Lace Angels
By: Debra for Creative Ramblings
Nothing says grace and elegance like lace, which
makes them the perfect material to use to
make an angel. You can use this design is so
many ways!
Materials:
Lace
1 inch pom poms
Sewing needle
Thread (to match lace)
Gold cord
Gold thread
Embellishments, such as rosettes,
ribbons, buttons, etc
Scissors
Hot glue gun or craft glue
Pin backs
Instructions:
1.) Cut your lace. Depending on the width of
the lace you are using, you'll be cutting the lace
anywhere from about 4 to 8 inches in length. It
depends on how full you want the dress to be.
Thread your sewing needle and knot the end.
2.) You're going to start at the upper edge of
the lace and run the thread through the lace,
like you would a basting or running stitch,
accordion style. Once you've reached the end,
push the lace to the knotted end, so that it's
gathered together tightly. Keep it pinched
together and run you needle through again and
pull tight to secure. Don't fasten off.

if you cant find white fur.
Trace the wing pattern in the wrong side of the
fur.

Allow a wider opening if using fur.

Instructions:
1.) First, hot-glue the wagon wheel to the tube.
(Craft glue works too, but I'm impatient enough
that I will put up with having to remove all the
pesky hot-glue strings.)
3.) Then attach the bow-tie to the back of your
angel, just underneath the collar.

Instructions:
Head
1.) Paint wooden bead your choice of skin tone
and set aside to dry.
Hair
2.) Scrunch ball of batting into an appropriate
shape for the angel's hair.
3.) Lay ball on the center fold of a piece of
newspaper. Since the ball is so lightweight and
would be "blown away" by the plume of spray
paint, secure the ball gently by placing your
left/right hand behind the loosely folded
newspaper.
4.) Spray thoroughly using your other hand. [Do
this outside or in the garage to avoid inhaling
the fumes as well as to avoid gold spray on
other surfaces. The very fine mist does travel!]
Rotate the ball of batting gently to get all the
surfaces.
Materials:
Tools:
Dress
5.) Fold dress ribbon in half with best side out.
Loop necktie ribbon around fold to form top of
dress.
6.) Tie necktie tightly to gather the dress at the
neckline. Tie the ends into a pretty bow.
Optional: Cut the bottom of the dress on an
angle to make it appear more flowing, as an
angel's gown might be.3.) Screw the eye hook
into the hole.
Wings
7.) Make a loop with the ribbon you've chosen
for the wings. Tie the ends of the gold hanger
cord together using an overhand loop.
