Mother's Day Treats for a Horsey Mum

Mother's Day is fast approaching and its time to be thankful for all those horsey mums out there! Whether your mum is always on hand to help you go out competing, watches your weekly lessons through gale force wind and freezing rain or gets up extra early to muck out your pony whilst you get ready for school, this Mother's Day be sure to treat her and say thanks for all the hard work and dedication it takes to keep these ponies going (and paid for!).  Whatever type of horsey mum you have, here are a few ideas to show how grateful you are with a special gift this Mothering Sunday.
For the Dressage Diva, who perhaps competes and trains herself, our LeMieux Dressage Square Gift Sets make a luxury Mother's Day gift for an equestrian mum. Choose from a range of colours including this beautiful Benetton Blue.

If you want your mum to put her feet up this Mother's Day, why not treat her to the Beautiful Horses book. Beautiful Horses showcases the elegance, strength, beauty and variety of breeds from the gentle giant Shire to The Arabian. Filled full of stunning photography and breed features.  You could even team this book with one of our horse mugs and make your mum a lovely cup of tea with her favourite biscuits on Mother's Day morning.  That way she might even enjoy a sleepy Sunday!
If you are planning to take your mum out for dinner on Mother's Day why not opt for a piece of equestrian themed jewellery she could wear. If your mum loves exploring the countryside, the Happy Hack pendant is a firm favourite.  Alternatively the Horse Lovers brooch looks wonderful on a jacket or jumper and any of the horse shoe earrings are delightful for every day wear.
As we head towards the end of another winter every equestrian is starting to feel in need of a spot of pampering. Any of the products from the Naked Horse bath and body range are a lovely way to treat your mum. We have even put together the Horse Lovers Pampering Set which will make mum feel extra special.
Finally if you are looking for something a little different for the horsey mum who has everything, these great equestrian themed Backdoorshoes are perfect for slipping on and off when going to and from the yard. Ideal to wear when popping in and out the equestrian home too!
We hope you'll find the perfect gift for your horsey mum from our suggestions above or check out our wider range for further inspiration. Simply team your present with a thoughtful Mother's Day card and just remember to get up extra early to give your mum a day off from all the mucking out!

Made in Britain!

After a miserable (weather wise!) Bank Holiday we are busy looking forward to our upcoming buying shows and choosing the final new products for our 2014 Horse Diva gift collections.  Whenever possible we try and support British businesses and we thought you might like to know about some of our favourite Made in Britain equestrian products, so here are just a few of Britain's best buys (in our opinion anyway!).

Our popular horsey gifts from Angelic Hen are hand crafted in their workshop in the grounds of Wyastone Lets, in the Wye Valley.   The range of horsey themed products from Angelic Hen includes one of the first products we sourced when launching TheHorse Diva - the Gone Riding and Mucking Out Door Hangers and these remain one of our best sellers to this day.


Looking to some of our newer ranges, the fun collection of Coolhorsesocks offers a British Manufactured everyday horse riding sock as well as an equestrian competition sock that has been tried and tested by ourselves in all weather conditions, equestrian disciplines and multiple scenarios.  Available in many fun and funky designs and complete in smart packaging the Coolhorsesock range makes a great gift for the female horse owner.       


Our beautiful range of horse and pony themed mugs feature many that are made within the UK.  You can't help but smile at the Bean Riding Mug from The Compost Heap.  Their coordinating greetings cards also feature similar images and are chlorine free, recycled and printed on pulp from renewable forests as well as being printed using vegetable inks!  For other equestrian mug ideas the Splimple range are all best sellers and are all made at Jersey Pottery.   




One of our favourite new collections to take on this year is that from Milly Green.  Milly is a UK based designer who has recently expanded her range of products to include cosmeticsbags, pencil cases, notebooks and more.  Beautifully made in the UK each item has this proudly written on the label. 


We hope you like our favourite British designs and will join with us in buying British this year!  If you know of any other equestrian products or horsey gifts made in Britain that you think will be suitable for our website please do get in touch, we'd love to hear from you.
