Christmas Tree Angel Gifts

Here I am, back with the gifts I made my scrapping friends.

An angel each for the tree top.

Here are all ten angels. 

This is how they looked early in the making! 

Here is the one I made for our tree from a kit by Sue Dolman of Candle House Crafts a few years ago.

Sue doesn't make kits any more but you can still buy the pattern and some of the materials from her.

Here is a closer look at each of the angels. They are made to match the colour scheme of each persons Christmas tree decorations.

The angels are made from:

Body - flesh felt

Shoes - white felt

Wings - Vylene.

Bloomers and dress - white cotton lawn

Halo - gold or silver pipe cleaner

Eyes - Black seed beads

Mouth - DMC embroidery thread

Hair - Tapestry wool

Decorations - 3mm satin ribbon, seed beads and star sequins

xXx Hope you all have a great Christmas girls. xXx
