The Continental Braid

Show season is upon us! Equestrian show season, that is:) For most of us, we've got to have our horses looking their absolute best in shows, and this means bathing, clipping, grooming, spraying, and, who could forget- braiding! Now for me, until recently I hated braiding my pony. He's an arab, and I absolutely hate to arab-braid! (It's required for Arabians in most professional shows.) However, that all changed when today, as I was surfing the web, I discovered the continental braid! It's a super pretty, super easy way to braid your horse's mane, and, it's accepted for arabs! Shown below are:

Right- Diamond braid (variation of continental) 

My life has just been made so, so much easier:)
