To simplify this actions from accepted answer, you can also create Category for UIView (since this works for all subclasses of UIView, not only for textfields:

UIView+Additions.h:

#import 

@interface UIView (Additions)
- (void)setBorderForColor:(UIColor *)color 
                    width:(float)width 
                   radius:(float)radius;
@end

UIView+Additions.m:

#import "UIView+Additions.h"

@implementation UIView (Additions)

- (void)setBorderForColor:(UIColor *)color 
                    width:(float)width
                   radius:(float)radius
{
    self.layer.cornerRadius = radius;
    self.layer.masksToBounds = YES;
    self.layer.borderColor = [color CGColor];
    self.layer.borderWidth = width;
}

@end

Usage:

#import "UIView+Additions.h"
//...
[textField setBorderForColor:[UIColor redColor]
                       width:1.0f
                      radius:8.0f];
