Instructions


Step 1. Gather your supplies.

 

Step 2.

 

Cut a 12″ piece of gold craft wire.

 

Step 3.

 

String on small gold sequins leaving an inch on each end of the wire. Make sure your sequins are not all facing the same way. Every other should be facing the opposite direction, in order to fill more space and use less sequins.

 

Step 4.

 

Twist the two ends together to secure. Do not cut the inch long tail.

 

Step 5.

 

Paint (3) jumbo craft sticks and (2) mini craft sticks white. On the mini craft sticks, leave about a 1/4″ unpainted for the angel’s hands.

 

Step 6.

 

Glue the jumbo craft sticks together as shown. These will be the angels body.

 

Step 7.

 

Glue a 4th jumbo craft stick to the back of the sticks from the previous step. Make sure to leave about an inch of the craft stick showing to be the angel’s head.

 

Step 8.

 

Glue the mini craft sticks to the body, crossing the hands as shown.

 

Step 9.

 

Glue (2) more mini craft sticks popping out from the bottom of the dress.

 

Step 10.

 

Tape the halo to the back of the angel’s head.

 

Step 11.

 

Glue feathers and give your angel her wings!

 

Step 12.

 

Add a mouth and two closed eyes with a marker or pen.
