This lovely little angel has some pretty songs to sing. A wonderful gift for Mom or Grandma or even for your teacher!
What you'll need:
* 1 large white foam heart
* 2 medium white foam hearts
* 1 medium white foam circle
* Glittery gold chenille stick
* White glitter
* Pink glitter
* Pink acrylic paint
* Scruffy paint brush
* White craft glue
* Hot glue gun
* Black Sharpie marker
* Pin back
How to make it:
1. Mix a little white craft glue with some water.
2. Paint the white foam hearts with the glue mixture, then sprinkle white glitter all over them. Let dry, then tap off excess.
3. Use a scruffy paint brush and dip it into some pink paint. Dab off the excess paint onto a piece of paper towel until brush is almost dry. To make cheeks, paint small circles onto foam circle.
4. Use the Sharpie marker to draw on her eyes, eyelashes and mouth.
5. Hot glue the small hearts behind the larger upside down heart. The smaller hearts are the wings.
6. Bend the chenille stick about 2 inches up. Then use your glue stick to make the round halo by wrapping the chenille around the cap of the glue stick. Trim the excess.
7. Hot glue the halo to the back of the circle. This is the head.
8. Hot glue the head in place at the top of the upside down heart.
9. Pipe white craft glue onto the bottom of the large heart and up at the neckline under the circle. Sprinkle generously with pink glitter. Let dry and tap off excess.
10. Turn angel over and hot glue the pin back on.
Tips:
* If you don’t have white foam circles, you can paint other colors with white acrylic paint. You may need a couple of coats. Or, you can use other colors of foam for other skin tones, robes and wings. You can also use Woodsies for this project.
* Add a little more to this angel by gluing on short strands of curly doll hair, available at your local craft store.
* Make this project a magnet instead of a pin. Simply replace the pin back with a small round magnet.
