Handmade hobbyhorses: From Havelland to Bremen!

Hobby horsing is extremely popular, not just in Finland or Sweden, but also here. In Dallgow-Döberitz, this passion is realized with a lot of passion and craftsmanship. A father from Bremen recently traveled 300 kilometers to give his daughter a very special gift: a handmade hobby horse from the talented Tina Twelkmeyer. She discovered her passion for making hobby horses between 2017 and 2018, inspired by the emerging trend of hobby horsing. Her first creations were made from scraps of fabric and broomsticks and quickly became popular. Today she has registered a flourishing business that is not only driven by her passion, but also by the high demand [maz-online.de].

Tina Twelkmeyer not only has experience in sewing, but also in horse breeding, which helps her design the detailed hobby horses. She uses specially designed patterns and uses airbrush paint to give the horse heads the desired, lively look. The production of such a hobbyhorse takes around eight hours - a testament to the loving craftsmanship that goes into each individual piece.

Prices and trends

The price range for the hobbyhorses ranges from around 70 euros for smaller foals to 200 euros for larger models. Breeds such as Fjord horses, dapple grays and Knabstruppers are particularly popular. In addition to the horses, Tina also produces accessories such as halters and blankets that meet the wishes of little riders. Demand particularly peaks in the run-up to Christmas, when she sometimes sells up to 70 hobbyhorses in December. We owe this information to the report from maz-online.de.

The hobbyhorses are now not just a toy but part of a serious sport known as hobby horsing. This sport, which does not involve live animals, has become increasingly popular and is attracting more and more fans, as shz.de reports. Markets specifically for hobby horsing are already taking place in Barmstedt, which continue to stimulate interest and enthusiasm for this sport.

Her online shop is now Tina Twelkmeyer's most important economic mainstay, which can even surpass her training and vaulting business, which is only recovering slowly after the Corona crisis. A seamstress is now helping her to cope with the growing order situation, but Tina continues to only produce as much as her team and her team can handle.

Through her commitment and passion, Tina Twelkmeyer is helping to ensure that the world of hobby horsing becomes an integral part of children's and youth culture not only in Scandinavia, but also in Germany. This results in an exciting development that is worth keeping an eye on in the coming years.
