Treasure Hunts!

One of the most fun parts of this hobby has never been about big shows or flashy sales, it’s the treasure hunts. Over the years, some of my favorite memories have been pulling into little flea markets, secondhand shops, or tucked-away antique stores and spotting a Breyer model hiding on a dusty shelf.

There’s something magical about those unexpected finds! The thrill of the chase, the surprise of discovery, and the stories that come with them. Sometimes the best treasures aren’t the rarest or most expensive pieces, but the ones you stumble across when you least expect it.

So here’s to every collector who knows the joy of keeping their eyes open, never passing by a little shop without peeking inside, and celebrating the “hunt” just as much as the “find.”

Below are 2 of my most treasured finds! I had a chance to do some hunting this weekend and found a few more common horses, but they were still so much fun to add to the shelf.
