I like bling!  I have never found a brow band that has the right colors and enough bling.  So, I decided to make one.  It was so much fun, I made another one.  Then I made another, and another.  I gave some to friends, who mostly liked them.  I am now making very blingy, a little blingy, subdued (colors but no bling), and whimsical brow bands.  I am offering them to equestrians as another way to donate to the same charities as my FADS shows - the cost covers materials ($ goes to me) and a donation ($ goes to one of four charities that you designate).

Some of the brow bands are ready-made; others can be custom ordered with your show color(s) and/or your favorite color(s).

Since the beta biothane brow bands have snaps, it is easy to exchange brow bands on the bridle - all the more reason to get multiple brow bands!

Do you have a Pas de Deux or Quadrille or club with color themes?  Get brow bands to match your theme.

I hope you like the brow bands and enjoy donating to the designated charities.

Please note, this is a hobby, not a business; although I recoup some of my costs, I do not make a profit.

HOW "BROW BANDS FOR CHARITIES" WORKS

COST: The cost of each brow band is the materials costs plus a minimum $30 donation.  For example:
  • Beta Biothane: Materials $15 + $30 minimum donation = $45 minimum.
  • Commercial Leather: Materials $35 + $30 minimum donation = $65 minimum. 
Any donation more than $30 is appreciated! 
Add $5 if brow band will be mailed.
NOTE: I am phasing out the leather brow bands.  See the stockage list on the order form below.

BROW BAND MATERIALS: 
  • Beta biothane with leather or beta biothane side strips.  1" wide, black, chestnut, brown, and royal blue straight beta biothane, as in the diagram below.  Side strip colors as in the diagram below.  All have snaps. 
  • Beta biothane with patent beta biothane center.  1" wide, black, brown, chestnut and royal blue straight.  All have snaps.  Only for 10mm round acrylic beads.
  • All leather brow band: 1" wide.  I have a few black, straight and U-shape, of various sizes, in stock.  I am phasing out leather brow bands - see the stockage list on the order form below.
Picture
Picture
BEAD MATERIALS AND COLORS: 
  • Beads are made of various materials.  Some are delicate and others are less delicate, which will be noted with each stone type. 
  • I stock many colors; other colors may be available for custom orders.

METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION:  Beta biothane brow bands consist of 1" beta biothane with sewn on strips on each side and snap at each end to form bridle loop.  All beads are strung using strong beading wire then hand sewn onto the brow band material using monofilament beading cord.
