Instructions in 7 steps

Besides the articles listed below, you also need: White strong paper, paintbrush, pencil, scissors, floral wire

And this is how it works:

Step 1

Start by bending the halo. To do this, cut about 50 cm of floral wire.

Step 2

After about 4 cm, bend the wire into the shape of a ring (with a diameter of about 2 cm). The halo looks beautiful with 4 more rings.

Step 3

Join the 5 rings together with wire and wrap the remaining wire around the 4 cm wire (from the beginning) for greater stability.

Step 4

Paint a surface area (measuring about 10 × 10 cm) of the white paper with the nougat-coloured all-purpose paint. Once the paint is dry, you can wipe it to get a metallic sheen. To do this, use a damp painting sponge to apply the brilliant gold metallic paint and wipe gently over the nougat-coloured surface.

Step 5

When the surface is dry, draw the wings using the template and cut them out.

The cutting pattern can be found in the PDF version of the Craft Idea. Just download it.

Step 6

For the sheet music book, you can cut out a stave from, e.g. "Silent Night" and fold it into a sheet music.

Step 7

To finish your guardian angel, first glue the decorative feather, then the halo and finally the wings to the angel's upper back. Affix the sheet music book with two small drops of glue.
