Overview

Use this theme for the horse lover you know.
It’s always useful for people who own horses, but they don’t have to own one to appreciate this theme.

Gift Ideas

Think about things that a horse lover would love to receive or do:
- For those that have a horse (or access to one), consider gear like a saddle, bridle, riding helmet. Even if they don’t have a horse, jeans or a cowboy hat could work here.
- Activities like an afternoon of horseback riding/lessons or a hay ride.
- Events like show jumping, dressage, a rodeo, polo or even seeing a sports team with a horse based name (eg: Broncos, Colts, Mustangs).
- A rocking horse or stick horse could be great for a younger giftee (or for those who are young at heart).
You can keep the theme simple and just present gifts around horses or you can incorporate other themes. For instance:
- This theme has a lot of overlap with our Rodeo/Cowboy theme so have a look at that for more ideas.
- Horse lovers often enjoy many other outdoor activities and sports. Have a look at our Outdoorsy or Sporty themes.
Stuck for ideas? Consider giving to a charity that provides a sanctuary for neglected or abused horses.
On a budget? Watch a horse based movie with your giftee (eg: Seabiscuit, The Horse Whisperer).
Think outside the box. Don’t be afraid to stretch associations between a gift and a theme:
- Consider what might work with the term ‘horse’ power (eg: cars, boats, motorcycles-real, toy or just take a ride in one).
- Iron horse could represent a motorcycle, but is also an old term used for a train.
- Horseback riders need rope, consider a skipping rope in your gift ideas.

Wrapping

See if you can find wrapping that fits the theme (eg: horses on the wrapping paper) or attach your own horse images to the gift.
Try using rope instead of ribbon.
Tie a small rodeo related gift into the ribbon around the gift (eg: a horseshoe).

Presentation

Lassos could be worked in here. Try buying some string and having your giftee use a makeshift lasso to rope their gifts from across the room.
When you present each gift, try to work it into the theme with a short explanation. For instance, if you’re giving someone jeans, you might say “I got you some jeans so you don’t get saddle sores on our next trail ride”
Use quotes or phrases that relate to your theme when you present the gifts or in your card. For example:
- I heard from the horse’s mouth that you were having a birthday. Have a good one!
- Saddle up and have a great birthday!
- Wild horses couldn’t drag me away from you. Happy anniversary!
- Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.
- Get up on your high horse this year.
