Browbands. This one was custom-made (at a reasonable price) by HPF designs. These pictures don't do the browband justice -- the colors are rich amber/gold/orange. Click the image to expand it and get more detail.
I contacted the owner and told her which of her beadwork browbands I liked, but asked if it was available in chestnut-compatible colors. Well, she not only did a browband in custom colors, she used a new design. I just love it!

Very pretty. Riley is going to look quite smart in his competition debut. OR he is going to look quite smart schooling. *G*
ReplyDeleteI love the bling browbands, but since I'm not currently competing, my Boys are stuck with plain. *sigh*
He may be in a schooling show on June 13 -- He'll have his nice bling on then!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have great taste! But.. is it just me, or does the bead work have an asymmetrical pattern? I think I'd like it more if it were symmetrical. But those colours are great!
ReplyDeletelexie to be honest i'm not sure -- I do like aymmetrical things though.
ReplyDeleteI've seen a lot of "browband" sites but the work of this artist is, by far, the most unique and most striking I've yet to see (great discovery, Stacey!) and; like you, I won't be able to buy "just" one and since there are so many to choose from plus she does custom too; well, what fun I'll have on this little online shopping adventure! Moreover, Riley will look ever-so-handsome in his new browband! I'm certain your boys appreciate you since you're always making sure that Harv and Riley are up-to-date with all the latest gear!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bead-work. I really like the names of the various styles, like "solar flare" for a matching cavesson/browband combination. I wonder how the beads are anchored in the band.
ReplyDeleteRiley will look awesome in his asymmetry!
Stop stop stooooop!

Thank you for increasing my 2010 horse budget yet again - I think your blog is verging on "highly dangerous" for my pocketbook!
Thanks for your posts, they are insightful and a pleasure to read! And hope you and Riley have a great season!
