With several equestrian communities near Big South Fork National Park in Jamestown, Tennessee, you can just imagine that horseshoe décor is popular. Some people buy equestrian-themed items from catalogs or websites; others....um....use the materials at hand.
This is rugged country and horses are generally shod every six weeks or so. Shoes can be "re-set" several times but eventually, they need to be replaced. What do you do with all those used horseshoes? How about horseshoe decor; you'd be surprised at some of the creative ideas you'll see in cabins around here. The toilet paper holder is just the beginning!
You'll see horseshoes made into coat hooks and used as the base for coat stands, made into lamps and wine racks, used to spell out the owner's last name over the front door...limited only by the shape of the shoes and your imagination!
Not only are horseshoes turned into useful or decorative items, cabins generally sport equestrian-themed bedding, shower curtains and bath accessories, dishes, placemats, pillows, throw rugs...you'll know you're in the heart of horse country here at the Big South Fork!
