Let's Countdown to Christmas Together
There’s something special about December in the equestrian world. The darker mornings, the bright yard lights, the cosy layers, the shared smiles between riders. It all blends into a rhythm we seem to fall into together and every year, it still feels a little magical.
The Equestrian Advent Calendar is my way of celebrating that feeling. A countdown filled with thoughtful finds, seasonal treats, and small discoveries that make this time of year brighter. Each door is chosen with the same care we use when tending to our horses: noticing what feels good, what lifts the day, and what brings a touch of joy to winter.
Some gifts will spark nostalgia, others will invite curiosity, and many will simply make you smile. You might find something to enjoy yourself, something to share, or something that becomes part of your own December traditions.
And on Christmas Day, there’s a small digital card waiting, a moment of calm and kindness to close the season. Whether you open each door with a cup of tea, during a quiet moment at the yard, or as a way to reconnect with your festive spirit…
I’m so happy you’re here for the countdown.
The Rider Edit
Small Christmas gifts have a quiet way of creating connection. Horses never expect them, yet they lean into the care we wrap into every choice
A new saddle pad in a colour that makes you smile but also looks beautiful on them. A brush that feels good in your hand and soft on their coat. Little things that become shared moments: part practical, part joyful, entirely yours together.
If you’d like to peek inside this year’s collection, you can open the Advent Calendar. Each door reveals one of the presents I’ve chosen to share. .
