Step 1: (angel photo 1) Gather all the materials from the list below:
Light blue, white, purple and pink sponge paper
Copper wire
Long nose pliers
Scissors
Concrete glue
Crochet thread
Step 2: (angel photo 2) Cut several strips of light blue, white, purple and pink sponge paper. The thickness of the strips will depend on what you want.
Step 3: (angel photo 3) Tightly roll the white strip. This will be the body of the angel.
Step 4: (angel photo 4) Seal the roll at the end with concrete glue.
Step 5: (angel photo 5) Push the middle of the white roll to form a cone.
Step 6: (angel photo 6) Tightly roll the pink sponge strip. Seal this with concrete glue afterward. This will be the head of the angel.
Step 7: (angel photo 7) Cut several 2 to 3 centimeters of purple strips. This will be the hair of the angel.
Step 8: (angel photo 8) Glue the first pair of hair strip on the head of the angel. Make sure to roll the end of each strip.
Step 9: (angel photo 9) Glue the next pair of hair on top of the former hair. Do the same thing with this pair. Let it dry.
Step 10: (angel photo 10) Glue the head to the cone body.
Step 11: (angel photo 11) Cut a pair of 5 centimeter pink strip. Roll each end and stick this on the side of the angel’s body. This will be the angel’s arms.
Step 12: (angel photo 12) Cut a pair of light blue strip at least 10 centimeters long. Loosely curl one side of each strip then glue the non-curled end at the back of the angel. This will be the angel’s wing.
Step 13: (angel photo 13) Glue the curl that touches the bottom sides of the body just to secure the whole wing.
Step 14: (angel photo 14) Using long nose pliers, make a loop from the copper wire.
Step 15: (angel photo 15) Plant the loop on the top of the angel’s head using concrete glue.
Step 16: (angel photo 16) Cut a reasonable length of crochet thread and tie the thread tightly in the loop.
Step 17: (angel photo 17) You can now put your angel ornament on your Christmas tree.
