Cowboy Boot Beads

Horse, boot & Cowgirl Beads

These are my basic lines of glass cowboy boot beads. So if you see something you like let me know which ones as I am always making variations on these beads. Each bead is unique, but I usually have something similar in stock or I will make it for you. All boots are in the round with the design on both sides. All pendant size boots have soles and earring size boots do not have soles. All boots will stand by themselves for display. Boot pendant beads are 1-1.5" high with a vertical hole.

Skip to the bottom photo of the Exotic boots. They have cool details that I've been wanting to try for some time: ankle silver chains, platinum toes, cubic zirconia .

Imagine these small and in pairs because as earrings they are cute! Boots earrings start at $30 for one color, $35 for simple detail, and $40 for complex design, $50 for electroformed spur. Many of the designs below are available in matching earrings. Coorindated hat earrings ($35) are pretty cool idea too! I make heart beads with horizontal holes to go with the boots so you can have a bracelet too! Boot beads do not, ever have horizontal holes, sorry.

Spurs are electroformed copper on the bead. This process in the bath alone takes 8-10 hours. Check out my techniques page. Stones are cubic zirconia and semi-precious. Presently electroforming is an additional $20 per bead. Electroforming on boot earrings is $20 additional. Stone prices vary.

Glass Boots with landscapes

Landscape boots are $50-60. Left to right they are: Mountains & plains, Night scape, Red desert, Blue bird, Forest.

Silhouette boots are $35-40. Forest or Flower design on a varigated color background. These were inspired by 1930 cut paper silhouettes. I just saw a cutout with figures on horseback in silhouette... a challange to make one like that!
