I got nice ones in cards n things for weddings along with silver sixpence pieces.
Failing that speak nicely to some horsey people and beg an old shoe that you could scrub up and paint and add ribbons yourself:lol:

If you can get a horse shoe it can be decorated up. Have done a few :)

Hi I have made lots of original horse shoes in satin, tartan etc and have also done real horse shoes. These are my personal favourite but are heavy for the child to give. I bought the shoes from the Smiddy at Haster, Don Sutherland very reasonable prices.

ask mrs miller in the made in caithness shop, she's a lovely woman and has made to order for a friend of mine before so just describe what your after and i'm sure she'd do it.

Julia Rollo from West Watten makes them to order. She is very reasonable and they beautifully made. She did a fab black cat for me and embroidered the initials on it too.
