To bring good luck, the horseshoe must lost by a horse and be found by you, with the open end facing your way. You must hang it over the door with the open end up, so the good fortune doesn't spill out.
This horseshoe was on the out building when we moved here, and it is luckily still hanging.

I do like this photograph. Nice to add the story that goes with horse shoes hung around the doorways.

And hopefully it has captured lots of good fortune for you! Love the photo... and the history behind the sign of good luck!
Thanks for stopping by! I don't feed the squirrels - they seem to do fine foraging for food themselves! But, now that you mention it, he really does look "well padded" which is good because our temps are below freezing up here!!
