This sweet little angel was so fun and easy to make! I saw a picture of one online and decided to see if I could make one on my own.

Here’s what you’ll need:

3 Thick Craft Sticks (this is what my daughter knows them as– when did they stop being popsicle sticks?)

2 Thin Craft Sticks

Glue

Glitter Glue

Scissors

Cardstock

Wood circles

White paint

Gold stickers

---

Step 1

Cut the tops off the three thick craft sticks. One should be slightly longer than the others.

Step2

Cut the thin craft stick in half.

Step 2

Paint the thick craft sticks white. Paint the thin crafts white, leaving the curve unpainted.

Step 3

Glue the two thick craft sticks onto the longer thick craft stick.

Step 4

Glue the thin craft sticks on top in “V” shape.

Step 5

Place gold sticker in the middle, underneath the hands.

Step 6

Cut cardstock into wing shapes.

Step 7

Glue wings to the back.

Step 8

Glue wooden circle to the wings

Step 9

Use glitter glue to put halo on wooden circle.

And you’re done!

I’m planning to use this for my Christmas village somehow and it’s been a great visual for talking to Ella about the true meaning of Christmas. I love being able to be creative for myself, my kids, and for this special holiday season.
