Where did everybody go? Does anyone have any ideas for what to use as my arena dirt/sand?

4 arena: Popsicle sticks!!!
4 sand: well, it's small enough, so just use sand!!!

If you look on secondchancestables YouTube channel you can fine what she uses, I don't remember exactly what it is but you can get it at Michaels I think.

I don't have a micheals anywhere near me. But we have a micheals frozen custard and I don't think that's it.

Get dine ground dirt

I have these Schleichs:

Quite honestly, Breyer's can get annoying. No offense to any Breyer Fans. They scratch way more easily than Schleich's, and they are too costy.(Let's keep this our little Schleich secret)

i have these:
gypsy stallion (retired i think)
Hildalgo (paint stallion)
paint mare (retired)
mustang stallion (rearing/retired?)
paint foal (retired?)
fresian mare (retired)
fresian stallion
bay mare with polo wraps (not sure of breed/retired?)

i only have a couple breyers, but i keep them in a special place where they wont get scratched

Okay so I know you guys aren't big Papo fans and I will admit the horses they make are mostly hideous, but have you SEEN the people? They're pretty decent and there are like 7 riders and 7 farm people (rough estimate!) to choose from. Happy hen has them with some of the farm people on sale right now... Anyway they're mostly like $5 and less at happy hen I think! They have young riders, and adults! I might buy a few!!

I honestly hate papo horses

Yes but look at the people! My library used to have the knights and princesses I remember they were at LEAST alright!

What Schleich things should I make for my friends birthday? Iwas thinking a blanket or two, maybe a rope halter, a fancy lead rope, I wanted to do a saddle so maybe that... Ideas?

You could make a nice show halter/fancy leadrope

Those sound great! I'm making a portable barn with lots-ish of tack, a tack room, 5 stalls, and maybe a jump or two and maybe some fencing.

For my friend.

Oh maybe I'll make her a tack room... She's making a barn. How is 5 stalls portable?!

Yeah I can't make show halters. I tried. It's horrid!!

Actually maybe I'll make her a cross country course!!

I made a halter for one out of yarn once.... It ended up lookin like a cowboy catch halter lol

I tried making a halter once complete failure

I tried polo wraps.... They went all the way up the legs lol
