Trying to copy a border for a Meanea holster that I saw on an auction site. Need a lot of practice yet, but what's your guys opinions? Planning a flower in the middle.

That's a nice border in its simplicity. I've seen simple borders like that in photos of Meanea holsters. It's a good look.

Thanks Marshall. That beader blade from BK really made a difference! Little bit of a learnin curve with that and the embossing wheel!

I like it. Are you using a beveler or a modeling spoon?

I agree it's a nice simple and good look. I've got some original Meanea and others in my own collection with the same or similar border. I use it a lot myself.

Nice simple but classy borders for working rigs. That was popular with several northern plains territory saddlers apparently. I have some from Meanea, Furstnow, and another unknown in my collection with similar border.
