Here are my stall curtains set up the way I intended them to be used. Behind this is my tack room...where I also hung plastic tarp over the top so the heater would actually heat it!
This is the side where the tack stall/dressing room entrance is...and before anyone says anything..I know the picture on the wall is too small. I am just starting my collection though..so more will be on the way in the future!
Here is Oliver's wreath..
..and here he is in his stall...under his very own heat lamps! Yeah - some trainers kind of poked fun at me for doing this..but I had body shaved Oliver 2 days before we found out about the snow forecast!
...and did it ever snow. Too bad that it was not quite cold enough to stick for very long. I worked so hard on these stall decorations that on my way home Friday night - it actually HURT to hold the cell phone up to my ear!!!

Your attention to detail is inspiring! I love that you thought to bring heat lamps, I'm sure Oliver appreciated it!
Okay, Julie, I have an over-the-top on the detail front for you: a Christmas tree suggestion. Think Martha Stewart goes to the barn. (Well, actually she does - a LOT - she has Friesians and miniature donkeys!)
First, locate a silver-tip fir. You are going to have to order such a wonderful tree online but I guar-an-teeeee you will find these trees to be utterly gorgeous and very unusual. They grow only at elevations above 6000 feet so most come from the Sierras in California.
Then - all decorations should be sidesaddle-themed. You can do this. You CAN! I have faith in you!
Well, maybe not for this year but next, perhaps?
