Assemble Angel Body:
-
Take 4 strands of raffia, hold together
and tie a knot at one end. Tie the knot over again until it is large enough
that it will not slip through the holes in your larger wooden oval beads
(body).
-
Thread two large oval beads (body)
onto the group of raffia strands and slide them down to the knot.
-
To make the arms, take one of the four
strands of raffia and thread 2 of the smaller oval beads onto it.
-
Slide the beads to the end of the raffia
strand to meet the large oval bead (body).

-
Tie a knot in the raffia strand at
the end of the second arm bead. You will need to tie this knot a few times
so that it will be a large enough knot to keep from slipping through the
hole in the small oval beads (arms).
-
Repeat steps 3-5 above for the other
arm.
-
Thread the last two strands of raffia
through the round bead (head) and slide the bead to meet the large oval
bead (body)
-
Tie a knot in the raffia strands at
the top of the round bead (head) to secure the body. Again, make
sure that you tie the knot enough times to keep it from slipping into the
hole in the bead.
-
Trim the ends of the raffia strands
so that 1/4" is sticking out beyond the knots.

-
Paint your angels body and arms white.
-
Cut two pieces of the 1 1/2" gathered
lace long enough to go around the top rim of each of the large oval beads
(body)
-
Using your hot glue gun, glue the first
piece of lace around the top rim of the bottom large oval bead (body).
-
Then do the same thing with the other
piece of lace only around the top rim of the top large oval bead (body).
(This creates her dress.)
-
Cut two pieces of the 1" lace long
enough to go around the small oval beads (arms).
-
Use your hot glue gun to glue one of
these pieces of lace to the top rim of the bead closest to the head of
the angel.
-
Repeat for the other arm. (This creates
the sleeves of her dress.)
-
Glue on doll hair or string, a halo
of gold wire, and a pair of angel wings.
Assemble Angel Napkin Ring:
-
Take a plain napkin ring, (wood is
good) center the angels wings to the napkin ring and glue it in place with
your hot glue gun.
Done!
You are now ready to decorate
your Christmas Table with these cute holiday Angels!
Or, Use the Angel decoration
on name tags or pins to wear.
