Welcome to My Shelf Life!

My name is Sara and I've been part of the model horse hobby for over 30 years. My collecting focus is original finish plastic, with a lean towards vintage and collectability, but I have a little bit of everything on the shelves. I love attending live shows and I have judged at some of the hobby's biggest events including NAN and the BreyerFest Open Show. 

​

This is a hobby blog where I talk about my own collection, the latest events in the model horse world, history, collectability, and whatever else comes to mind.
