Arrow Porcelain Angel




Material:
Porcelain doll
Gathered lace
Angel wings of choice
Gold Filigree
Ribbon bow
Gold ring
Wire
Wire cutters
Pliers
Hot glue gun and glue

Instructions:
I purchased the porcelain doll at a local dollar store. It is a complete doll with porcelain body, arms, legs and head. She was dressed, but not very nicely.

I removed all of her clothes and measured the waist area. Then, cut a piece of gathered lace the length of her waist plus ½ inch. Feed a piece of wire through the gather of the lace, wrap around the doll's waist and twist the wire with pliers to secure. Secure the lace seam at the back with a little glue. I did the same for the neck area, using a lace smaller in width than the lace used for the skirt. This creates a skirt and top for the doll.

Apply a small dot of glue to the front center top and back center top to keep the lace from exposing the doll chest and back. Glue a small ribbon bow to the front center of the doll, glue a gold ring to the doll head for a halo and glue angel wings to the back of the doll.

On top of your wings, glue a gold filigree and then on top of the filigree, glue a small ribbon bow [see photo of back of doll].

These are beautiful little dolls that make wonderful ornaments or add to gift packages.
