How to Make

Simple Hair Combs

finished combs

Materials:

2 clear plastic hair combs
1 pkg 8 mm crystal cut beads
Aleene's Quick Dry Tacky Glue

Some projects, I prefer to use the Quick Dry Tacky Glue. Anything where I will end up holding things together while waiting for the glue to dry is basically how I decide.

glue first bead First, glue a bead to the edge of the comb. Hold that until the bead doesn't move when you remove your hand. Put the comb aside while the glue finishes drying and repeat on the other comb.
angle comb for other beads When both are dry, balance the opposite end of the comb so that the comb angles. Add a drop of glue and place a bead and keep doing this until you reach the top. If at any point, the beads start to slip in the wet glue, stop at that bead, hold it in place while it starts to set, and then wait until all beads are dry before starting again.

Set them aside to dry, when the glue is clear, they're wearable.
