Update: March 7, 2013
I went to Micheal's Craft store and picked up some supplies, determined to make my own browband for Ella. After I got home I played around a bit with the different options I had for a design then decided on one and set to work. Some photos of the different options I had.
FIRST Option
SECOND Option
THIRD Option
FOURTH Option
It didn't take very long, but it was hard threading the needle threw the leather. I managed to prick myself a couple of times and drew blood, ha ha. BUT, with a bit of determination and persistence I was able to sew and glue on (combination of both) the beaded design. NOW, I will determine how secure the gems are and whether or not they will hold up or withstand constant use as I will be using it often ~ at which point I will determine a better method of adhering the jewelry to the leather browband, IF necessary. Here are a few photos of the progress and finished product:

I want to make Ella a jeweled browband. I'm not sure how to do it, but I have a few ideas. Researched some examples and looked at some supplies. Will update this post when I pick-up her bridle and start working on it.
