Celebrity hair stylist Sally Hershberger has listed her 3-bedroom, 5-bath, 1960 Beverly Hills home on the market for $5.5 million. Aside from the stunning, floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Hollywood Hills, I couldn't help but notice that Sally has a major thing for horsies. In perhaps the two most prominent spots in her home — above the master bed and the dining table — she proudly Read more

Make Wall Art Out of Thrifted Picture Frames 2010-08-04 08:00:34

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 Read more

Sculptural Horse Roundup

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 Read more

Stella McCartney's Brilliant Equestrian Chandelier Returns

We all know that Stella McCartney is an animal lover, but forgoing leather isn't the only way she shows it. McCartney created an astonishing crystal sculpture in the shape of a horse in 2004 for a fashion exhibit inside the Great Hall of Belsay Castle, an English Heritage castle in the UK, and it has returned for the Easter holiday. "Lucky Spot" was made from thousands of hanging crystals, and is Read more

Would You Pasture This Pony in Your Garden?

I don't think I've revealed to CasaSugar readers yet that I've always been a bit of a horse freak. In fact, I've been riding, reading about, and dreaming about horses since I was a wee babe. Not even injuries, buckings, and bitings have dissuaded me from this preoccupation. Given that history, there's no question whether or not I'd give this Teak Horse Sculpture ($4,700) a home on my range: I Read more

Horse Poops on Woman's Head

I love the expression, "You buy your ticket, you take your ride." In this case "buying your ticket" involves crawling under a horse's behind, and "taking your ride" means having it sh*t on your head. Or, as the eloquent person who posted this on YouTube put it, "Horse takes a dump on stupid ladys head." What more is there to say, really? Read more
