     Location: Northwest | I'm not very good at coming up with present ideas.... I'd like to get a cool/fun/or unique gift for a good friend who's graduating high school. She will be college rodeoing in the fall. She has quite a bit of nicer tack stuff but most of it is shared between her and her mom. So far the only thing that has come to mind is a US Rider plan (is that too boring? lol) Up to a $200ish budget. Could be horse related or not :) Help! |

| I do not know if Walmart still has these or not, but I had a throw made from a barrel racing picture of me. It is big enough to cover up with and the picture is woven into the throw. (washable too) They were $99 at Walmart. I ordered mine from QVC. I cried when I got mine because it looked so good. Let me see if I can find a link. |

| Here is a link BE SURE TO GET THE WOVEN BLANKET. The fleece on is crap. AND THERE HAS BEEN A ROLLBACK. $70 now. Get the bigger size so it is useful. Mine just had the picture on frame--nothing. Walmart has all kinds of frames for the edge of the throw. Go to Walmartphot.com click on home and gifts then woven blankets.
This is a link to ONE possibility.

  Location: Oklahoma | You can look into a custom beaded over and under, I know a very talented person I can get you in touch with. Over reach boots, splint boots. A custom bronc halter with her brand or name in the middle. Im sure whatever you come up with she will love it. |

    Location: NW. Florida | Get her Mother to get you some of the shoes off of her rodeo horse and get someone to weld a buckle holder out of them. You weld them like a Christmas tree starting with one on top, then two under it, then three under it, and so forth. Take horseshoe nails and stick in the lower two holes and you can set the buckle on the nails and it leans back against the shoe. |

      Location: The best kept secret in TX | Teskey's has case knives and engraves them. We got a case yellow handled trapper and got a name on the handle and a year on the blade. It was a hit. Lasts forever. Call them or order online. They ship very fast if you are not close. This is cute too. And cheap. Let me resize.

      Location: Slipping down the slope of old age. Boo hoo. | One of those tool kit boxes is a good one -- I think they are about $20 at Home Depot....all those little tools (screwdriver, a wrench or three) that you need if you are out on your own... Good for boy or girl. |

| I always give money. I know it might be the easy way, but face it, ALL kids need money - if to buy stuff to go to college or whatever. |

| A tool kit, small human first aid kit, and Equimedic trailer first aid kit. I got a first aid kit for myself for graduation 9 years ago and I just keep refilling and using the sucker to this day! Also won an Equimedic trailer kit while I was in college and that thing was so handy. Again, I've continued to refill as I use supplies and it's been great. My parents gave me a tool kit for a birthday gift while I was in college and that's also been super handy to have! They're silly things that you don't think about needing until you need them, and then you're so glad you have them. |

These are really cool! We ordered one a few years back for a friend of ours, but we got it through Costco. It turned out awesome! |
