How to Decorate a Horse's Stalls

Horses can get bored if they're kept in a stall for long periods of time, so decorating your horse's stall is a good idea. A stylish stall can be more fun to work in, too. Keep in mind that horses will try to chew almost anything, so choose appropriate products or place them well out of reach of your horse's curious mouth.

Instructions

  1. Choose Decorations

    • 1

      Make food decorations. A sweet potato threaded on a rope is a great toy. It may not be very pretty to you, but your horse will think so.

    • 2

      Plastic mirrors are available from horse supply catalogs. Choose a colorful, fun style to upgrade a dreary stall.

    • 3

      Add a nameplate. An engraved metal or carved wood name plate identifies your horse with style.

    • 4

      Brightly colored horse toys add interest and color to the stall. Durable balls and treat holders can be found at pet stores and tack shops.

    • 5

      Hang your ribbons! If you and your horse have won ribbons or awards, display them for all to see.
