I also made this dreamcatcher for our daughter. One of her oldest and tamest chickens passed away so I clipped some feathers from her wings and used them for this.
Here's another of my coiled horsehair baskets. It's my biggest one yet at 7" in diameter. I think it turned out very well. :) I do take custom orders for my baskets, but the bases are all pretty much one of a kind, and I would need an entire tail in order to ensure I had enough hair for...
Here are a few more horse hair baskets I've been working on.
I've recently started taking commissions on these...here's one I just finished using a customer's own horse's hair. :)
Coiled horse hair baskets--something new I've been working on lately. :)

I have ideas for a bunch more! :)

So many talented people here!!! I've been making all kinds of horsehair jewelry and keepsakes for 10+ years now, and I love it. :) Lately, I've been working with resin and making horse/pet hair resin beads and pendants, as well as equestrian themed resin/wood trays and wall hangings. I'm...
