. My barn has tons of packing tape and or slippery cardboard that I can't paint easily, so it's hot pink, less hot pink, brown-red, and brown. default smiley (lol) Pre-make fences/dividers out wood- Popsicle sticks, jumbo ones, mini ones, round toothpicks, flat toothpicks, peg things, etc.

I really want to make a Japanese inspired barn. The stalls would have like frosted plastic panels in the doors (backs of post it tabs default smiley xd) and everything would be a mahogany brown. Make some cherry blossom patterns painted on the stall walls, and some other stuff that's way too hard to explain. default smiley (lol) I call them: corner entrance, barred thing above the bottom stall door panel, cool loft, hanging flowers outside, and stone pillars somewhere default smiley (lol) that's my dream REAL barn if I ever owned a big barn.

Yay! I built a Popsicle stick barn. It has three stalls and swinging doors. I spent 3hrs on it. I'm also filming a barn tour. (But since I don't have a You Tube!!! Mom? I have to show it to my friends.)

Lucky! I have one horsey friend, and all my sisters aren't horsey either. When howrse has a mini survey asking how likely you are to recommend howrse to your friends I say 1. Because my only horsey friend already plays! default smiley (lol) Point being I can't brag about all my stuff default smiley (lol) default smiley xd that's why I want a YouTube. I need to share my GENUIS ideas with the world! *tries to think of ideas I had myself*
By Retired breeder, 17th May 2015 12:33:51
Yeah, I only have one horsey friend too. Go congrat. Her: forsythia1. My other friends used to ride with me until they discovered boys. Does anyone have ideas for feed troughs? I know coke lids work well as water bins but I want to make troughs.

If you aren't actually putting water in the trough, foil squashed into a trough shapes works well default smiley :). Or a cereal box, if you cut it so only the side (or bottom depending on size that you want/that it is) and a bit all around are left.
