This is definitely not your run-of-the-mill pet! tsharp25 shared this pic of a lil horse sneaking in a bite to eat in the Spotted! group:

Luckily this sweet little horse has a thick coat to keep him warm during the snowy Canadian Winter. See more pics below!

If you want to be a cute capturer, share your own video or photo of your favorite furry friends with the Spotted! group.

When I was pregnant with my baby, I knew that I wanted to create an unusual, fun, and eye-catching art installation for his room. I latched onto the idea of creating a collage out of some frames that I'd been collecting at thrift stores.

I started with this mismatched jumble of frames, which I painted all black. Then I had pieces of 1/8-inch-thick birch plywood cut to fit each frame. With help from a design-savvy artist friend, I was then able to create the outline for my project.

I've been seeing a lot of equestrian accents in homes lately, and I don't mean cowboys and Indians. From ceramic bookends to horse head hooks, horsing around with your decorating can be chic and modern. Take a cue from the green ceramic Trojan horses in The Bachelorette mansion and use them sparingly in an accent color to keep the look fresh. Or create a monochromatic vignette that includes a white horse figurine and assorted white vases. See my picks below! Have you used horse sculptures in your home's vignettes?
