Angels for crafting – Beautiful ideas made from extraordinary materials

You don't need to have a big Christmas budget to make effective decorations. Look around your own home and you are sure to find materials for the angels. Purchase several wooden balls and spray paint from the craft store. Get some sparkly gold or silver bows and a pencil. Paint a face on each ball and set aside. Collect bird feathers and cones from the garden or park - they can be used for the bodies.

Make cones for the bodies out of colorful paper

Old coffee filters can also be used - an angel can be made from 2-3 used coffee filters. For those who love pasta – collect pasta in different shapes – from farfalle for the wings, rigatoni for the body, treccine for the arms. Glue the elements together, spray them with color spray and decorate with a golden bow.

Make angels with sticks

On your next walk, collect twigs and then use them toto make pretty angels. You can make the wings from any material. Paper or fabric is best. You then glue these to the small sticks. For the face you will need painted wooden balls again.

Craft angels – Simple idea with shells

The shells that you collected on your last vacation can now also be used. Their shape is perfect for imitating an angel's dress. You can design the wings with ribbons, as shown in the picture. A really simple idea, don't you think?

Use corks and wooden beads for Christmas tree decorations

The next idea for angel crafts is very creative and super easy at the same time. Collect wine corks and glue the already prepared wooden balls onto them. You can make wings from the organza bow - and you've already made Christmas decorations. The small decorative figures can also be hidden in the Advent calendar as little surprises. We hope you enjoy crafting!
