Equestrian-Inspired Spaces

And they're off!

Nothing gets my heart pounding faster than cheering on my chosen horse in the Kentucky Derby every year. I have an undying love for this event that stems from my years of horseback riding growing up. Fun fact: I really wanted to be a professional jockey for awhile... unfortunately, those career aspirations faded away by about 9th grade, since I was already 5'8". Oh well. :) I did compete on my high school's equestrian team though, so I guess that makes up for it? Ok, maybe not quite the equivalent. I never lost interest in the Derby though, and every year, the first Saturday in May revolves around that two-minute horse race.

In honor of the 139th Run for the Roses, I thought I'd round up a few of my favorite equestrian-inspired spaces. I think of this style as classic with a touch of utilitarian, worn-in/rustic, and comfortable. It leans towards farmhouse, maybe? Let's take a tour of my take on equestrian-inspired decor.









Man, collecting these photos sure made me miss my days of horseback riding. Maybe one day I'll have a chance to get back into it.

Anyone going to or hosting a Derby party this weekend? I'll definitely be making some mint juleps in honor of the race and placing some friendly bets on who I think will be the winning horse!

  2. كيفية لمكافحة البراغيث: من الأساليب المستخدمة لمكافحة حشرات البيت التي يكثر وجودها في الأماكن المقفلة والتي لا تتعرض للتيارات الهووائية كالبراغيث أن نضع اعداد من أوراق الريحان الجافة في قطعةٍ من الشاش، ثم نضعها في المقر الذي تتواجد

    أسلوب لمكافحة النمل: من الوسائل الطبيعية المستخدمة في مكافحة حشرات البيت أن نقوم بتقشير الخيار ونضع اعداد مناسبة من ذلك القشر في الأماكن التي يتنشر فيها النمل وسيتم التخلص منها لأنّ قشر الخيار من المواد السامة لحشرة النمل.
    أسلوب لمكافحة الصراصير: نحضر اعداد من الطحين أو السكر ونخلطه مع مسحوق حمض البوريك ونضعه في الحجرة التي تتواجد فيها الصراصير وستأتي تلك الحشرة لتأكل من ذلك الخليط ثم سوف يتم التخلص منها بتصرف حمض البوريك، ويجب أن نقوم بتلك الخطوة لفترة أسبوعين كاملين لمكافحة جميع الصراصير، كما يمكن بخ تلك الحشرات بمزيجٍ من الصابون والماء.
