IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING CUSTOM TACK AVAILABILITY

All my tack is hand-made. Unless I have something pre-made available on the Production List, all completed tack orders will have a construction period during which I make the tack. When I am back-logged, I frequently stop excepting orders so that new orders do not have to wait 12 months or more for delivery. Currently (2021), I am accepting custom orders only on a limited, restricted basis, trying to keep delivery wait down to 3-4 months on accepted orders. See Work Load Page for additional information before ordering tack from the catalog or If you need tack now, please go to our list of completed, in-stock tack: the Production List.

Kits, Instructional Materials, Tack Supplies, & Production List items are always available without restriction.

This requires a custom fitting sheet to be completed; may also require the model horse in question to be sent to the to The Unicorn Woman for fitting; and may involve a non-refundable fitting fee.
