• To begin, wrap some green sewing thread firmly around the tips of a pair of tweezers. You can color thread with acrylic paint, by pulling the thread through a small bit of paint on your fingers.
• Use a pin to touch a bit of white glue to the thread to hold it together and trim off the ends.
• Use a bit of masking tape or other heavy tape to hold the tweezer tips together while the glue dries.
• When the glue has dried, gently move the thread wreath so that it is close to the tops of the tweezers but don't remove it.
