Calendars and Organizers

2013 Blacksmith Calendar Big changes have come to the 2013 Blacksmith calendar. After producing it yearly since 2000, our friend Gill Fahrenwald has handed the reins to Farrriers Greeting cards to take up production - a tough act to follow as Gill is an expert on all things blacksmithing and has a massive personal collection of vintage images that he drew upon to make these calendars each year. The biggest change is the addition of full color images and backgrounds. Another is quite a bit of descriptive copy and related trivia. We've expanded the subject matter to include some less traditional images and we've lowered the price by $5.00. The calendar is the same size as previous versions (11" x 17" open) and is printed on the same high quality, glossy paper. We hope that you'll give it a look and let us know what you think. HoofPrints has taken over the production of the popular blacksmith calendar, and we're adding our own special touches! This version will be in FULL COLOR, and will include numerous additional small images, featuring ads for tools, equipment and more. Descriptive and informational text will accompany. See close-ups of the new color pages on our Facebook page here.

Sarah K. Andrew's Horses and Hope Calendars

#CALSKA13 Sarah K. Andrew's 2013 Horses and Hope Calendar Price - $19.95 (100% of profit goes to charity) Printed in full color on heavy paper Coil bound calendar opens to 12"x24" 2013 Calendar Quantity Sarah K. Andrew's Horses and Hope 2013 Calendar The 2012 debut calendar contained over 100 beautiful photographs of auction horses. Thanks to the support of horse lovers all over, it raised nearly $40,000. for One Horse At A Time, helping hundreds of horses in need directly, and untold others indirectly through increased public awareness. Now that photographer Sarah K. Andrew and HoofPrints' owner Gina Keesling have one calendar's worth of experience to draw upon, the 2013 version promises to be even more exciting - even more creative, and as always, inspirational and positive. 2013 Calendar now in stock Gina's note: The most astonishing thing about all these lovely photographs is how much "soul" you see in the horses. Shooting pictures in this environment is incredibly challenging. The lighting is bad. The animals are stressed and unpredictable. The quarters are cramped - it's hard to get far enough away and/or at the best angle. There's undesirable clutter in the background. The list goes on. But, you look at these - it's like Sarah's got angels helping her out. They're truly divinely inspired, and HoofPrints is proud to be a part of this project. To see all the months click here.

Horses and Hope 2012 Calendar is still available

#CALSKA12 Sarah K. Andrew's Horses and Hope 2012 Calendar Price - $14.95 Sale price $10.00 (100% of this amount goes to charity) Full color on heavy paper Calendar opens to 12"x24" 2012 Calendar Quantity Sarah K. Andrew's Horses and Hope 2012 Calendar This calendar illustrates the remarkable accomplishments of a group of folks who saw a very big problem, and set about solving it. Each week, dozens of nice horses were being sold at an auction house. Trouble was, most nights there were more horses than bidders, and the bulk of the herd was being sold to the feedlot. These horses collected in a pen until there was a truckload, then, unfortunately they were "shipped". Instead of sitting around complaining about how awful this is, a group of dedicated women jumped in and did something. Award-winning equine photographer Sarah K. Andrew makes time to photograph every horse sold to the feedlot. Volunteers evaluate the horses the best they can and a large network of horse people distribute photos and descriptions of the horses, from Facebook to feed stores. They work with the owner of the auction to resell the horses who didn't get a high enough bid to leave the sale. Since the effort began in November 2009, no horses have shipped to slaughter from the auction house, and nearly 3,000 horses have been purchased out of the feedlot. The photos in this calendar were taken of the horses at auction and in their new homes. 100% of the profits from the calendar sales will be donated to a dedicated fund with One Horse At a Time, Inc.; the funds will be used for the aid of horses in need. Gina's note: The most astonishing thing about all these lovely photographs is how much "soul" you see in the horses. Shooting pictures in this environment is incredibly challenging. The lighting is bad. The animals are stressed and unpredictable. The quarters are cramped - it's hard to get far enough away and/or at the best angle. There's undesirable clutter in the background.

Where's the money going?

100% of the profit from the sale of this calendar goes to One Horse At A Time. This amount is approaching $40,000. to date, and One Horse At A Time has distributed it wisely and judiciously in ways that an average person wanting to help could not. They are incredibly well networked, both with equine service providers and with entities displaying need. They monitor political happenings that affect the equine industry. They've been around the block and are not apt to be duped by someone scamming for funds. In short, they are doing all the necessary things to make sure monies get where they can do the most good. Stuff that we all wish we could but don't have the time (or stomach) for. If you want to give them a hand, you can do so by purchasing a Horses and Hope Calendar.

Blacksmith Postcards

Package of 25 assorted black and white postcards - was $17.50 Sale price - $8.75 per package of 25 *Special Note* The gentleman who makes these calendars and postcards is considering ceasing production on them, so it is likely that these will be the last one's available - don't wait to order, our stock is limited. Quantity

HoofPrints owner Gina Keesling's note: "Single blacksmith postcards sell for much more than this on ebay - this is a great deal for anyone crafty to frame these up, make collages, do scrapbooks, etc. All the cool stuff I was planning to do with them when I got time. I've finally decided to move on and let them go. You can get inexpensive black frames at the dollar store, frame these up and hang them as a group on the wall in your den. Stick a couple worn-out tools up there, and an empty Hooflex can or two... you'll be as quaint as Cracker Barrel!"
