- 1 spool thread
- 6 small beads
- 1 bottle glue

Steps:

- Hand sew print yo yo to white yo yo, 1/3 of the way down on the white yo yo to form "wings"
- Sew a button in the middle of the print yo yo.
- Draw eyes and use rouge or lipstick to make cheek color on the wood disc (face of the angel).
- Glue face onto angel and hand sew plastic ring (halo) above face.
- Glue beads to the top of the face for "hair".
- Add ribbon in a loop to the back of the wings for hanging the ornament.
