Instructions:
- Wrap a piece of lace around a pine cone. Glue at back to keep it on.
- Break away a few pieces of pine cone to set the head on. Glue and set the head in place.
- Make the hair using the yarn. Glue a halo on the angel head and also glue the ribbon in the center of the ornament to hang her by.
- Take the 3 inch wide ribbon and cut 6 inches off. Fold in half and secure with a piece of floral wire. Fluff the ribbon on both sides. Glue this to the back of the angel.
- Take the red chenille stick and cut a 4 inch piece and add a bit of glue to the center of the back and attach to the angel head. Fold in at the ends a bit to form her hands. Glue in a small flower so it looks like she is holding it.
- Hang her on your tree or make several more for a table decoration.
Tip: Pine cones that do not like to stand up can be fixed by removing a few pieces of the pine cone off the bottom.
