Handkerchief angel with crooked halo, anyone have instructions?
by
Floy Beasley
I made these years ago and now can't find the instructions (I have pieces which I put together for these primitive pictures, but no instruction sheet. 8" angel using: men's large handkerchief or doily with a slip under; moss; raffia; styfoam ball (also used swet gum balls once) ; pipe cleaner; gold pipe cleaner for halo; thin wire; lace or some fancy fabric for the outside skirt, .
rough "draft".... just holding it together on an upside down vase
from the side
remember, just holding this loosely in place.... can't hardly see halo
dress
fabric for some of the skirts (over slip)
the beginnings...
the hair
this is a rough angel I am simply trying to hold together long enough to take a picture

I made these a few years ago using vintage napkins. Styrofoam ball for the head, ribbon around the neck and moss for the hair. For the halo I used either just plain wire or beads on the wire. Also used lavender for the head part. Used glue gun to hold the "hair",
