Equine influences continue to pop up in home and in fashion as horse prints, photography, statues, bridles, saddles, and even riding boots appear in the world's most popular home decor magazines. I am not a equestrienne, but I do have an appreciation of this strong, strapping species. If you are like me, stylish home accessories provide a suitable substitute to having a stallion of your own. This ideabook provides ideas for displaying all your pretty horses, no stable required:

| Equestrian Chic works well with layers of texture. Equine artwork, exposed brick, hide rug and the leather sofa work together create a wonderful juxtaposition with the soft, powder blue toss pillows and drapery panels. |

| Wild horses become domesticated when photographed and framed. This affectionate pair reminds us that love abounds. Can you spot a third horse in this photo? Yes, there is a white statue that awaits at the end of the hallway. |

Thoroughbreds grazing among sunflowers and cow-printed carpet tiles make this city-slicker dining room also fit for the farmhouse.

| When your riding days are over, proudly display your saddle on the wall. Throw in a few accents to reinforce the look. |

| Saddle up to the kitchen island in one of these contoured wooden stools. The craftsmanship not only makes them comfortable, but they also help to maintain posture while seated. |
The bar stools, shown here in a glossy black, have turned legs that echo the same design as the dining chairs. These two seating options alone help to introduce a traditional feel in this contemporary kitchen.

patscats2 Oh, how beautiful, thanks for posting these. Those first 3 along with the spaces they were in, were all gorgeous. That fourth looked like the horses were coming into the room. I do love horse artwork and statues and have to get out and find me some of each.

lsc327 I don't believe those are prints of Thoroughbreds - they're Paint horses. Still very pretty, though!
