I once renovated a home that had this absolutely hideous horse themed wallpaper all over the first floor. It was a repeating pattern of a huge very detailed horse raising it's front legs up in a bucking motion.

It was once of those wall paper patters that is just plain hard to look at no matter what you feel about the subject it depicts. The colors were weird, the spacing was weird and the effect of having it everywhere made for one of the ugliest interior design choices I have ever come across. The first project was ripping out the wall paper.

I love oil paintings of horses and I have seven of them displayed throughout my home. They range from a very large 4' x 7' picture I have of mustangs running across a prairie to a tiny picture of a foal drinking from a stream that hangs in my bathroom.

I have always been fascinated by horses. I was never that crazy about riding them but I could look at them all day long. There is something about their faces and their musculature that has always held my attention. I figure that it is my home and I like horses so that is what I am going to put on my walls.

I actually used to know a guy that had a very large stuffed horse in his house. He was not a huge horse guy and did not have any connection to the horse that had been stuffed. He just thought it looked cool and different and it was definitely a conversation starter. I didn't even know it was possible to stuff a horse but I guess if it has skin and once drew breath it is possible to stuff.
