How to make an :-
Arabian Costume

Part 2.....

Now make a smaller braid and form a loop at the bottom, sow but leave the loop free

It should reach girth to chest piece. Sow free bit to chest piece

The girth should fit thru the loop like so

The longer bits of collar are use to tie it to the horse

Now you can add tassels! (From the one's you put to the side earlier)

Right cowry shells or whatever you want to call them. You can either sculpt your own or use something else. I found pasta that's perfect for them.

Before painting and gluing you should line them up until they look right.

Here's my sculpted lot.

In the end I decided on a mix of the 2

Now for the bridle.
Basically the bridle is mostly braiding with the bit, chain for noseband and any tassels/beading you'd like.

And there it is - all finished
