RocknBLeather Report post Posted February 7, 2008 Hi There, I make Bronc Halters for people, mostly with a lot of rhinestones for the barrel racers. This was my first attempt at making one without the bling factor. Tina Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cherokee55 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 I really like it! Not much into the bling stuff myself. Dumb question, do you do the basket weave first than the barb wire stamp? Saw a people belt stamped like this at Tandy several years ago want to make one but my practice attempts look pretty yucky Janet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saw a people belt stamped like this at Tandy several years ago want to make one but my practice attempts look pretty yucky Janet Hi Janet, You do the basket stamping first then the barbwire around the border last. You want to do the basket stamp as close to your border line as possible, then the barbwire gives it a nice finished edge. This was my second attemped at the basket stamp, it all came together with such ease that it surprised me. Do some practice runs on a scrap, it is alot more forgiving than you think. Thanks for looking, Tina Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RocknBLeather Report post Posted February 7, 2008 RockinBwere you at the NCHA Finals? No, but I wish I had been there!! I have only been to one event where I sold some work, It was here in Oakdale, Ca where I live. I do ship bronc halters all over the U.S. and Canada, all of the work I get is via the internet. Thanks, Tina Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dually Report post Posted May 7, 2008 Nice work Tina! I feel like I may be the last guy out there without a barb wire stamp, and it sure looks nice. What do you line the back with? I use shearling, but I can't tell on yours. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrazyCowgirlCreations Report post Posted November 9, 2012 Tina - I really like the basket weave/barb wire combination along with the matching conchos. I'd take this over "bling" any day! Nice work Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
