Hi

Please can someone tell me where I can find a tutorial for making tiaras & combs and are they hard to make I'd love to give it a go?

Thank you

Hi, Mail order beads in Nottingham do a very good book on the subject, I have it. They are fiddly to do but with practice, you can make some lovely things.

Hi Jupiter1

Thank you for the offer, I was after a tutorial as I would like to experiment in making tiaras and combs. Do you have a basic tutorial?

Hi,
Sorry I don't have any tutorials. I usually learn via trial and error!!

Whilst looking for something else I came across this which may be of use to you.

I do tiaras myself and when I started I found it was trial and error along with imagination that was required. The twisting of the wire can make your fingers sore so a piece of elastopast on your finger helps as does a small diy clamp so that you can hold the end of the wire tight but have both hands free.

Have fun. Daisy
