A cable strain relief that includes an over-molded portion affixed to a cable and a flexible decorative boot. The decorative boot is passed through an opening in an enclosure. The cable is passed through a cylindrical space form in the decorative boot until the over-molded piece engages the walls of the cylindrical space, holding it in place. The over-molded portion is positioned within the decorative boot such that a flange is seated on a collar of the decorative boot within the enclosure.
