For the star

You will need:

  • Strong cardboard
  • Cardboard Tube
  • Glue
  • Red paint
  • Glitter
  • Modge podge

What to do:

Trace a star pattern onto the cardboard and cut it out. I would suggest cutting two and glue them on top of each other if your cardboard is on the thinner side.

stars

Cut the tube to a length to fit your Christmas tree. Glue the star to the tube and paint red, gold or silver. Once the paint is dry, paint a layer of podge over the star and cover in glitter. Shake off excess glitter once dry.

Cut a square out of the gold crepe paper, fold and cut grooves to make the hair but do not cut all the way through. Make a hole in the top of the ball and use a toothpick to keep the hole open. Thread the hair through the toothpick and glue the hair in place. Glue on the eyes.

Make the dress by cutting a rectangular piece of crepe paper. Fold into a concertina shape and tie to the neck with a chenille stem.

Cut two wings out of the silver or white cardboard. Glue the wings to the back. Remove the toothpick and cut a piece of the chenille stem to form the halo. Insert one end of the chenille stem into the hole in the head. Finish the angel by drawing a smile on her face.
