DIRECTIONS:
Cut 3 lengths of wire 4" long. String 2 of the wires with the
seed beads in color #1. String the third wire with the seed
beads in color # 2. Place the wires together and twist together
to create a spiral look. Twist the ends of the wire together to
hold beads in place. Fold under wire ends.
Cut a 12" piece of wire to attach the spiral to the comb.
Leaving a short tail, wrap wire around the spiral and through
the teeth of the comb to secure. String about 6 seed beads onto
the wire and wrap over the spiral. Bring the wire to the front
through the teeth. On the wire add a few seed beads, a larger
glass bead and more seed beads. Wrap around the comb on top of
the spiral. Continue adding beads onto the wire, seed and larger
beads, then wrapping around the comb until you reach the end.
Thread and wrap the wire along the back to secure. Cut off
excess wire and tuck the ends under.
