Meet the Artist

Hello! I am Afton the heart and soul behind Branded Cactus Co. A mother and wife to cowboys, we rodeo as a family together full time. I compete as a timed event cowgirl, and my husband has converted from a roughy to a professional rodeo clown. 

A dream became a reality in 2025 when I took the leap to start Silver Smithing. A creative outlet to share beauty with the world. All stones are hand chosen, every piece is hand forged, and built with a prayer. Prayers for joy, strength, kindness, and protection. It's not just a piece of jewelry for me. It's a piece of  myself made from straight love, that I am sending on a grand journey to take on life with you.
