Now you will use the rest of the braid that you made to make the lead rope to match your Arabian style model horse halter. Tie the lead rope under the chin to the noseband, near the tassel. In the photo of the bay Breyer Proud Arabian mare, the lead rope is stretched off camera and placed over the edge of the chair, but you can also stretch it off camera and wedge it under a few books to keep it the right height if you do not have a doll handler. To take your halter off, gently slip it over the model's ears.
Now that you know how to make a simple play halter for a Breyer Arabian horse model, experiment with different materials. As you practice with a yard or thread halter, you're developing basic skills for stepping up to make a leather halter.
