I’m in love with this week’s Dude Ranch theme! All good cowgirls and cowboys take care of their beloved horses. So of course they must keep them snuggly warm! Today I will show you how to make quick and easy horse blankets for your doll’s horse.
Supplies:
- Felt
- Tacky Glue
- Embellishments: ribbon, buttons, fabric paint, glitter glue
For the blanket I used one standard sized piece of felt. I kept the felt the size it came in…no cutting down. Next the blanket was decorated with ribbons and buttons. Save your glitter glue and fabric paint for last; once all other embellishments are glued in place. Let dry.
My daughters and I had a blast decorating the blankets. One daughter chose a simple sophisticated pattern and the other went for an all out glammed blanket.
The blankets fit nicely on the horses! Now they are well loved and feeling cozy!
Cute!
AWESOME!

Wonderful idea, Brandy. Thank you for the instructions. i think we can make a nice new blanket for Butterbrandy this week. The one she came with isn’t quite big enough.
They’re too cute!!
