Many of you may remember, or are still contemplating ordering, horse hair bracelets from your horse or Sera's hair. A friend came up with a *great* idea of making gift certificates for your friends instead of stealing their horses hair or perfect idea if your in two different ends of the earth!
Its a great way to give them something unforgettable for the Holidays!
Step 1: Just let me know what you want based on whats behind the cut and we'll price it out. Pay-Pal (or other form) the money over, I'll mail it directly to your friend or send it back to you-- your choice. (Friend chooses size, color combo etc)
Step 2: I'll create a one of a kind gift certificate (electronic or paper) linked to the order. The mail orders come with a zip lock bag, directions and a decorated information card (all the bells and whistles) to make it a real holiday treat. The Electronic ones come with directions as well.
Step3: They mail the hair and the certificate in and receive a custom, one of a kind bracelet of their choosing.
I thought that was a pretty great idea! Let me know if you have any questions. Post here or aynesj at gmail.com
Horse Hair Bracelets from Sera' (and your horse!)
"And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house.O all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi. " ~ The Gift of the Magi by O' Henry
The classic story is of a wife and husband who sell their most prized possessions so that the other may have a beautiful gift for Christmas. His gold watch, (she buys a chain for it) and she sells her hair, (he buys her beautiful combs).

Step 3- Sizing!
Measure your wrist. Womens is about 7" men about 8" (should be about a 1/2 inch larger than your measurement, or what your tighness prefrence is)
Step 4- If you want your horses hair-- ( I can do up to four horses in one bracelet- if you have more, lets talk)
A. Take the longest hairs possible from the bottom of the tail. Cut out of several places to get color varriation and so a big chunk isnt obviously missing!
B. I need about 18 inches, double for a necklace and about the thickness of a pencil
C. Use a brading band or a small rubber band at the top to secure the bunch.
D. Shampoo it with plain ole' shampoo.. do not show sheen etc! Dry before mailing.
E. Do not braid the hair/ knot- should be free of knots.
F. Place in ziplock bag with a slip of paper with your name, live journal name , address, and e-mail
Pop it in the mail!

To order, please e-mail me with what your requesting and I will send you back a total. I will do special orders (necklaces etc) and international orders! Anything is possible, just e-mail me! *** Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery!*** (will be shorter than that, but its sometimes hard to braid with hooves!)
