Our local grant winner is looking for a few items to help them build out their set of family-friendly activities at the Guided Hope Ranch. If you’re a crafty person or would just like to help, read on!
Birdhouse arena boxes: These will be assembled and painted by children and adults and mounted to our arena posts for games they play. There are pre-cut kits that would mount easily on the posts on Amazon, but if someone has access to other pre-cut kits, they are open to other styles with top open/close lids.
Supplies needed: 10 birdhouse kits, paints, brushes, mounting screws.
Barn board painting: The painting of the old fence boards was a big hit at their Fall Fun Festival, and they want to add more supplies so they can be take-home mementos for guests. Sometimes guests want to draw pictures from their experiences, while others paint scriptures and sayings that share hope and encouragement to others and leave them behind to decorate the ranch.
Supplies needed: Barn boards of varying sizes, paints, brushes, hanging wire.
Horseshoe picture frames: These are a nice way to bring home a memory, featuring a personal painting or printed photo from the day. New horse shoes are best, can can be found locally in Berthoud at Oleo Acres or Tractor Supply for $2 each, and plastic frames at Hobby Lobby are around $2 each.
Supplies needed: horseshoes, paint, brushes, plastic frames, hanging wire, glue gun, photo paper, color printer, ink.
T-shirts: Kids and adults can choose a “hoof print” from a favorite horse to add to their shirt design. These horses have quite the artist’s signature! White and light colored t-shirts of a variety of sizes would be appreciated.
Supplies needed: t-shirts, paint, brushes.
