OK inspirational exam talk over. Let's have a look at some fun projects to keep you occupied over the holidays :)
1. Cataloging
It needs doing! Stop putting it off! Get that collection catalogued. If you want to learn how to put together your own spreadsheet check out this tutorial here: https://www.facebook.com/pg/chestnutridgemodels/photos/?tab=album&album_id=10154186797211482
2. Create a FB Page/Website for your Models
What could be more fun than your own website/blog/facebook page devoted to your model horses! Maybe you will do one for your custom studio or your stud or maybe just a fun place to share images of your models. If you do create one let me know and I'll share it with the followers :D
3. Write up Your Show Results
I know you've been putting it off. Get them typed up!
4. Create a Photo Story
You don't really see many of these any more. Create your own photo story about your horses. If you want to send it to us or give us a link we'll share it on this Blog.
5. Enter a Photoshow
There are loads of photoshows going on all of the time. Go outside, get some nice pictures and enter a photoshow.

6. Do Some Dusting
Is it raining? Probably if you live in the UK. Go and dust those horses!
7. Create a New Performance Set Up
Get creative! Create a funny scene, or something usual. Maybe you could even make a really fun themed jump? Create something new ready for the Summer show series.
8. Follow a Tutorial
All you have to do is google 'model horse tutorial' and a whole world opens up to you. Maybe you'd like to use a Chestnut Ridge one? Or someone elses? Entirely up to you, follow a tutorial and learn a new skill.
9. Have a Clear Out
Dig into that body boxes, or those boxes and boxes of tack and have a bit of a clear out. Maybe you could put some items to one side to donate to a raffle at your next show? Or sell off some unwanted projects to raise some money for a new horse!
10. Enter a Competition
Find a new model horse competition to enter. You could enter our current one here: http://www.chestnutridge.co.uk/icelandic-competition-113-w.asp
