Shabby Angel Wing Ornaments

"Angels We Have Heard on High"

What a peaceful way to depict Christmas.

"With Angels all around."

Raising their beautiful voices in song

to declare the coming of the Messiah..

Watching over us all..

Taking the utmost care to guard and protect.

I can remember when I was a little girl,

the thought of Angels at Christmas

always gave me the warmest, most peaceful

feelings inside.

A feeling that I was in the best of care

and no matter what,

everything was going to be ok.

Today, I'm sharing with you some ornaments

that I have made.

They would make wonderful gifts or little additions to

a Christmas shop display to sell.

I used an angel wing die to cut the shapes. First, out of

some stiff cardboard that I had saved and then

from the vintage sheet music to cover the cardboard.

I cut popsicle sticks and I hot glued them to the

back to hold the wings just the right 

distance apart.

I used a glue stick to adhere the paper to the cardboard.

And then I began the fun process of 

decorating them with vintage doilies, buttons, and 
 other things that I had on hand.

The embellishments were attached with 

Tacky glue and hot glue.

For the hanger, I tore a strip of white sheet and

and after centering the strip, I used hot glue to attach 

the strip.

And...

Here they are!

I hope that your Christmas celebration 

has already started and the 

stresses of the season are few

and the blessings be many! 

Here's a thought for the season:

"What is Christmas?"

It is tenderness for the past, 

courage for the present,

hope for the future.

It is a fervent wish that every cup may

overflow with blessings rich and eternal,

and that every path may lead to peace. 

Thank you so much for stopping by!

 Love...Joy.. and Peace to you,

Tamara
