The other half is somewhat organized in the shed. But since I bought another saddle (dressage), it's a bit hard to fit two saddles in my boot! I need to find a way to sort it out better. :/<br /><br />bonita of <a href="http://www.aridinghabit.blogspot.com.au/" rel="nofollow">A Riding Habit</a> Lavender and Twillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06331125027969557539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-77749285351580724832015-10-20T20:04:59.858-06:002015-10-20T20:04:59.858-06:00I need to organize myself better.

And yet we still have a saddle sitting on a dining room chair and a girth hanging in the spare bedroom closet. I bring stuff home to sell, get annoyed that eBay wants my bank account info and then never sell it and it just lives with us. So I have no advice because I can't even organize my tack with 2/3 tack rooms.Olivia @ DIY Horse Ownershiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16138490796669110523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-91881442801344572912015-10-20T11:41:25.747-06:002015-10-20T11:41:25.747-06:00I have a personal tack locker that's big enoug...I have a personal tack locker that's big enough for one saddle rack, four bridle/halter hooks (used for bridle, lunge line, and helmet bag), a couple small shelves (used for miscellaneous extra grooming and care supplies), a couple extra wall hooks (one is used for my L'il Dude stirrups for the kiddos), and whatever else I can cram in around the grain can (currently just first aid kit and grooming box). Then I have a second saddle rack in the community tack shed, and sometimes I borrow a bridle hook in there because it's warmer than my locker. The rest is either somewhere in my car or garage, unless I can convince my husband that really the garage is too cold so they should live in (and take over) our bedroom closet instead.that.brenna.girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01060420909910477454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-16118123409247504282015-10-20T11:08:19.607-06:002015-10-20T11:08:19.607-06:00A corner of the house has been made into a tack co...A corner of the house has been made into a tack corner. Because I am an inconvenient mix of OCD and permanently in a hurry, everything has its place in a complex set of bins and drawers, but in those drawers chaos reigns. Also I think I have bandages, bits and boots scattered all over the country in my wake. I'm sure some of my stuff also actually belongs to my trainer, but neither of us have any idea which. It just kind of gets shuttled off to whoever needs it.Firnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07805076661186739474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-15304327344644725592015-10-20T11:00:47.868-06:002015-10-20T11:00:47.868-06:00i recognize that sticker!! but yea my tack area is...i recognize that sticker!! but yea my tack area isn't the most organized either. i'm set up in a corner - convenient for just dumping stuff lol. and have a set of drawers instead of a trunk. and not nearly enough hooks... never enough hooks!emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-17253330962571065782015-10-20T10:24:53.893-06:002015-10-20T10:24:53.893-06:00(in addition to taking up one whole wall of the ta...(in addition to taking up one whole wall of the tack room at the barn where I board...) :/Horseyhabithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13562602210138301545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-9706592102868032542015-10-20T10:24:15.206-06:002015-10-20T10:24:15.206-06:00I put up a picture of Rob Schneider as his charact...I put up a picture of Rob Schneider as his character from the Waterboy (in meme format) saying "YOU CAN DO IT!!" <br /><br />:DHorseyhabithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13562602210138301545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-56406325516731773722015-10-20T10:09:12.057-06:002015-10-20T10:09:12.057-06:00Things that I use a lot get kept in my mud room.

Things that I don't use and will probably never ever use again, but I can't get rid of because I might need them someday and I know that day will be the day after I got rid of them are stored in the basement. I also have an assorted collection of girths, saddle pads and random parts living in the trailer because those things get forgotten or break. And, of course, on any given day tack can be found spread out all over the property between the barns, trailer, arena, and house. <br /><br />In short, no, there is no organization or system.

All of my tack - including 3 saddles, god knows how many bridles, 2 harnesses, about 15 blankets, I have no idea how many saddle pads, buckets, boots, polos, bells, etc etc etc - lives in my trailer tack room. Did I mention It's a 2 horse BP? Not a lot of wigge room in there.<br />But, whenever I trailer anywhere I have EVERYTHING already in there - and never can make the mistake of forgetting anything at home. So that's a plus!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15902291220984883182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-44329540228830494512015-10-20T08:18:19.428-06:002015-10-20T08:18:19.428-06:00My stuff is kind of everywhere.

I have a 12x12 tack room, plus a cabinet between my cross ties, plus I have a saddle stand in the back of one cross tie (I never tie them correctly, I just hook them to one tie and leave them in the center of the barn because I can. ha. I have the exact same Stanley trunk as you do with some stickers, though I've always kept it in my dad's house (on the farm) with all my show stuff in it that is meant to stay "clean." sarahczspotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08353554801201714511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-59242325209796353292015-10-20T08:05:39.060-06:002015-10-20T08:05:39.060-06:00I share a small tack room (think like 10x10ish) wi...I share a small tack room (think like 10x10ish) with one other rider. It's heaven. We both have space for a large tack trunk, 2 saddle racks, 1 boot rack, 1 bridle hook, and 4+ other hooks. The room is rounded out with a chest of drawers that we use for saddle pads/boots/polos/first aid stuff/clippers/etc. Plus whip holders. And another set of hooks for lead ropes and lunge lines. I keep my grooming kit and bathing stuff stashed under my saddle racks, but everything else is hung or put away neatly in it's spot. I LOVE OUR TACK ROOM SO MUCH.

Since I have horses at home and a horse boarded my stuff is scattered about. I have a lovely tack locker at the barn and then I have two tack trunks at home along with my horse trailer tack room. I definitely use the horse trailer tack room but it's very poor winter storage as it gets very damp.

I mean really?) and b) I never seem to get around to cleaning/organizing it. I can't even imagine keeping my stuff in a normal tackroom at a normal barn. The BO would hate me.jenjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01737679332792618499noreply@blogger.com
