Rein 'em In

Rein 'em In

I have been making reins for about 7 years now.  My first set of mohair reins I bought 8 years ago.  I don't remember where I bought them, but they were a natural color, split reins about 10 feet long and I LOVED them!  I think they were a mohair blend because I wore them out :-)  

I tried to find another set to replace them but nope, nada, nowhere could I find them, so......I decided to make my own.  I found a place to buy 100% Mohair so I bought some, bought a book and braided my own.  Again a natural color. 


I enjoyed making them so much that I made another set.  This time a Dark Brown color.  



Here is Jordan and I last year at a CTR at Turkey Creek.  So I have used these same brown reins on Jordan for 7 years now.  I still love these reins.  So I started making them and donating them to some of the rides I went to for prizes.  Turns out they were a big hit.  So nice that others liked them too.  

Now I have sold a few sets now to friends and so I decided to setup a facebook page to promote them.  




So now I make reins that I love and share them with my friends.  Don't get much better :-)
