I've been very spoilt this Christmas Feeling very lucky to add these to my herd. The first two were my presents from my parents and I knew what these would be as I'd ordered them myself. I hadn't seen them until Christmas day though so they were still a bit of a surprise really! The first one hasn't had his name finalised yet but he's a great colour I've got a theme going for these so he will get a name and won't join my list of nameless ponies, I promise! Next is Shadow Man If any of you remember any of the other horses in my collection, he's Starman's (slightly nervous-looking) little brother! The next two were a total surprise really. My boyfriend wanted to get me Julips but didn't have a clue how to go about ordering, so I gave him a load of vague ideas with a list of moulds and colours that Laura could do. He picked the mould and colour combination from my list so I really didn't know what I'd get. Not disappointed! First up is this lovely grey mare, who I think I'm going to call 'Sixpence' for the colour and Christmas connection. And the photos of this one just don't do her justice, she's gorgeous. I'm thinking of possibly calling her 'Mary', as an accidental portrait of a mare that I used to work with. I ordered a portrait of her before Laura took over Julip and never received it, so I suppose it's a very convenient accident that this looks like a pretty good match for her! I've already got a model of her first foal all grown up, and a model of her second foal as a yearling, so it's nice to have the family set Can't wait to get these out to some shows in the new year Thank you, Laura, for your hard work on these! They're all really special

What a gorgeous lot, don’t think I could pick a favourite if I tried! Me neither, and nor could I pick a least favourite, so I suppose that's worked out well!

I can't pick a favourite either! They are all incredibly stunning. I love all the dappley goodness and those braids are stunning! I love Shadow Man's expression, he looks so humble and adorable! <3

The moulded plaits look amazing, so different and they really suit that shape horse, they give him a really nice neckline. And more lovely dapples.
